Application Areas

These candied pecan pieces perform well wherever a sweet, crunchy nut element is needed. In bakery production, they integrate smoothly into batter-based items and hold their candied coating through standard bake temperatures. On salad bars, their medium piece size allows easy scooping and even distribution. For dessert assembly, they adhere well to frosted surfaces and frozen desserts without becoming soggy during typical service windows. Cafes can portion them into small cups or sprinkle directly onto plated items for presentation.

Preparation & Use

No preparation is needed; the pieces are ready to use straight from the bag. For baking, add directly to batter or dough at the mixing stage. For topping, scatter by hand or spoon over the finished product. Store sealed at room temperature in a dry environment. Once opened, reseal the bag or transfer to an airtight container to maintain crunch and candied coating integrity. The 270-day shelf life applies to unopened product stored under recommended conditions.
