Licorice Cakes

I like Ponterfract Cakes because they are moderately soft and have a rich licorice flavor. They are not salty, but also not too sweet. My translation for Ponterfract is "perfect" licorice cakes.

They’re GREAT

Just like I remember, soft, nice chew, and the taste of my childhood

Not enough and too much ....The Pontefract cakes were not that sweet but clearly had a lot of licorice extract so, if you like the bittersweet flavor of pure Italian licorice extract, you will love this product (because the 'cakes' actually do taste like a soft version of 'Spezzatina' or 'Rombetti')! Otherwise, this product is probably not for you ....
