Thomasina's Cashew Brittle: 100 Favorite Dishes, No. 51
Categories: 100 Favorite Dishes of 2011, The Sweet Life
Thomasina's Cashew Brittle This brittle is anything but.
Brittle is brittle is brittle, right? We thought so, too until Thomasina's Cashew Brittle came into our lives. If you love sticky, rock hard, overly sugary brittle, these handmade, small-batch confections aren't for you. After years of experimenting with traditional brittle recipes and formulating the right balance of ingredients, owner Thomasina Petrus has perfected the gluten-free, preservative-free treat.
Thomasina's brittle is simultaneously crunchy and soft, at least in comparison to traditional store-bought varieties. You won't leave the experience with a cracked tooth, and each bite doesn't result in "I think I just pulled out a filling" thoughts.
