Licorice Wands

A common wizarding sweet, offered on the food trolley on the Hogwarts Express (PS6).

Horace Slughorn comments on the food available on the Hogwarts Express trolley, particularly the licorice wands, saying that they are too much for a 'poor old man's digestive system' (HBP7).

'Licorice wand' is one of Harry's guesses when he is trying to guess the password to Dumbledore's office, which is always some sort of sweet (GF29).
