About Liquorice Pontefract Cakes

Liquorice Pontefract Cakes — firm, dark and unmistakably aniseed. A steady seller on the counter and online alike.

This is the 200g bag, which works out at around 35 pieces. That is £1.03 per 100g, which we show on every size so you can compare properly rather than guessing. You can also buy it in 200g, 400g, 1kg, 1.5kg, 2kg, 2.5kg, and 3kg - the bigger bags bring the price per 100g down, so they are worth a look if you are filling a jar, a party table or a shop counter. A dividing line in most households, and non-negotiable for the people who love it.

Liquorice Pontefract Cakes is stocked in our halal and vegan range. The supplier declares Cereals containing gluten, and we publish the full ingredient list on this page with those allergens in bold so you can check before you order rather than after it arrives. Orders placed before 3pm on a working day go out the same day, and UK delivery is free over £50.

Questions about Liquorice Pontefract Cakes

Is Liquorice Pontefract Cakes safe if I have an allergy?

It depends which allergy. This product declares Cereals containing gluten as ingredients. No separate cross-contamination advisory is given for this line. Our sweets are handled in an area where nuts, milk, wheat and soya are present, so we cannot guarantee a product is free from traces of anything. If you are managing a severe allergy, check the pack on arrival before eating and contact us first if you are unsure.

How many calories are in Liquorice Pontefract Cakes?

320 per 100g, so this 200g bag is roughly 640 kcal in total. At 53g of sugar per 100g, that is 59% of an adult's daily reference intake in every 100g. The full breakdown, including percentage of reference intake, is in the nutrition table on this page.

How many sweets are in a 200g bag of Liquorice Pontefract Cakes?

Each one weighs around 5.5g, so a 200g bag holds roughly 35 sweets. Piece sizes vary a little between batches, so treat this as a guide rather than a guaranteed count.

Is Liquorice Pontefract Cakes suitable for vegans?

Liquorice Pontefract Cakes sits in our vegan range. There is no gelatine in the declared ingredients, which is the usual thing that rules a sweet out. Beeswax, shellac and dairy derivatives are the other things worth scanning the ingredient list for, and it is published in full on this page.

Which size of Liquorice Pontefract Cakes is the best value?

We sell it in 200g, 400g, 1kg, 1.5kg, 2kg, 2.5kg, and 3kg. Buying the largest rather than the smallest cuts the unit price by about 45%. Every size on this page shows its price per 100g, so you can see the break points rather than working them out yourself.

How should I store them, and how long do they keep?

Keep them somewhere cool, dry and out of direct sunlight, and reseal the bag after opening - warmth and damp are what turn sweets sticky or cloudy. The best before date is printed on the pack. Loose-weighed sweets are bagged the day they are dispatched, not pulled off a shelf.

How quickly will my order arrive?

Orders placed before 3pm on a working day are dispatched the same day, and UK delivery is free on orders over £50. Anything ordered after 3pm, or at a weekend, goes out on the next working day.
