It dates back to Cleopatra and Roman soldiers – eventually to the Pontefract monks. Liquorice sweets are nothing new but whether traditional or more contemporary, they continue to be a key part of the sugar confectionery market today. We have an ever-growing range of sweets made from liquorice to show you – some might surprise you!
Considered to possess medicinal properties from a very early age, liquorice has traditionally been a black, fairly hard sweet. Pontefract Cakes are of course the perfect example. As time went on, the likes of Liquorice Allsorts and Liquorice Comfits appeared, offering a more creative take on a much-loved flavour.
All liquorice sweets remained fairly hard until recent times, when the development of soft liquorice came about. This break-through has opened up what was a traditional sector of the sweets market to a younger audience, as fruit flavours have been used to create soft liquorice sweets that…well…don’t seem like liquorice at all!
You’ll find all manner of choice on our website, all packaged into great value, bulk sweets bags which are ideal for retailers and other businesses looking to buy sweets in bulk. Many brands have embraced the flavour of liquorice and so our range spans many familiar names in addition to more recent additions.
So, if you’ve overlooked liquorice sweets until now, and thought that they were just a traditional idea, look again at this fast-growing sector of the UK confectionery market and get your customers talking. We can help you with plenty of advice and guidance, should you need it – we’re only at the end of a phone or email.
Despatched from our own fully-stocked warehouse, our bulk sweets are delivered swiftly to your door via courier. We understand the importance of speed and reliability and hope that you might choose us as your regular supplier of wholesale sweets.
