Jinfu Dawan Peanut Candy - Chihkan Store Introduction
Dawan Peanut Candy has a history of over a hundred years, emphasizing pure handmade production, and has been passed down for 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 quality and hygiene of the store environment, and evolving the packaging to extend the tasting period. Adhering to four generations of craftsmanship, they insist on making the candy fresh daily, cut on site, using fresh peanuts combined with low-sweetness malt syrup and selected granulated sugar, cooked over a wooden furnace for more than an hour. The process requires constant manual stirring to prevent burning, resulting in a more refined and delicate texture compared to machine-made peanut candy, and it is also less sticky to the teeth.
