Licorice
Candy
Licorice candy made in the
United States contains small amounts of licorice, but the main
flavor ingredient of licorice candy is anise.
Licorice imported from Australia, Finland, England
or Holland is
made with real licorice root.
The sweet taste of its yellow root prompted
its use in
the manufacture of candies. It contains vitamin E,
B-complex, biotin, niacin, pantothenic acid, lecithin,
manganese
and other trace elements.
For thousands of years, licorice root has
been sought after for
it's reputed medicinal qualities.
Ordering candy
or chocolate items during the warm summer months will require an
expedited UPS shipping service. To prevent your candy or
chocolate from melting in a hot UPS truck, it is recommended that
you use Next Day Air. Next Day Air service can be chosen from our
shopping cart. If the weather is near but not above 80 degrees,
you may choose 2nd Day Air.
Please consult the
UPS time in
transit map
to determine how long Ground service will
take. If you are in a next day delivery area, you may choose Ground service.
We will add ice bricks to your package at no charge. The ice bricks will add
up to four pounds to the overall weight of your package, which will result in
a slight increase in your shipping cost.
We will do our best to
assure that your package will arrive in top condition with the shorter transit
times, but
Half Nuts cannot accept responsibility for melting that may occur to
perishable products during transit.
Ordering items that could
melt may delay your shipping. We will ship your chocolate to arrive by
Friday, and when that is not possible we will ship the following Monday. That
prevents your perishables from sitting in a hot truck or warehouse over a
weekend.
