We are now proud to present our newest delicacy: Pecan Pralines.
But whats a praline?
Pecan pralines originated in the South and have been growing in popularity across the United States. A creamy combination of fresh pecans skillfully combines with sugar, butter, and cream – this southern delight is now loved everywhere they are sold.
Now easy to make!
Pralines are a craft candy traditionally made by the most skilled candy make. However, we have developed a mix that allows you to easily and consistently produce pralines in the same equipment you already use to make fudge.
The process is very similar to fudge: start with butter, water, and add the dry mix along with included flavor packets. After it is completely cooked and blended, add the pecans. Instead of pouring slabs when the batch is completed, you simply scoop the pralines out of the kettle and allow them to cool overnight.
Same great margins you expect from Kettle Fresh Fudge.
Finished praline cost is $0.71 to $0.98 per 2.5-oz to 3.5-oz serving. SRP is $3-$4.

While fudge has an extremely long shelf life, it will eventually dry out. Factors such as how much water was used to prepare the fudge and other conditions such as outside humidity will also cause variations in the shelf life. It typically sells so fast shelf life is rarely an issue. If you have fudge that does dry out it can be melted down and used again to make fresh fudge – so no product waste!
