Once a staple in every snack box, peanut candy gradually faded behind modern junk food. But now, it’s making a flavorful comeback reminding us that some traditions are too good to forget.
Every place holds something special — a unique blend of culture, tradition, or nostalgic charm. One such gem is Kovilpatti, a town in the Thoothukudi district of Tamil Nadu, India. Known for its cultural richness, Kovilpatti has gifted us a timeless treat: the Kadalai Mittai, also known as Peanut Candy or Chikki.
Loved across generations, this traditional sweet snack continues to win hearts. But what makes it truly special?
It’s crafted using high-quality roasted peanuts & natural jaggery— with absolutely no added white sugar or preservatives. This makes it not only delicious but also protein-rich and energy-boosting.
