Almuegaarden

Salt licorice lollipops were to die for. Unfortunately there doesn’t appear to be a way to get them shipped to the US. Bring home a suitcase full, they’ll last.

I think this is the right place? But I stumbled upon this candy shop on my trip through Tivoli. They have the best assortment of liquorice, anise, and other «odd» flavors, all of which I love. Their anise and cola flavored hard candy are outstanding, but the clear winner is the bergamot. That’s right — of Earl Grey fame, they actually have bergamot flavored candy, and it’s SUPER delicious. Their website is in Danish and doesn’t machine translate well, but it looks like for 50 DKK, you can get a 200gr bag of sweets. I don’t care what the international shipping is, there is more bergamot flavored candy in my near future. I’m eating the last of my bergamot drops as we speak… and it saddens me.
The staff looked thrilled to be dealing with the kids going ballistic in the shop, but I don’t expect theme park employees to be bursting with pride and excitement for their jobs. However, they’re about the only unfriendly people I’ve run in to so far in Denmark. But… it’s worth it.
