- "Oh, Harry, do feel free to indulge in a little Licorice Snap in my absence. But I have to warn you, they're a wee bit sharp."
- — Albus Dumbledore offers this sweet to Harry Potter[src]
Licorice Snap[2] was a magical sweet that would bite anyone who picked them up.[1]
Description[]
They were jet black in colour, like most liquorice, and somewhat resembled leeches. They were about three to four centimetres long, had a set of sharp teeth and tongue, and made a squealing sound.[1]
History[]
Albus Dumbledore kept a bowl of these sweets in his office and offered some to Harry Potter in 1995, warning that they were "a wee bit sharp". Harry helped himself to a great handful, resulting in the sweets biting his hand. The resulting attack from the sweets were also responsible for Harry discovering the Pensieve due to him stumbling back into the area containing it and knocking the doors open.[1]
