Spicchi

I found these anise candies when I went looking for the square red anise candies in the red cellophane wrapping I remembered from when I was a little kid, many years ago. While looking I realized that even if I found ones that looked like those red ones they most likely wouldn't live up to the expectation created by nostalgia. I believe these colorless and transparent hard anise candies are less sweet than the ones I'm remembering, more like chewing a fresh picked anise leaf or crunching some dry anise seeds, and that's all to the good. I ordered a 7 ounce bag first and needn't have bothered. I knew from the first delicious candy that I'd be ordering the big bag. Not only do these taste like a sip of anisette, their elongated oval shape has a really nice "mouth feel". Very good quality candies and a good value when purchased in the 1 kg/2.2 lb bag.

Taste amazing and a great front door candy

There are 195 candies in my 2.2# (1 kg) bag, shape is of a 3/8 inch arched cut of fruit, with segment indentations. The flavors are slightly tart and appealing. There are no seam-lines to scratch your mouth like hard candy often has. The flavors are printed in Italian on the wrappers (orange arancini, yellow limone), ingredients are on the bag. The wrappers are opaque. These candies are more high end than they appear. I like that they use natural dyes. I had hoped to give them out on Halloween (along with some other treats). But will keep these to share with friends. And a nice addition to the office candy dish.

Delicious

Fantastic anise-flavored hard candy

Addictive. So tasty. Rich flavor.

Delicious lemon and orange candies . The only problem is there is wheat in them .
