The company began to mass-produce the allsorts as they have done since then. Bassett's have released two varieties of allsorts that do not feature any liquorice. Fruit Allsorts feature mixed-fruit flavoured sweets, while Dessert Allsorts have flavours such as apple tart and lemon cheesecake. Both retain the shapes and textures of the original ...
By 1780 liquorice growing was concentrated almost wholly in Pontefract and in Surrey, around Godalming. In Pontefract the growing of liquorice was done on plots of land behind people's houses. In a map of the 1648 Siege of Pontefract (reproduced by Chartres [ 3 ] ) the liquorice is indicated as being grown in "garths" either side of Micklegate ...
Sugarelly, Spanish water, or liquorice water, is a traditional British soft drink made with liquorice that was popular in Scotland in the early to mid-20th century. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] It could not usually be bought as such, but instead was prepared by leaving several strands of liquorice to diffuse in water for a period of time before drinking.
In industrial scale water softening plants, the effluent flow from the re-generation process can precipitate scale that can interfere with sewage systems. [3] The slippery feeling associated with washing in soft water is caused by the weaker attraction of the soap to the water ions when the water has been stripped of its mineral content.
The Liquorice Allsorts variety was created by accident when Bassett salesman Charlie Thompson dropped the samples of several different products in front of a prospective client. The client was taken by the idea of selling the sweets all mixed up and in return for the success, the company allowed the client to name the new brand.
Liquorice (Commonwealth English) or licorice (American English; see spelling differences; IPA: / ˈ l ɪ k ər ɪ ʃ,-ɪ s / LIK-ər-ish, -iss) [1] is a confection usually flavoured and coloured black with the extract of the roots of the liquorice plant Glycyrrhiza glabra. A variety of liquorice sweets are produced around the world.
Historically, nanofiltration and other membrane technology used for molecular separation was applied entirely on aqueous systems. The original uses for nanofiltration were water treatment and in particular water softening. [4] Nanofilters "soften" water by retaining scale-forming divalent ions (e.g. Ca 2+, Mg 2+). [5] [6]
Like water softeners, dealkalizers contain ion-exchange resins that are regenerated with a concentrated salt solution - NaCl. In the case of a water softener, the cation exchange resin is exchanging sodium (the Na + ion of NaCl) for hardness minerals such as calcium and magnesium .
