One Link occupies a singles square. A chain of liquorice links is linked together by the string.
You can remove the links by making adjacent matches or striking it with a special. If one link is destroyed, the whole chain is destroyed.
A Double Color Bomb combo strips one layer of all links on board, but they can still be destroyed immediately if one of them in a chain is one-layered. A Color Bomb + Coloring Candy can strip all layers.
In later episodes, you may see candies and other elements trapped in the Licorice Links. Those links cannot be destroyed. However, they are still connected with some normal Licorice Links so that the player can break them.

This blocker first appears in Pirate Pond which first being level 2831. Their function and layers are similar to the original. However, they are broken faster.
In Candy Crush Saga, one of its blockers, 'Rainbow Twist', share the same properties as this blocker. However, that blocker can have up to 5 layers.
After the release of this blocker (mid-2015, with the game being officially released in Fall 2014), new blockers are released much less frequently. The only blockers released after this (besides different types of licorice links, released around 2018/2019) are peppermint sticks (released in late 2016), pancakes (this game's counterpart to waffles from the original Candy Crush Saga, released Summer 2019), and candy cubes (released Fall 2021).
