licorice rope

Twisted black candy

A licorice rope is a long, flexible strand of licorice candy, typically twisted or braided.

The rope form allows for pulling apart and sharing, or biting off pieces: She chewed on a licorice rope during the movie.

Red licorice ropes are more popular in America than the traditional black.
