Dawan A-Mao A-Hao Peanut Candy Introduction
The peanut candy sold in Dawan, Yongkang District, has a unique flavor that differs from the hard varieties. Dawan peanut candy is the most representative specialty of Yongkang, available in various flavors, including peanut brittle and peanut candy. It's sweet and chewy without sticking to your teeth, soft on the outside and crunchy on the inside, with an increasingly rich and sweet taste as you chew. This peanut candy is handmade, using either sun-dried fresh or cooked peanuts. The main ingredients for the sugar include low-sweetness maltose and high-quality granulated sugar, cooked over a fire for one hundred minutes while being continuously stirred. After cooling, it is naturally air-dried, sliced, and packaged, resulting in a flavorful peanut candy.
