Wiley Wallaby Classic Black Gourmet Licorice

Wiley Wallaby is a popular brand of gourmet licorice known for its soft and chewy texture. Despite the Australian-themed name and the kangaroo logo, the brand was actually founded in the United States and has its roots in the Midwest. It was created to provide a thick, soft-bite alternative to traditional, harder licorice sticks.

While inspired by Australian-style licorice traditions, Wiley Wallaby is primarily manufactured in the United States, specifically at production facilities in Perham, Minnesota. This localized production allows the brand to maintain strict quality control and freshness for the North American market.

The brand is owned by Kenny's Candy & Confections, which is a subsidiary of KLN Family Brands. KLN Family Brands is a third-generation family-owned company based in Minnesota that manages several well-known snack and candy labels. They are committed to maintaining the brand's reputation for using high-quality ingredients and traditional cooking methods.
