This isn’t your ordinary brittle. Chock-full of organic California pistachios and flavored with aromatic Madagascar vanilla, it’s crunchy and light, with just the right hit of sweetness.
Like all of Sweetdragon Baking Co.’s products, the candy is made in small batches by a human wielding a spoon.
Though visions of buttery pies danced in her head, Hway-ling Hsu’s sweet culinary journey took an unexpected turn, thanks to one simple brittle. Asked to create a version of the candy for a food truck, the San Jose confectioner “was not excited by the idea.” But she overcame her hesitations. Inspired by one of her grandmother’s favorite treats, she swapped out peanuts for savory black sesame seeds and created an instant sweet classic.
