Sugar, licorice extract (9%), ammonium chloride (6%), anti-caking agents (E470b, E551).
Licorice Pastilles open with a dry, powdery dissolve that releases concentrated salmiak and licorice the moment the tablet hits the tongue. The body is a pressed pastille with no starch or gum arabic, which gives it a unique chalky texture that crumbles gently. Each tablet delivers a deep licorice depth from nine percent real licorice extract packed into every single piece. The salmiak note arrives sharp and mineral from six percent ammonium chloride that pushes salt through the slow dissolve. Meanwhile, the powdery texture keeps the flavour concentrated and prevents the sweetness from overwhelming the salmiak underneath. As a result, the licorice and salmiak build into a pure, undiluted hit that lingers long after the tablet dissolves. The aroma is dark licorice root and mineral salmiak rising from each freshly opened roll. These salty licorice drops deliver one of the purest salmiak experiences in the entire Swedish candy range. The mouthfeel stays dry and powdery with a slow crumble that melts into a smooth, salty finish on the tongue. Overall, the concentrated licorice and bold salmiak in just four ingredients make this the most stripped-back licorice pick.
These pastilles come from Cloetta, one of the oldest confectionery companies in Sweden and the maker of the legendary Lakrisal. Licorice Pastilles use only four ingredients with no starch, no gum arabic and no gelatin in the recipe. The pressed tablet format is completely unique in the licorice world and creates a texture that no gummy or chew can match. Because the recipe is almost entirely sugar, licorice extract and ammonium chloride, the flavour is pure and undiluted. Each roll arrives packed fresh by Kandy Lover and shipped directly from Sweden. As a result, the salmiak stays sharp and the licorice stays rich and concentrated on arrival. If you prefer a chewy salmiak experience, try S-Mark Super Salt for the gelatin gummy version.
