Pink Pralines

[HQAntithesis]

Hi everyone,

I was just wondering if anyone could fill me in on what pink pralines are. In books they look like pink almonds. Are they naturally pink (is that a silly question)? If not, how do you make them?

Thanks !

I don't know about it being an almond in sugar, but that is the French (as in from France) version. In New Orleans, there is a pink praline (I guess this would be the Creole french version). It's a praline based on coconut and has a bit of red food color to it. It's only a praline in the sense that is a cooked sugar syrup type candy. I think it could have easily been called a divinity, but we're talking about New Orleans after all. It's a French candy meets the Carribean thing.
