Gustaf's AllSorts Gourmet English Licorice Candy, 6.3 Ounce Peg Bag

One of my favorite candies and I enjoyed it very much. It was fresh. Thank you so much.

I've loved licorice candy ever since I was a child. Any flavor. Any form. But AllSorts were, and still are, one of my favorites because so many different kinds of licorice come in one single package. Earlier this year, I ordered a bag of Wiley Wallaby's Australian AllSorts (all of their licorice is incredibly fresh and totally delicious), but the word "All" in AllSorts was a bit of a stretch as several of the kinds typically included in an AllSorts assortment were missing. So this time around, I decided to order from another company, and based on reviews, Gustaf's was my pick. Ack, what a disappointment! Not only was the bag tiny, but when I opened it, it was half empty (yes, I know the packages are done by weight). At first glance, the candy inside looked old, and when I tasted it, it was stale, very hard and practically crumbled apart. I have no idea how long it sat in a hot warehouse, but it was really not edible and a total waste of money. I rechecked the reviews and did find more than a few 1-star ratings from customers who had the same unpleasant experience as me; I only wish I'd seen them sooner. I'll definitely be ordering again from Wiley Wallaby's.

This product is exactly what my husband was looking for.

I have purchased this candy before and enjoyed it. This time the pieces were less fresh and harder to chew. The assortment was not balanced either. I like this size because it li.its my portions.

good licorice

These were NOT the same black licorice as back in the 60's! The bag and the candy look the same but inside the package it was a hot mess. My favorite USED TO BE the little dot of black licorice with the sprinkle coating all over it. There was ONE pink one in the bag. no blue at all, and the other pieces were all falling apart in the back. There were horrible for the price. So much for nostalgia candy- next time I will stick to good & plenty for my black licorice fix. ugh threw it all out!!It tasted old and stale to boot. I highly NOT RECOMMEND THIS ONE!!

I enjoyed licorice allsorts from the time that I was a child. Being much older now, I would never order these again. Tasted old out of the bag. I’m thinking that packagers were required to keep a bag in each back pocket, sit often, so that when they were shipped, the layered candies were squished, separated and not at all visually appealing. The variety of candies were not uniform. Only two gell filled pieces with little candied beads on the outside - shame!

For a cost ,6.99, I thought the amount of candy would have been larger. I have purchased this product locally and have gotten more product for less money. I had hoped that shopping with Amazon I would making the purchase on line would be more convienent. But the higher cost for less product just isn’t worth it too me
