The
Black
Gold

There is liquorice. There is chocolate. And then there is Det Sorte Guld.

A soft, handmade liquorice caramel coated with creamy Belgian milk chocolate and finally dusted with raw liquorice powder.

First, you meet the soft chocolate. Then comes the rich liquorice caramel – and the raw liquorice powder on the outside ensures that the liquorice is there from the very first bite.

The result is a little mouthful of sweetness, creamy chocolate and plenty of liquorice character..

Why do we call it Det Sorte Guld?

Because to us, liquorice isn't just a sweet treat.

The deep, dark flavour of raw liquorice is the foundation of Det Sorte Guld – both inside the soft liquorice caramel and in the fine layer of raw liquorice powder on the outside.

Together with the Belgian milk chocolate, the liquorice gets a sweet and creamy contrast.

This creates a liquorice experience where sweetness and intensity meet – and where the raw liquorice is allowed to take centre stage.

And besides, liquorice has always been called “Det Sorte Guld” – “The Black Gold”.

Soft liquorice caramel in the centre

Inside, you'll find the soft liquorice caramel.

Here, the sweet caramel gets depth and character from the raw liquorice, making the flavour more intense than a classic cream caramel.

The texture is soft, while the liquorice flavour gives the caramel its very own character.

It is the heart of Det Sorte Guld.

Coated with Belgian milk chocolate

Around the liquorice caramel is a layer of Belgian milk chocolate. Belgian milk chocolate.

The milk chocolate adds creaminess and sweetness, creating a contrast to the darker and more intense liquorice flavour.

When the chocolate and liquorice caramel melt together in your mouth, you get both the sweet, creamy chocolate and the deep flavour of liquorice.

Dusted with raw liquorice powder

And then comes the final detail.

Det Sorte Guld is dusted with liquorice powder,so the liquorice isn't only hidden underneath the chocolate.

The raw liquorice powder gives the product its characteristic dark appearance while ensuring that you experience the liquorice flavour from the very first moment.

First, liquorice.

Then creamy chocolate.

And in the centre, the soft liquorice caramel.

Three layers of flavour

What we think makes Det Sorte Guld special is that the experience comes in several layers.

The raw liquorice powder provides the first liquorice character.

The Belgian milk chocolate adds sweetness and creaminess.

And the soft liquorice caramel in the centre brings everything together with its rich flavour.

Three different experiences – in one little bite.

For those who truly love liquorice

Det Sorte Guld isn't just chocolate with a hint of liquorice.

Liquorice is an important part of the entire product – from the raw liquorice powder on the outside to the soft liquorice caramel in the centre.

That's why it's especially for those who love the characteristic flavour of liquorice but also enjoy the sweetness and creaminess of good milk chocolate.

Perhaps that's exactly why we call it Det Sorte Guld.

Storage

To preserve the delicious flavour and texture, we recommend storing Det Sorte Guld in a dry place and avoiding excessive heat.

That way, both the chocolate and the soft liquorice caramel stay at their best.
