For lunar new year we had a bunch of candy and treats delivered to our office. And whatever these bad boys are are stupidly delicious!
Can anyone tell me what these are? And where I could buy some downtown? There were a bunch of different colours/flavours, one was for sure peanut and one was coconut. They were like a more delicate version of the centre of a butterfingers candy bar.

These can be found in any asian supermarket like T&T, maybe even walmart and loblaws if you check their asian aisle! They’re called “Hsu Fu Chi Crispy Candy” and is a yellow package.

Just go to T&T or nations. I think they are made of peanuts
Hsu Fu Chi Crisp Candy — you can find it at chinese supermarkets like T&T on College

Ha – thank you for asking this. I also ate this treat at the office for LNY celebrations and saved the wrapper to remember because I really liked it. The pink one was coconut but I preferred this one (sesame). I’ll check T&T (maybe will be on sale after new year?)
Freshco at Nassau sells it, international snacks aisle.
Funnily enough, I impulse bought some of these today! From FreshCo (and they were reduced too!)

T&T will definitely have it right now. I’m a big fan of the orange coloured one (peanut)
Most Asian grocery store will carry them, but Brazillians also eats them. They call them Paçoca.
T&T for sure.
Please ensure you warn others that they contain peanuts and other nuts. Otherwise, Delicious!
