Review: "Kinda" brings back memories... - Not too bad. I can't trust my memory to go back to childhood, and really remember how much I liked this stuff (I must have, I ordered this). It's a waxy/sticky bundle of joy (depending on the weather on delivery day). Taste is of course subjective, I liked it for what it is (not a gourmet adventure). This brand is a bit "better" (to me) compared to others I have tried (in my pursuit of childhood). Taste and texture were within my expectations. If you're lucky and heat is not a big factor where you are, this should give a pleasent enough feeling. Would order again. Review: Closest to old time strawberry shoelaces - Been searching for this for a long time. It’s the closest tasting to old strawberry shoelaces licorice from the 60-70s bought for me by my grandfather. This has a nice tart strawberry flavor. Everything else tastes like plastic or twizzlers. Will buy again but plenty in this 2lb bag Update: we’ve bought this multiple times and it has had a different taste and diameter per lace each time Some times too sweet. It’s a bit disappointing that the taste and size is always consistent and the recipe is always the same. What we preferred is when it was a bit more tart but it seems like we can’t get the same product each time ## Features - Bursting Flavor: Indulge in the mouthwatering taste of real strawberry with every bite! These licorice laces are packed with a rich and delicious strawberry flavor that’s sure to satisfy your sweet tooth. - Soft & Chewy: Enjoy the balance of softness and chewiness in every string.

Or is it a new recipe?** A: NO! It's not. It has the weirdest almost alcohol backtaste to it. You want good strawberry licorice rope? Gustafs. Seriously their (Gustafs) strawberry is much closer to the stuff I ate by the pound as a kid in the 70's & 80's. It's a few more bucks but definitely worth it. **Q: what is the length of each string?** A: I just received my bag. I actually measured it. I took out 2 separate strings. Mine are 2-1/2 feet long. **Q: Where are these made????** A: I don't know, but they're the best tasting string laces I've tasted in quite some times. I've been on a search for those string laces that used to be available in bundles at the candy stores in the malls. They seem to have disappeared, replaced by oily, slick strings. The strings I remember were dry and full of flavor. These are not exactly that, but they're closer than any of the other brands I've tried. **Q: Is it the recipe from back in the 60’s or is it the new texture and taste!l? can i get a sample of the string red licorice? before i buy 2 or 3 lbs ?** A: In my opinion, it tastes the same as the old time 1960s candy. Very tasty. We love it. Bought many bags and always fresh too. I’m just a customer. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Kinda" brings back memories... *by E***S on October 24, 2021* Not too bad.

It’s the closest tasting to old strawberry shoelaces licorice from the 60-70s bought for me by my grandfather. This has a nice tart strawberry flavor. Everything else tastes like plastic or twizzlers. Will buy again but plenty in this 2lb bag Update: we’ve bought this multiple times and it has had a different taste and diameter per lace each time Some times too sweet.

Most disappointing ever. *by K***N on January 14, 2023* I usually buy Gustafs strawberry rope licorice , but this was cheaper.. now I know why. I was so hopeful after reading reviews of this strawberry licorice! Oh! The disappointment! An "almost edible" disaster. Apparently they do not have ANY sort of quality control and clearly do not give one tiny poo about their reviews because the few negative reviwere right. But alas. I must expound on my dismay of this product and poo is a great place to start. It tastes like a combination of artificial strawberry (not that there is anything wrong with that) artificial strawberry mixed with 90% alcohol hand sanitizer. Most of it does. There where a few, very few, pieces I was able to pry off of the 2lb glob of stiff-stuck-together "licorice", had initially given me hope... only to be dashed against the rocks.. I mean, dashed against the hard 2lb glob of stiff, stuck together mess that they have the audacity to call licorice ! Of course, it could have been the burning numbness of the hand sanitizer flavor that further confused my tastebuds. THIS CRAP does not taste anything like the stuff that we ate in the seventies and eighties! And that makes me sad. It was hard, bunched together in a stiff glob and trying to pull a "rope" off was a misguided effort. It broke off in pieces and parts..and is just yuck. I took a chance with this brand as there are not many options, and it was a complete waste of money. I'm actually kind of afraid to throw it away as it may possibly contaminate the garbage. Or grow. Grow into a horror worse than the beast on 'stranger things'. I may however keep it around to light the logs in my fireplace. If it has an alcohol content anything like it tastes (not in a good way) it will burn like the fire in the pants of all the reviewers on here that say it is tasty. I will be buying GUSTAFS from here on out, even if it costs more, it is worth it. THIS STUFF SUCKS. DO NOT RECOMMEND. ## Frequently Bought Together - Kervan Candy Bebeto Strawberry Licorice Laces - Red Shoestring Licorice Laces for Braiding, Decorating Baked Goods & Making Knots - Soft & Chewy Candy (2 lbs) - Bebeto Rainbow Licorice Laces - String Licorice Laces Candy for Decorating Baked Goods, Making Knots, Fun Snacks - 2lbs Bulk Size Candy by Kervan - Strawberry Red Laces * 2 Lb Bag, Quality Licorice Laces --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/55512427-kervan-candy-bebeto-strawberry-licorice-laces-red-shoestring-licorice-laces](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/55512427-kervan-candy-bebeto-strawberry-licorice-laces-red-shoestring-licorice-laces) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-08*
