Pontefract cakes have a long history in England. Though they're called "cakes," they're actually soft, chewy, disk-shaped candies about the size of a quarter, packed with rich licorice flavor. They were first created as a medicine for stomach ailments and coughs. When sugar was added to them in 1760 they became immensely popular and a delightful new confection was born! Potefract cakes have inspired an annual festival, and even a poem entitled "The Licorice Fields at Pontefract" (by Sir John Bentjeman).
