Liquorice, as Nigella Lawson pointed out on Monday evening’s episode of Simply Nigella, isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. Some of us love it, some totally loathe the stuff. So when Nigella cracked open her liquorice box and added a hearty helping to her chocolate and blackcurrant cake, it totally divided opinions on Twitter.

First, there were those who just couldn’t get over the fact that anyone on Earth actually owns a liquorice box. But apparently Nigella does.

To liquorice lovers, the recipe was music to their ears.

Meanwhile, others thought the liquorice-chocolate combination came straight from the fiery depths of hell.

Alright, alright! We’ve heard enough. Let the Twitter poll decide once once and for all.
