The Amarelli family has been harvesting and processing liquorice root in Calabria since the 1500's.  In 1731, the family opened the "Liquorizia Amarelli" company and have been making a wide range of liquorice-based products ever since. Today, the Amarelli brand is synonymous with quality liquorice products that run the gamet from candy and chocolate, to beer and liquers, and even includes a Marvis toothpaste flavour. This Amarelli liquorice powder is very fine and easily soluble.  It will add a distinctive punch to any dessert application it is added to.
