From a family-owned company in Perham, Minn. comes the world’s tastiest soft-and-chewy licorice, known throughout the country for its bursting flavor and chewy, twisted texture that’s like no other candy.

Quality is at the heart of every Wiley Wallaby product, and its makers – three generations of family ownership – ensure that every flavor is vegan, fat-free, and made from wholesome ingredients. It took Wiley Wallaby more than a year and a half and 100,000 pounds of “test” licorice to create the perfect formula for soft-and-chewy licorice. You’ll be able to taste that perfection in every bite.

Wiley Wallaby Licorice is available for purchase at wileywallaby.com, Amazon, Target, Walmart, Hy-Vee, 7-11, Circle K, Family Dollar, Dollar Tree, Whole Foods Market, HEB, Giant, Cub Foods, Coborns, Schnucks, and Meijer.
