What it is
These are whole almonds that have been coated in a sweet honey glaze. The glaze typically consists of honey, sugar, and sometimes a touch of salt or other flavorings. The roasting process gives the almonds a satisfying crunch, while the glaze provides a sweet, slightly sticky coating. They are a popular snack item, offering a combination of nutty flavor and sweetness.
