Aniseed twist

The aniseed twist is a red, aniseed-flavoured boiled sweet common in the United Kingdom. Confectioners who make aniseed twists include Bonds of London and Trebor. The relative piquancy of the sweet's aniseed flavour varies considerably among confectioners.

Although aniseed twists resemble throat lozenges, particularly Cough Candy Twists, throat lozenges taste of spice, menthol, and eucalyptus oil.
