What it is
This is a classic confection, offering a chewy texture and a distinct anise flavor.

The twists are individually formed, making them easy to handle and share. The packaging is designed to keep the licorice fresh until opened.

Simply unwrap an individual licorice twist and enjoy its chewy texture and bold flavor. It is best eaten at room temperature to maintain its pliability. For a slightly different experience, some people enjoy chilling it briefly in the refrigerator, which can make it firmer. It can also be incorporated into baking projects, such as decorating cakes or cookies, though its primary use is as a standalone candy.

How to keep the rest
After opening, store any remaining licorice twists in an airtight container at room temperature. This will help prevent them from drying out or becoming too hard. Avoid storing in direct sunlight or humid environments, as this can affect the texture and quality of the candy over time.
