hese confections are so good that most folks would never guess they’re sugar free. It took us awhile to come up with a milk chocolate coating that rivals our original recipe...but we did it! Our official taste-testers (relatives, neighbors, and some lucky in-store customers) gave us the “thumbsup” to say these are equal in flavor to our signature version. We take plump, roasted pecans, foldthem by hand into rich, sucrose-free chocolate and let them cool. Then dip them one more timefor a double taste sensation. Available in gift bags, clear acrylic gift boxes and gift tins.
