About Salty liquorice squares

Salty Liquorice Squares are a bold handcrafted treat inspired by Nordic cuisine, particularly popular across Finland, Sweden, and Denmark. Combining molasses, salmiak (ammonium chloride), and natural liquorice root extract, these intensely flavored squares deliver a unique blend of sweetness and savory saltiness. Known for their acquired taste, they represent a staple in Scandinavian confectionery culture. On the nutrition side, liquorice root contains glycyrrhizin, which may offer anti-inflammatory properties, though excessive consumption can lead to elevated blood pressure and other health concerns. Salmiak adds the characteristic salty tang but also requires moderation due to its stimulating effects on the kidneys. While rich in flavor, Salty Liquorice Squares are typically low-fat, though they may contain added sugars depending on the recipe. Enjoying these distinctive squares in small portions ensures a balanced approach to savoring their bold taste.
