Lakris & Bringbær

My lovely daughter sent me two tubs of these as part of my Christmas gift. They are Danish chocolates - the ones in the photo are white chocolate with a liquid liquorice interior, dusted with raspberry. The others were milk chocolate and liquid liquorice. She and I discovered them during her first year in Norway. I absolutely love them and confess to having eating both tubs on my own. I hid them from John! Way too good to share. ;-)

I know you can buy them in the UK, or online, but I'd never do that. Far too more-ish to buy for oneself!

I've just cancelled our hotel for our walking trip this week. We're both gutted, but should be grateful that although John's obviously injured, it could have been a lot worse. Wish I had some Lakris and Bringbær chocolates to soften the blow. Wait, I ate them all!

Beautiful capture and lovely light on your fabulous chocolates. Although not really a chocolate eater, there are some that I do enjoy and the white ones sound delicious.

So sorry that you had to change your plans and cancel the trip, it won't run away though. I just hope that John is on the mend and pain free. Wishing him all the best for a speedy recovery xx

[Dianne]

Those choccies sound delicious. Hopefully you will be able to do the walking trip sometime in the near future.

[Babs]

Poor John is injured and you didn't share the chocolates with him. I am sure you will get chance to do the walking trip another time.

[Joan Robillard]

Wonderful storytelling.

[Brian]

🙏for John's recovery. Lovely image

[Sarah Bremner]

Lovely photo, hope John is feeling a little better each day, and I did laugh at your eating all the chocolates yourself 😄 I got a lovely box at Christmas from a good friend and I am doing the same!!!
Take care xx

[John Falconer]

As Diana said the trip can be organised again as it hasn’t gone away. I’m with on the chocolates. Eat them all!!!

[Corinne C]

I won't share my chocolate either!
A great black and white with a lovely composition.
Wishing a fast recovery to your husband.

[Merrelyn]

They sound delicious. I must admit that I'm guilty of the same thing when it comes to good chocolate. Best wishes to John for a speedy recovery.

[Casablanca]

Oh my, they sound like heaven. Liquid liquorice? WOW

[Renee Salamon]

guilty pleasures are the best - beautiful shot in b&w

[Beverley]

Oooo I think you deserved this wonderful treat. Liquid liquorice wow… I now have a craving to taste one…

[haskar]

Chocolate with licorice is something I discovered in Sweden. Apparently most people don't like it, but I love it. Wonderful narrative. I'm so sorry to hear about John's injury, but I believe he will recover quickly.

[Carole Sandford]

Not keen on liquorice but combined with chocolate it may taste better. I’d give it a try.

[Phil Howcroft]

great black and white shot Issi , liquid liquorice sounds rather lovely

[Delwyn Barnett]

Yum. That flavour would be right up my alley!

[John]

Wishing John a speedy recovery!

[Kathy]

Sounds so decadent. Not sure that it would be available here in the US. Probably a good thing. Sorry about your walking trip but your husband does need to recuperate before you both start walking like that again.

[LManning (Laura)]

Beautiful shot. Sorry you’ve had to cancel your trip, but it’s good that John is taking the time to heal.

[Rick]

Great shot of the delicious candy. So sorry about having to cancel your trip.

[Taffy]

I love this still life, with the shapes of circles and rectangles

[Kathy A]

Those chocolates sound sensational.

Sorry about your trip and John being injured, I hope he bounces back quickly

[eDorre]

Love chocolate and your composition. Good thoughts to John and you too as you are out of chocolate

[Valerie Chesney]

Don't know these chocolates but, they sound delicious!
Thinking of John!!

[Boxplayer]

Ooh not keen on the Nordic licorices, shame about the cancelled weekend
