These pralines have the deep caramel flavor... but it is super creamy & buttery and loaded with toasted pecans. And they have PRALINE BEIGNETS which may be one of the best things I have ever tasted.

The moment you walk in you can tell they make their pralines fresh. It smelled divine inside! It was nice and small and completely free of the souvenir shop nonsense.
