Many years ago, John Spalding had a hankering for some good old-fashioned peanut brittle, like his Mother used to make. Unfortunately, after searching high & low for quality brittle, all he could find was the cheap stuff you know, peanut brittle that is all brittle and no nuts!!! Frustrated in not being able to find any quality brittle and choosing not to break his teeth on the low-end stuff, John decided he could do better! So, in 1985, John F. Spalding dusted off his Great-Grandma Spalding's old-fashioned peanut brittle recipe (from the 1860s) and went to work. After years of refining the family recipe, John discovered that by reducing the amount of sugar and corn syrup in his brittle, while at the same time increg the number of nuts in his recipe he could produce the most delicious gourmet brittles ever made! Johns gourmet brittles have delicious peanuts, cashews and pecans surrounded in a sweet and savory layer of buttery, golden brittle. They have all the nut flavor that he craved, with just the right touch of sweetness added in. In 2007, John named his company the Brittle Brothers and has never looked back. You need only try it one time to understand why Brittle Brothers have been voted the most the delicious gourmet brittles in America!
