Sweet Black Licorice Carpets invite you to experience a bold, chewy indulgence that sits squarely in the lane of classic licorice with a modern twist. These soft, dark morsels deliver a rich black licorice flavor with a distinctive salty depth, courtesy of ammonium chloride, for a pleasantly punchy finish that true licorice fans crave.

What makes Sweet Black Licorice Carpets unique

• Authentic salty-sweet profile: ammonium chloride provides that signature Salmiakki-inspired bite that elevates ordinary licorice into a memorable tasting moment.
• Luxuriously chewy texture: a careful blend of glucose syrup, sorbitol, and guar gum creates a supple, long-lasting chew that doesn’t harden with time.
• Deep, glossy black appearance: caramel color delivers a rich, alluring hue that signals a rich licorice experience inside.
• Ingredients you can trust: gluten-containing recipe, beeswax as a natural glaze, and no gelatin, with natural colorants and no high fructose corn syrup, GMOs, or trans fats.
• Traditional flavor, modern clarity: a straightforward licorice flavor profile accented with a touch of sweetness and salt for balance that lingers on the palate.

Flavor, texture, and how it feels

Each piece of Sweet Black Licorice Carpets offers a soft-to-chewy bite that slowly releases anise-forward notes, underscored by a subtle sweetness and a savory hint from the licorice salt. The result is a candy that stays pleasantly pliant, never grainy or tough, making it ideal for slow-savor enjoyment over tea, coffee, or after a hearty meal.
