## Description

Product description By The Cup Licorice Pastels Wonderful old-world licorice surrounded by a crunch candy shell. This dainty little treat tastes great by the handful. Licorice Pastel candy colors include light green, light yellow, light purple, red, black, and white. Their elegant, elongated shape and their fun, festive bright colors make them an ideal candidate for wedding party favors, wedding candy buffet features, goodie bags for any occasion, and so much more. Oh, and they are pretty darn good for snacking, too. Candy “Onion” Rings Directions Place a pastel in the end of a twist. Attach the other end of twist to pastel, forming a ring. Repeat with remaining pastels and twists. Place melted coating and cracker crumbs in separate shallow bowls. Dip rings in coating allowing excess to drip off, then roll in crumbs.

Review: Stale old candy - I’d bought this candy from this company before and it was great. This time I received stale, old, and inedible candy. Plus, the bag I got did not look anything like the picture or what I had ordered in the past. I’m very disappointed and will not order again.
Review: The BEST candies - Honestly, these are the best candies I have ever had. I have ordered a really big bag but didn't want that much so I ordered a smaller bag and my son and I split it. Then I ordered another small bag for me and didn't share with anybody and no joke. I ate it in less than 24 hours. And there was a lot in the bag, but they are so yummy. I would take a picture, but I can't because I ate them all.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Stale old candy
*by A***R on September 6, 2022*

I’d bought this candy from this company before and it was great. This time I received stale, old, and inedible candy. Plus, the bag I got did not look anything like the picture or what I had ordered in the past. I’m very disappointed and will not order again.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The BEST candies
*by A***R on March 13, 2025*

Honestly, these are the best candies I have ever had. I have ordered a really big bag but didn't want that much so I ordered a smaller bag and my son and I split it. Then I ordered another small bag for me and didn't share with anybody and no joke. I ate it in less than 24 hours. And there was a lot in the bag, but they are so yummy. I would take a picture, but I can't because I ate them all.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not as good as Jelly Belly
*by R***X on July 4, 2024*

I was at the Jelly Belly factory and they no longer make them which was disappointing. I bought these to see if they would be ok...and "ok" is all they are. They aren't smooth, kinda bitter (considering it's licorice) but they'll do in a pinch. I doubt I'll repurchase them, tho.
