Homemade Local Pecan Candy Sold by a Neighbor

Pecan candies on the plate

I bought pecan candy from small vendor long time ago. He said the candies are made by himself.

It was first time I taste pecan candies, a special candy from Louisiana. I can not eat more than two, since they are so sweet for me, due to higher sugar content.

Pecan is a tree, native to southern parts (states) of USA such as:
- Georgia
- Texas
- Mississippi
- Alabama
- Arkansas
- Arizona
- California
- Florida
- Louisiana


Single candy is wrapped in the special plastic


Pecan tree scientific name is Carya illinoinensis. The trees produce nut, also called as “pecan.”

Pecan nuts are believed to have some health benefits:
- anti-oxidants to lower hearth diseases risk
- lower risk of cancer
- anti-inflammatory
- to get better digestion
- boosts immunity


Candies inside boxes

Pecan candy means candy with pecans (nuts) inside. Pecan nuts are cooked and stirred with:
- brown sugar
- white sugar
- milk
- butter

One of our neighbors sell homemade Pecan candies. We have software application called “next door” to communicate and posting relevant neighborhood issues.

We may order candies through online with bargaining prices and even ask for free.

Wonderful neighborhood.

    Even though they might be too sweet for me too, they do look wonderful.

    ...in the '60s while studying horticulture at the University of Georgia I worked with a professor doing pecan research.

    but it will be quite tasty.

    Tanza, I'm thinking that these luscious candies are pralines, a big favorite in Louisiana. Stay Safe and Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
