Description
If croquant disappears quickly in your home — passed round with tea for guests one day, crushed over a pudding the next — the 200 g Ginut pack means you are less likely to run short. Each piece is roasted Giresun hazelnut held in caramelised sugar that hardened as it cooled, so it breaks with that bright, glassy snap. It is the same sweet as the 100 g pack; there is simply enough here for both the serving plate and the dessert bowl.

Cooking with Croquant
To crush it without scattering shards across the worktop, wrap a handful in a clean tea towel and tap it with a rolling pin, or work it in a mortar. Keep the pieces coarse for ice cream and for sprinkling between cake layers; grind them finer when they are going over a milk pudding. Making hazelnut ice cream at home? Fold the crushed croquant in while the mixture is cold and it will hold on to its texture.
Looking After an Opened Pack
Caramel softens once it absorbs moisture, so croquant belongs in a well-sealed jar in a cool, dry place — never in the fridge. If you open the whole pack at once, it helps to divide the contents between two jars: one for everyday use, while the other stays closed and away from the air.
Questions from the Kitchen
My croquant has lost some of its crunch. Can it be saved?
Usually, yes. Warm it in the oven at 150 °C for a few minutes, then let it cool down completely; much of the snap returns.
Which traditional desserts does it go with?
Beyond ice cream and cakes, crushed croquant brings an unexpected crunch to classics such as semolina halva and muhallebi.
What should people with food allergies know?
It contains hazelnuts. The ingredients are roasted Giresun hazelnuts and caramelised sugar; for the exact ingredient statement, always check the label on the pack.
