Peanut Candy

Peanut candy, known in Malabar as kappalandi mittayi, is crunchy, nutty and just sweet enough. Arara Foods packs it in clear jars in two styles, golden peanut brittle pieces and deep-brown candy squares, with every piece sealed in its own wrapper.

KERALA SWEETS

Roasted peanuts, golden candy, one good snap

Peanuts roasted until the kitchen smells warm and toasty, folded into a sweet, glossy syrup and spread out to set: that is the whole idea of peanut candy, and it has been a favourite from the tea shops of Malabar to the sweet stalls of every Kerala town. In Malayalam, peanut is kappalandi (and mittayi means sweet), so a piece of peanut candy is kappalandi mittayi.

The pleasure is in the contrast. A hard, glassy snap, then whole nuts that crunch and release their roasted flavour, then a lingering sweetness that asks for one more piece. Arara Foods keeps each piece in its own wrapper, so the crunch you open is the crunch that was packed.

Two styles of peanut candy

Peanut Candy Brittle Pieces (jar pack)

These golden brittle pieces are full of whole and halved peanuts held together in glossy candy, so every bite is more nut than sweetness. The crunch is loud and satisfying, the roasted peanut flavour comes through clearly, and the candy adds just enough sweetness to finish each mouthful.

Each piece is wrapped in clear film inside the jar. That keeps the pieces apart and the brittle crisp, and it makes the jar easy to pass around: take one, snap it into bite-sized shards and share.

Peanut brittle is the snack for a bus ride, a rainy afternoon, a school bag or a desk drawer. It is also a very good partner for a hot glass of tea, because the roasted flavour of the peanuts balances the sweetness of the tea.

Arara Foods peanut candy squares in deep golden brown, wrapped in clear film inside a jar with a red lid, with a bowl of peanuts and a candy slab beside it

Deep-brown peanut candy squares

Peanut Candy Squares (jar pack)

These peanut candy squares are deeper in colour, a rich golden brown that hints at a more caramel-like sweetness. Crushed peanuts are packed closely into each flat square, giving a dense, crunchy texture with nutty flavour in every bite.

Each square is wrapped in clear film, which keeps it crisp and lets you see the speckled peanut texture. The squares are a convenient size for tea trays, hampers, office snack tables and children’s snack boxes.

If you like your peanut candy firm and richly sweet, rather than light and brittle, this is the one to choose. Keep both styles on the table and see which one disappears first.

A square is easy to portion for children’s snack boxes: break it in half and each half still holds plenty of peanut. It also crushes neatly over a bowl of plain curd or ice cream for a quick, crunchy topping.
