River Street Sweets: River Street Sweets Praline Tin

First to recommend

Description

Pralines, a confection made with pralines, is a rare treat since I live so far from the South. But once you have tasted one, you will never forget the perfect blend of salty and sweet in a well-concocted praline. Give a hostess, neighbor, or cubicle mate a one- or two-pound holiday tin for a grand reception. Good gifting (and getting.)
