About AUSTRALIAN BLACK SOFT LICORICE CANDY
Great Value Australian Black Soft Licorice Candy is a chewy black licorice confection sold under Walmart's Great Value private-label brand, distributed by Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. Australian-style licorice is characterized by a soft, chewy texture and a pronounced anise-licorice flavor, distinct from the harder European-style licorice. The primary ingredient by weight is glucose syrup derived from wheat, followed by wheat flour as the second major ingredient, which establishes this as a wheat-containing product unsuitable for gluten-free diets. Molasses and treacle (both dark byproducts of sugar refining) provide the deep, complex sweetness and dark color characteristic of the product. Additional sugar and water are included. Wheat fiber contributes texture. Palm oil adds fat. Caramel color provides a standardized dark brown appearance. Licorice extract delivers the authentic botanical licorice flavor, which comes from glycyrrhizin, a compound extracted from the root of Glycyrrhiza glabra. Natural flavor in the form of aniseed oil augments the licorice character. Salt and mono- and diglycerides round out the formula.
Nutritionally, this candy contains 367 calories per 100 grams, with 3.33 grams of protein, 83.33 grams of carbohydrates, and 3.33 grams of fat per 100 grams. No dietary fiber is recorded despite the wheat fiber ingredient, possibly due to rounding. Serving size is 30 grams. Allergens include wheat. The product does not list dairy, eggs, nuts, or artificial colors. It is not suitable for gluten-free diets. Based on listed ingredients it may be suitable for vegans, as palm oil, caramel color, and licorice extract are typically plant-derived.
