The Peanut Shop of Williamsburg Peanut Brittle 16 oz Tin — Hand-Pulled, Copper Kettle Cooked

Made in the spirit of colonial-era confectionery, this peanut brittle combines crunchy roasted peanuts with a glossy, amber sugar crunch for a classic candy experience. The Peanut Shop of Williamsburg uses small-batch, hand-pulled techniques developed in its original Williamsburg shop; the result is a timeless snack that’s kosher certified and made with gluten-free ingredients.

What makes this peanut brittle different from mass-produced varieties?

This brittle is crafted in small batches and hand-pulled after copper kettle cooking, which gives it a distinct snap and sheen that factory methods often miss. The process preserves peanut texture and creates a crisp, glassy candy coating.

• Hand-pulled finish for a glossy, even texture
• Copper kettle cooking for controlled caramelization
• High peanut-to-candy ratio for pronounced nut flavor
• Small-batch production minimizes unwanted airiness or graininess
