What Makes It Uncommon

You may think you've had licorice but you've probably never had lakrids (that’s Danish for—you guessed it—licorice). Fellow B Corp LAKRIDS BY BÜLOW adds a Nordic twist to this classic confection and takes it to a sublime new level.

Crafted from real licorice root and molasses (never artificial flavors or corn syrup), each piece is slow-cooked, then layered with Belgian chocolate—up to 30 times—before being finished with delicate powders, shimmering glazes, or perfectly crisp shells. The result is a chewy, crunchy, chocolatey bite that’s full of surprise and depth, from fruity to salty to boldly bittersweet. This gift-ready tasting box includes LAKRIDS BY BÜLOW's most popular flavor combinations to savor, share, and change the way you think about licorice forever.

  • Includes 56 chocolate-coated licorice bites (7 pieces each of 8 flavors):
    • The Original
    • Sour Strawberry
    • Passion Fruit
    • Salt & Caramel
    • Salty Licorice (Salmiak)
    • Dark Chocolate Sea Salt
    • Strawberries & Cream
    • Crispy Caramel
  • Chocolate layers made with fine Belgian chocolate and natural flavorings.
  • Packed in a sleek, gift-ready box.
  • See nutritional information here.
  • Made in Denmark.

LAKRIDS BY BÜLOW

LAKRIDS BY BÜLOW

LAKRIDS BY BÜLOW began in 2007 with one bold goal: to create a completely new category of "gourmet licorice." Founder Johan Bülow set up shop on the Danish island of Bornholm and started cooking up small batches that challenged conventions about the time-honored confection. Today, the Copenhagen-based brand is still raising the bar, using natural ingredients, like licorice root, organic chilis, wild berries, and cocoa beans, to craft each chewy bite by hand. In 2024, they became the first premium confectionery company in the Nordic countries to achieve B Corp certification?a reflection of their deep commitment to sustainable production. Their factory runs 100% on energy from Danish windmills, and they were the first in the industry to launch fully recyclable R-PET packaging. As they put it, "Nature is our most important supplier," and they're proud to keep people, planet, and purpose at the heart of every sweet creation.

Absolutely amazing and delicious!!

I bought this for my boyfriend, who LOVES licorice 😊! He is definitely pacing himself, because there is still some left, but WOW!!! Every flavor he tries he totally loves🤩! (And me too!!!!) No doubt, I would buy this over and over again … it's delicious ❤️!!


excellent gift

Got this for my licorice-loving mom, and she really enjoyed it. Great variety, unique & interesting flavors, and enough of each to share! It was a better value than the Advent collections I'd seen, so this was definitely a great find. (Might be the next gift for hubby, or maybe I'll just treat myself!) #sweepstakes


Great Gourmet Licorice Lover Gift!

My Mom is hard to buy gifts for as she doesn't need much, but as she likes licorice, this variety box intrigued me! I bought it for subdividing into gift bags for family & friends with discriminating tastes. It was a hit for all, including (of course) me! I had to try it to give it of course! Surprising gourmet flavor combinations, nice presentation, worth the price! Only suggestion: I would have liked sub-division sharing bags & color identification guides. Truly a unique, "uncommon" item & terrific find! Pair it with a licorice beverage & stretch out the sampling experience with a different chocolate-licorice treat each setting.


"Best confection I ever had!"

My mom loves licorice and I just recently discovered Scandinavian chocolate coated licorice when traveling abroad. When I saw this gift I knew I had to get it for my mom! She said it was the "best confection I ever had." Shes in her 60's!


Order them. Do it.

This one was a surprising hit! Because the licorice bites are small and there are so many flavors the whole family had fun taste testing. Even our most zealous licorice skeptics found flavors they loved. Whatever you think they'll taste like - it's better.


Phenomenal and beautifully packaged

This chocolate-covered licorice sampler was just as good as one my spouse brought back from Finland a couple years ago, but much easier to get! I loved all the varieties, even the ones I didn't expect to enjoy. The packaging is really beautiful and adds to the experience - and the value. #sweepstakes


Delicious!

Very tasty and unique. A bit pricy, but good.


Definitely a keeper

Excellent product, taste great, beautiful gift box


Unbelievably Delicious and Over the Top!

This confection blew me away. From the beautiful presentation with the little licorice serving tongs to the incredible flavors. WOW! The Danes have got licorice down and I can no longer eat any other kind as it isn't authentic licorice like this. I now buy directly from Mr. Bulow's company!


What a pleasant surprise!

I bought this for my husband. He is a big licorice fan, but I was unsure of how well this would go over. He loved it so much he bought himself some more! It was incredible! He really enjoyed all the different flavors. If you know a licorice fan, or are one yourself, I would highly recommend this product. Delicious and beautifully packaged!
