Liquorice allsorts are these things. A few people wrote to ask why I didn't include the ones covered in little balls - honestly the reason is because those sort are very rare in Australia and I completely forgot that they existed. Even the cylindrical ones are not that common here - we mostly just get the cubes with flat layers of liquorice and fondant.

Liquorice is a very polarising subject. I got one hack-in vote for: "They should be banned".
