LAKRIDS BY BÜLOW - B - Passion Fruit - 4.4 oz - Chocolate Coated Gourmet Licorice - Authentic Scandinavian Candy Produced in Denmark

Lakrids are dreamy. A superior confection. The black licorice is delicious and has a perfect texture chewy with a bit of bite. Coated in a smooth dreamy delicious chocolate. I wish they weren’t so delicious because I wouldn’t want them as often. The price is high of course they’re imported…truly a delicacy from Denmark. The company, founded in 2007 by Johan Bülow, specializes in creating luxury, gourmet licorice and chocolate (check their website ). Many flavors strawberry white chocolate and licorice, lemon, peach, mango, chocolate toffee crunch, dark and light milk, chocolate, and all kinds of combos… and including seasonal flavors.

My first exposure to Lakrids by Bülow liquorice was when I visited Denmark with my Danish mother. We were at the airport and Lakrids had a little stand with samples of their various flavors. I immediately gravitated to the passion fruit because hey, it’s passion fruit and their liquorice was utterly delicious. I bought the large jar and I found it incredibly difficult to eat just 1 or 2 pieces of candy. The flavor of this liquorice is utter worldly.. If there was a numerical rating for candies this candy would receive the highest mark that is possible. Trust me when I say that this liquorice is a work of art. The different flavors of Lakrids that I have tried all have a depth of flavor that you do not find here in the states. I have tried 5 or 6 different flavors and each one has been incredible. You seriously shouldn’t hesitate in buying their candy, it is quite wonderful.

This could quite possibly be the most delicious piece of confection I've ever had in my entire life. Seriously. I don't make statements like that unless I mean it. The Spring collection is also definitely worth checking out since it includes 8 insanely cohesive varieties. (This is my attempt in misdirecting you from ever buying the (D) since they should be shipped to me exclusively). Lemon is unbelievably smooth and creamy and #2 on my list. (Another attempt at misdirection)

The Passionfruit and Peach are really delicious! The Raspberry is good. The Mango Vanilla is surprisingly just OK. It's more vanilla than Mango. I don't even know if I can say I tasted Mango. But it's still okay! But the good ones are the passionfruit and Peach. Delicious! But then again, I love black licorice flavors!

Very tasty! Problem is they get eaten way too fast!

Do look at the weight. I didn't, and was surprised at the small container for the price. It was delicious. A little different-I think- because the scandinavian licorice contains 'salmiak.'

The licorice is hard like a stone. It is impossible to chew it. I bought 2 of these to give as a gift. I was so embarrassed, when my friend told me they could not be eaten.

The licorice has a lovely flavour, not too intense, but it's lacking passionfruit flavour. That needs much more passionfruit flavour to be worthwhile for the price. We won't buy again.
