Saturday's Under the Sun

I got a sweet treat from Natural Vines Brand Licorice - A Healthier Indulgence the other day, and I can say the kids really loved this candy. Here's some information for parents looking for something special.

The American Licorice Company Debuts All Natural Premium Confection!

From Bend Oregon on July 8, 2010 -

For consumers who are more health conscious and looking for products that don't contain artificial ingredients, the American Licorice Company, one of the nation's oldest confectionery manufactures, has debuted the Natural Vines brand, its new line of premium gourmet licorice. Made with only natural flavors and colors from natural sources, and sweetened with molasses and pure cand sugar, natural Vines contain no trans or saturated fats, no high fructose corn syrup or preservatives, zero cholesterol, and are very low in sodium.

More than ever, consumers are reading package labels and scrutinizing the ingredients in the food they're buying for their families, said Michael Kelly, Manager of Consumer communications at American Licorice Company. "We make Natural Vines with pure, simple, and wholesome ingredients to provide a healthier alternative for consumers looking for something sweet."

The two flavors, Black and Strawberry, contain natural licorice extract and are made from a unique cooking process that delivers a soft, chewy texture and a deep, rich flavor. The bite-sized twists have less than 17 calories each, and come in a convenient resealable bag that keeps in freshness and flavor and allows for easy portion control. These wonderful treats are available online at www.candycabinet.com
