Verinha Traditional Sweet Peanut (Paçoca) 210g

Paçoca (Brazilian Peanut Candy)

Paçoca de amendoim known as Paçoquinha is a traditional Brazilian treat made of peanuts, sugar and salt, popular in the Southeast of Brazil.

The name, pronounced pah-sso-kah, comes from the indigenous Tupi word “posok”, which means “to crumble” or “to smash”. And that’s because this sweet treat was traditionally made using a mortar and pestle.
