Peanut

The peanut — despite its name — is not a nut but a legume.

The story of the peanut begins in South America, where it was first enjoyed by indigenous peoples. They greatly valued its taste and nutritional benefits, making it an essential part of their daily diet. After Columbus landed in the Americas, the peanut gradually spread across the world and became one of the most popular ingredients in confectionery and cuisine.

Peanuts are a treasure trove of vitamins and nutrients, packed with beneficial properties. The vitamins and minerals found in peanuts are vital for maintaining the body’s essential functions. They are nourishing, flavorful, and full of energy — rich in protein, fiber, healthy fats, and valuable plant-based compounds that make them a powerful natural food source.

Carefully selected, high-quality peanuts mark the beginning of a delightful journey into the world of confectionery, bringing their rich, distinctive flavor to every creation.

They can be used whole and roasted, crushed into pieces, or turned into peanut butter. Peanuts are added to chocolate, caramel, and dragees, blending perfectly with ingredients like honey or fruit fillings to create unique and memorable flavor combinations.

Our “Meteorit” candies embody this harmony of nature’s gifts — where peanuts and honey intertwine to form a classic Bucuria favorite.

Indulge in “Fani” dragees — whole roasted peanuts covered in a delicate shell and dusted with fine cocoa for a refined touch.
