Crushed Pink Pralines 1kg

Add a touch of French tradition to your baking with our crushed pink pralines with 20% Almonds, a vibrant speciality from the renowned Lyon region of France. Known locally as pralines roses, these crushed pink pralines are made using a time-honoured recipe that combines whole toasted almonds and layers of bright pink, caramelised sugar for a distinctive flavour and texture.

These pralines are crafted in France and crushed to a coarse, versatile consistency, making them perfect for use in classic French desserts. With 20% almond content, they offer a rich, nutty crunch that balances the sweetness of the caramelised coating.

Crushed pink pralines are most famously used in the traditional Tarte aux Pralines Roses, a regional dessert made by melting the pralines with cream and butter to create a luscious pink filling. They’re also ideal for adding colour and crunch to pastries, cookies, brioches, and other sweet creations. Try them sprinkled over ice cream, folded into cake batter, or used as a topping for pancakes and waffles.

How are pink pralines made? The process begins by gently toasting almonds, then slowly heating them with sugar and pink colouring in a copper pan. The sugar caramelises and forms multiple layers over the almonds, creating a hard, glossy shell. Once cooled, the pralines are crushed to produce a ready-to-use ingredient that adds both texture and visual appeal to a wide range of desserts.
