Sweet 50%

A - The Original was the very first product developed when Johan Bülow was inspired to coat licorice with chocolate, something that had never been seen before in Denmark. At first, people were skeptical about the idea, but A - The Original quickly became a beloved favorite. The combination of sweet licorice, premium milk chocolate and fine licorice powder is, according to many, instantly addictive. "A" is part of our permanent collection, which includes our core flavors A–F.

Why Swedish Candy?

Who is Lilla?

Lilla is created by Nic Jansson and Holly Berrigan, the team behind MYSA Natural Wine. Nic is half-Swedish and grew up spending summers in Dalarna, Sweden, where lördagsgodis (Saturday candy) was a weekly ritual. Lilla brings that tradition stateside—with better ingredients!

    This is the perfect combination of sweet and sour at the same time. Fresh and colorful with it hard for me to choose which one to eat next. It does not stick to your teeth either, which I love.
