We’ve been busy adding dairy alternatives to our reviews, but a delicious snackable treat came across my email that I just had to share. Nutkrack Caramelized Pecans are sweet, salty, buttery nuts that are made in a dairy-free, gluten-free kitchen.
Nutkrack Caramelized Pecans are Handcrafted Without Dairy, Gluten, and Soy
Nutkrack is a small, family-run business where every batch is made by hand. Chef Eric Rupert and his son Kellen create the perfect balance with just four ingredients, for an energizing sweet snack. They have a local storefront, but they are also shipping to customers nationwide.
At this time, Nutkrack comes in just one variety, but we’ll update if they add more. And please do leave a review and rating below if you have purchased it.

Allergen Note*
Nutkrack maintains their own facility where they only produce their caramelized nuts. Here is what they told us about their allergen protocols:
We are the sole occupants of our space. Nutkrack is also the only product we make, so no shared use with any other nuts or ingredients beyond the four in our product. We have a strict policy not to allow any other tree nuts/peanuts in the facility at all, and all employees are made aware of it on their first day. We do allow gluten and dairy into the building for staff consumption, but not past the doors that separate the staff/office area from the production kitchen and retail area of the shop. And of course, we practice good hygiene and frequent glove changes!

These are delicious!
They’re less sugary sweet than most candied pecans, which I really like. They’re sweet enough for a treat, but still snack-worthy, and have a satisfying crispy crunch. They don’t stick together much either, which makes them even better for enjoying one by one. My dad and husband really enjoyed them too.
Delicious!
I live in Madison, WI where these are made and they are amazing! I can’t keep them in the house because we will eat them all in one day. If you love sweet and salty snacks, you should definitely try these.
