African American women, who were indentured servants to the French, created pecan candy. Pralines were originally created in Europe as roasted covered almonds with sugar and/or chocolate. However, after discovering Louisiana’s natural abundance of pecans, indentured African American women combined them with milk, butter, and sugar, then formed a patty. This is how Pecan Candy/ American Pralines became what it is today!

Quick and easy ordering, followed with prompt shipping. I must say they’re delicious and melt in my mouth. In addition, I didn’t have to leave home to find them.
I attended the luncheon yesterday at the Market at Tops. The sample of Creole-ish praline was delicious. My husband said this was the closest anyone has come to matching his mom’s pralines in taste, color, and texture. We will be placing orders for our out of state friends and purchasing locally at the Attakapas Collective! Thanks for the opportunity to learn about your products.
