Dee Best Strawberry Flavored Red String Licorice Candy | Mouthwatering Soft, Chewy Extra Long Shoestring Licorice Vine Laces Old Fashioned Candy | Great For Decorating Too | 32 Ounces

Shoestring licorice is my favorite candy! When I was a kid, I would go to the mall and there was a cheese company (can't think of their name) that had the licorice. I would buy bags of it. I tie it up in knots and then eat it. Whenever I see a candy store at a mall or some tourist area, I walk in just to hunt shoestring licorice. Every once in awhile I would find some but more often than not, they don't have it. When I have found some in the past, many would be so hard and old but I would still eat it. I found a candy store had some the other day, an itsy bitsy bag of it with maybe 8 strings was pretty expensive. Besides that, it was horrible, it was sour and had a horrendous after taste. I could only eat 2 strings. But it got me on the search for some and I ordered from here. I was hesitant due to some of the comments about it being hard etc. Well, I got my order today and I can tell you as an absolute connoisseur of red licorice, it is Fantastic! It is strawberry, it is fresh and it ties up in the knots just as I like it. I will possibly have to get it on a subscription basis too. I am not disappointed and so happy I found how I can get my favorite candy once more. Update - I have ordered more just 4 days after receiving this one. It is so good!

The media could not be loaded. I’ve bought this candy three times now, so clearly, I have a problem—but it’s the kind of problem I’m happy to have. For $20.99, you get a massive 32 oz bag of soft, chewy, perfectly sweet strawberry licorice strings that taste like childhood and happiness. No weird plasticky aftertaste, no stale, rubbery nonsense like the cheap stuff at the gas station.This candy is consistently fresh. Never dry, never old, no broken bits like they’ve been sitting in a warehouse since 1998. Every bite is soft, sweet, and ridiculously addicting. It’s honestly my favorite candy—straight-up nostalgia wrapped in delicious red shoestrings.Also, they’re long enough to braid, decorate cakes, or pretend you’re flossing your teeth with sugar (not recommended but hilarious).The price isn’t terrible for how much you get, especially since other brands will charge you $8 for a sad little bag that’s half air.Final Verdict: If you love strawberry licorice, this one’s a total win. Seriously, treat yourself—you won’t regret it.

Has a little more non-stick coating on it than I’m used to, however, the flavor and chewiness are great.

Delicious!! Just as I remember from my childhood! The plastic container was a challenge to open

Don’t be deceived by the stock photo. This are not the shiny red licorice laces from way back when. These are super tart. They also had a very funky taste and extremely waxy. Tossing them.

Flavor isn't the same as back in the day. It's more on the sour side than the sweet. The Flavor isn't bad it just not the same. However, the old ingredients made the flavor taste better. In my personal opinion if the old flavor is obtained it's an opportunity to get the orginal customs and new customers. Also, the packaging is good and "fresh" and the laces aren't stuck together. Its worth the purchase. I hope this is helpful.

Delicious. Took me back to m childhood; Ref Shoe Laces were two for a penny.

Great product, speedy delivery on a hard to find product…..
