Humbug Pillow Candy

Humbug Pillow Candy is a 100 g bag of humbugs, which the maker describes as aniseed style and calls an old-time favourite. Aniseed has a warm, sweet flavour close to black licorice. Pillow candy takes its name from its shape: small, plump cushions cut from a rope of cooked sugar. The humbug sits in the maker's pillow candy range, and the maker says the Origins Market shop has a pillow candy cutting machine that children can sometimes have a turn at cranking. Made by Sour Boys Candy, a family-run candy maker in Busselton. Sour Boys says its candy is hand-made locally in Busselton. For something sharper, see its Pineapple Sour Candy. Seeing it in person Sour Boys has a shop inside Origins Market on West Street, Busselton. Origins Market's page for Sour Boys says you can watch the candy being made by hand there (checked 15 October 2026). Check the market's own site for opening times before you go. Delivery We found no postage details on Sour Boys Candy's site on 15 October 2026, so check postage at its checkout. Questions Does it taste of mint? Not by the maker's description. Humbugs are often peppermint, but Sour Boys describes this one as aniseed style. Can I watch pillow candy being cut? Possibly. The machine is at the Origins Market shop, but no times are published, so it may not be running when you call in.
