Dickies Peanut Patty

Feb 28.
While here in New Orleans I found a few candies that I haven’t seen except for in this area. The Dickies Peanut Patty by the Tyler Candy Co. is another one. Tyler, Texas is famous for its roses.

Aroma: B Little aroma except maybe a hint of sweetness and peanuts
Texture: B+ Slight snap when bitten it then dissolves a little as you chew
Flavor: A- Peanut, vanilla and sweetness

Calories: 2.5 oz. 1 serving. 250cal.

Rating: A- (Favorite peanut pattie so far)

Comments: Nice fresh peanut pattie and made with just regular corn syrup and sugar. Tyler is known for something else now.
