The Peanut Shop of Williamsburg Homestyle Brittle Box is a 10 oz tin of old-fashioned, hand-pulled peanut brittle made in copper kettles using Virginia peanuts and gluten free ingredients.

Comforting and crunchy, this peanut brittle re-creates the flavor and texture of classic homemade candy. Crafted in Colonial Williamsburg traditions, each batch is slow-cooked, hand-pulled, and finished to a glossy crunch that highlights whole Virginia peanuts.

How is this brittle made to taste like the candy you remember?

The Peanut Shop of Williamsburg follows an old-fashioned process: sugar and syrup are boiled to the right stage in bright copper kettles, then combined with Virginia peanuts and hand-pulled to distribute the nuts and lock in a crisp texture. The result is a brittle that balances caramelized sweetness with clear peanut flavor and a satisfying crunch.

• Slow-cooked in bright copper kettles for even caramelization
• Hand-pulled to create a consistent, crunchy texture
• Made with whole Virginia peanuts for pronounced nutty notes

What makes this product suitable for people with dietary concerns?

The Homestyle Brittle Box is prepared using gluten free ingredients, reducing a common allergen concern for many customers. While the recipe avoids gluten-containing ingredients, the product contains peanuts and is made in facilities that may process other allergens, so check labeling if you have multiple food sensitivities.

• Ingredients listed as gluten free to accommodate sensitive diets
• Contains peanuts — not suitable for peanut allergy sufferers
• Clear labeling recommended for those with multiple allergen concerns

How should I serve or gift the 10 oz brittle to make the most of it?

The 10 oz box is ideal for small gatherings, holiday trays, or as a thoughtful gift. Break the brittle into pieces and arrange on a simple platter or include the box as part of a seasonal gift basket for a nostalgic, handmade touch.

• Serve in bite-sized pieces on dessert trays or charcuterie boards

How long will the brittle stay fresh and how should I store it?

Stored in a cool, dry place in its original box or an airtight container, brittle will maintain its crispness for several weeks. Keep it away from humidity and high heat, which can soften the candy and reduce the characteristic snap.

• Keep in airtight container or original box for best texture
• Store at room temperature away from moisture and direct sunlight
• Avoid refrigeration which can introduce humidity and soften brittle
