Jinfuh Dawan Peanut Candy - Chihkan Store Introduction
Dawan Peanut Candy has a history of over a century and emphasizes pure handcrafted production, passing down through four generations. The fourth-generation successor, Zheng Wansheng, established the flagship store opposite the historic site "Chihkan Tower" in Tainan City, preserving traditional flavors while enhancing the hygiene and quality of the store environment. The packaging has evolved to extend the tasting period, maintaining the artistry of four generations. Every day, they insist on making the candy fresh on the same day, cutting and selling it directly. They use fresh peanuts combined with low-sweetness maltose and high-quality granulated sugar, boiled for over an hour over a wooden fire. The process requires continuous hand stirring to avoid burning, resulting in a texture that is more delicate and less sticky compared to machine-made peanut candy.
