National Praline Day

Happy National Praline Day! If you don’t know what a praline is, then you are missing out!

Pralines are confections consisting of nuts covered in a caramel sugar coating. One of my favorite places to get Pralines is in Savannah, GA.

River Street Sweets makes thousands of these delicious treats daily!

Hot melt in your mouth globs of caramel and pecan are spooned out and cooled on a marble table top. When cooled, these pralines will look like this.

 

You can eat the candies as they are, or you can use pralines in a variety of other dishes. After searching the web, here are some food bloggers that have done some pretty impressive things with pralines!
