Although using liquorice has been prevalent for hundreds of years, it was the late 18th century when the confectionery would become recognised for its versatility, thanks to the introduction of liquorice allsorts.
As the name suggests, liquorice allsorts offer a selection of sweets, all manufactured from liquorice, except for the jelly buttons which contain an aniseed taste. The inspiration behind liquorice allsorts has been attributed to Charlie Thompson, a sales representative working for Bassett’s in 1899.
Having tripped over a tray of samples being shown to a client, the sweets became jumbled. Fascinated by the end results, the client secured an order, and before long, liquorice allsorts were a hit.
Although there have been some adjustments made over the years, the liquorice allsorts we enjoy today all started from a mistake, which is not bad for one the bestselling sweets in the world.
The popularity of liquorice allsorts is still apparent today, and those wanting to ensure that they are purchasing genuine liquorice allsorts which can be delivered promptly, regardless of the restrictions in place.
Liquorice allsorts are just one of the many selections available at SoSweet, regardless of whether you are searching for nostalgic classics or modern-day sweets.
