Fazer Tyrkisk Peber candy

Tyrkisk Peber (Turkish Pepper) is a legendary salty liquorice brand originally invented by Claus Hommelhoff in Denmark in 1976. However, its history is deeply intertwined with the Finnish company Fazer, which acquired the rights to the product and began mass production in 1989. Today, while it remains a cultural staple across the Nordic countries and Germany, it is primarily manufactured in Finland under Fazer's strict quality standards. The brand represents a unique segment of the confectionery market, combining strong ammonium chloride (salmiak) flavor with a peppery kick. Fazer, the ultimate owner, is a family-owned Finnish food company that has expanded from a local confectionery and bakery business into an international group specializing in food experience and sustainable food solutions.
