PROFRUIT sweet peanuts are peanuts coated in a shell of caramelised sugar, a popular confectionery in West Africa, especially in Senegal. 500 g bag, made in France.
What are PROFRUIT sweet peanuts?
Roasted peanuts, covered in a layer of cooked sugar that hardens into a crunchy shell. The ingredients are just peanuts and sugar. They are also called caramelised peanuts; this type of confectionery is sold by many West African grocery stores, including in France.
How to use them?
They are enjoyed as they are, by the handful, with drinks or at teatime. Crushed, they add crunch to a fruit salad, an ice cream or a yoghurt, or in a homemade pastry. Keep the bag tightly closed to preserve the shell's crunch.
What to pair them with?
Plain, unsweetened peanut is the base of West African peanut sauces: find TANTIE peanut paste or the Senegalese Mafé kit for cooking. For a sweet and savoury platter, pair these sweet peanuts with PROFRUIT roasted salted almonds. The Exotic Snacks & Treats section brings these products together.
