About Mani confitado

Maní Confitado, or candied peanuts, is a popular snack originating from Latin American cuisine, particularly enjoyed in countries like Argentina and Brazil. This sweet treat is made by coating roasted peanuts in a caramelized mixture of sugar and water, sometimes enhanced with vanilla or cinnamon for added flavor. While it offers the protein and heart-healthy fats naturally found in peanuts, its high sugar content significantly increases its calorie density and may contribute to spikes in blood sugar levels. As a result, Maní Confitado is best enjoyed in moderation as a delightful indulgence rather than a health-focused snack. Perfect for satisfying a sweet tooth, it remains a beloved cultural favorite for its crunchy texture and rich, sweet coating.
