Shiny, jet-black and unmistakably old-school, The Confectionery House Black Aniseed Balls are one of those lollies that never really disappear. They’ve been a fixture in traditional lolly jars for generations, instantly recognisable by their deep colour and distinctive aroma. This is a sweet that doesn’t rely on novelty, instead leaning on familiarity and strong flavour.
Each piece is a hard boiled aniseed-flavoured ball, finished with a smooth, glossy black coating. The flavour develops gradually as the sweet dissolves, delivering that bold aniseed taste fans expect rather than a quick hit. Their solid structure makes them long-lasting, which is part of their appeal for those who enjoy savoury-style sweets.
Packed in a 1kg bulk bag, this format is well suited to lolly shops, pick-and-mix walls, corner stores, and home lolly jars. The loose bag makes it easy to decant into jars, scoops, or smaller retail bags without extra packaging. It’s a practical option for steady sellers rather than impulse novelty items.
Black Aniseed Balls are often chosen alongside other traditional boiled sweets such as humbugs, aniseed rings, or barley sugars. Their deep colour provides strong contrast in mixed displays, helping them stand out visually. They also appeal to customers who actively seek classic flavours rather than fruit or sour varieties.
Produced under The Confectionery House label, these aniseed balls focus on consistency and traditional presentation. They sit comfortably within any retro or old-fashioned sweet range without overlapping too closely with fruit-based boiled lollies. For retailers, they’re a dependable choice with long-standing demand.
