Initial Reaction: I was surprised that the pieces of licorice were so small, but the smell was lovely.

Pros: Chocolate and Licorice – perfect.        
      
Cons: Not as low in fat as the plain liquorice.     
                                 
Value for money? OK    

Overall Reaction:  Lovely little pieces of soft squidgy licorice covered in melt in the mouth milk chocolate. Very nice but a little bit too sweet for me.  I prefer the natural and flavoured liquorice to this.

My nephew’s, however didn’t find it too sweet and had no problem finishing the bag.

  1. You just reminded me of one of my pregnancy cravings. I could easily get through a bag of liquorice a day! The Darrell Lea one was really good.
