Darrell Lea: Soft Licorice Born from a Happy Accident
Some of the best candy stories start with a mistake. Darrell Lea's famous soft-eating black licorice came from a licorice batch that went wrong, and the brand gave it away in brown paper bags until it was clear people really enjoyed it. The business traces back to toffees and hard candies made at a fruit and vegetable shop on the Corso in Manly, Sydney, and today Darrell Lea is the largest black licorice brand in America.
Here you can discover the classic Original Black Licorice, Liquorice Allsorts and Mixed Flavors in 7oz peg bags, plus soft licorice in raspberry, mango, pink lemonade and cinnamon, and Strawberry Licorice Twists. Prefer a pucker? Try Sour Candy Stix in green apple, raspberry and mixed flavor. For a crowd, the Red and Black Licorice Real Australian Candy comes in 15.4lb cases, and you'll find more twists in our licorice candy collection.
When the holidays roll around, the Christmas Strawberry Apple Australian Licorice Bags make a cheerful stocking stuffer or a sweet gift for the licorice fan on your list.
