Malaco Allsorts

Malaco Allsorts is a well-known assortment of English-style liquorice confectionery popular across the Nordic countries, including Denmark. The mix features various layered sweets combining black liquorice with colorful coconut, aniseed, and sugar pastes in distinct geometric shapes.

The Malaco brand originated in Sweden in 1934 under the name Malmö Lakrits Compani (from which the acronym Malaco is derived). Over the decades, Malaco grew to become one of Scandinavia's most iconic candy manufacturers, introducing classic treats such as Gott & Blandat, Snøre, and licensing or producing Allsorts mixes tailored for Nordic tastes.

Today, Malaco is owned by Cloetta AB, a prominent confectionery company headquartered in Solna, Sweden. Cloetta operates several manufacturing facilities across Europe, with its English liquorice and Allsorts assortments predominantly produced at Cloetta's dedicated liquorice factory in Sneek, the Netherlands, before being distributed to retail markets throughout Denmark and the rest of Europe by Cloetta Danmark ApS.
