DESCRIPTION

Licorice Pastels are perhaps the most refined of the candy-coated licorices. Each piece is thin with a tasty band of licorice inside surrounded by a bright pastel sugar coating. Bite into the candy and you'll experience a delightful snap and the blend of the sweet coating and the spirited licorice beneath. A cousin to the 19th century Good & Plenty, Licorice Pastels are especially festive, perfect for candy mixes, gift boxes, and even as a decoration atop a cake or other baked good. Of course, they're perfect as a treat anytime. Enjoy!

Historical Insights

For thousands of years, people covered fruit, nuts and seeds with sugary coatings, dating back to the ancient Romans. In the late 1800s, when machinery enabled candy-makers to quickly and inexpensively coat just about anything with sugar and chocolate, coated nuts, caramels, marshmallows, licorice and other tasty treats came along. Starting in the 1920s, bridge became the game to play, where players sat around tables for entire evenings. Snacks needed to be small enough to eat with their fingers without putting down their cards. Licorice Pastels is one of them!
