Raw Liquorice Powder

Raw liquorice powder – Intense flavor from pure liquorice root

If you love the distinctive taste of real liquorice, our raw liquorice powder is an obvious choice. Made from 100% pure liquorice root without additives, the powder provides an intense, natural liquorice flavor that elevates baked goods, desserts, and hot or cold drinks.

The fine consistency makes the powder easy to dose and mix into your recipes. You decide whether you want a subtle hint of liquorice or a stronger flavor experience.

What is raw liquorice powder?

Raw liquorice powder consists of liquorice roots that have been evaporated to a strong liquorice syrup, which is then spray-dried – and thus becomes Raw Liquorice powder. If the strong liquorice syrup is further dried, it is English liquorice. So raw liquorice powder is actually English liquorice in powdered form.

Perfect for baking and desserts

Raw liquorice powder is a versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of recipes.

Try it in, among other things:

• Brownies and chocolate cake
• Cookies
• Cheesecake
• Muffins
• Cream buns
• Homemade ice cream
• Panna cotta
• Mousse
• Confectionery

Liquorice pairs particularly well with chocolate, vanilla, lemon, raspberries and strawberries, where it adds depth and balance to the flavor.

For hot and cold drinks

Raw liquorice powder can also be used in drinks.

Try it in:

• Hot cocoa
• Coffee
• Chai Latte
• Milkshakes
• Smoothies
• Cocktails
• Gin & tonic

A small amount is often enough to provide an exciting and different taste experience.

Dosage

Raw liquorice powder has a concentrated flavor, so start with a small amount.

As a rule of thumb:

• ½ teaspoon for a light licorice flavor.
• 1–2 teaspoons for a more pronounced flavor in a regular cake or dessert.

You can always adjust to your own taste.

Storage

To preserve the good aroma, we recommend that raw liquorice powder is stored in a dry, cool place and protected from direct sunlight. Make sure to close the packaging tightly after use.
