Licorice laces are long, thin candy strands with a soft, chewy texture. They’re popular for snacking and for decorating treats because they’re flexible and easy to shape.

• Common names include licorice laces, shoelace candy, and shoestring licorice.
• Typical flavors include strawberry, cherry, classic licorice, blue raspberry, and rainbow assortments.
• They’re often used for braiding, tying bows, edging cakes, or topping sundaes.

On this page, you’ll find a variety of colors, flavors, and pack sizes, so you can choose what fits your event, theme, or taste.

These terms are usually used interchangeably for the same candy style: thin, flexible strands similar to shoelaces. The exact look and chew can vary by product, but the idea is similar.

• Both describe skinny strands made for nibbling, tying, or decorating.
• Differences may include strand thickness, length, and overall chewiness.
• If you plan to braid or spell names, look for longer, pliable strands labeled as laces or shoestrings.

Product photos and descriptions can help confirm the strand style before you add an item to your cart.

These flexible strands can add a playful touch to desserts and party setups.

• Cakes and cupcakes: outline shapes, create borders, or tie small bows.
• Cookies and brownies: spell names, stripes, or simple patterns for team colors.
• Treat bags and candy buffets: use as colorful accents or edible ties.
• Quick tip: press laces onto soft frosting or use a thin line of melted chocolate to help them stay put.

For younger kids, consider cutting shorter pieces and supervising to keep things tidy and reduce any risk during crafting and snacking.

Good storage habits can help maintain chewiness and flexibility over time.

• Reseal the package tightly after each use and press out extra air.
• Store in a cool, dry pantry away from heat and direct sunlight.
• If the bag isn’t resealable, transfer laces to an airtight container or zip-top bag.
• Avoid humid spots, which can make strands sticky.
• If they feel firm after storage, letting them sit at room temperature may help improve texture.

Packaging guidance and conditions can vary, so enjoying them within a reasonable timeframe is generally recommended.
