It's a lot of fun to watch people choosing candy from our display. Sometimes they smile and sometimes they laugh. Sometimes they buy a sentimental favourite and sometimes they just like to be adventurous and try something new.
If the person likes black liquorice we often suggest an Aniseed Balls. These are a staple in British sweet shops. These small, hard, brown, shiny balls are like a jawbreaker or what some call gobstoppers.
Aniseed is native to the eastern Mediterranean. It has a very distinctive liquorice flavour and has been used for medicinal purposes for centuries and has been used as a digestive aid.
If you like Ouzo, you will love Aniseed Balls. So try if you want to be a bit adventurous...give them a try.
Hope we see your smile in our shop.
