Our Holiday Weekend....

The brittle factory was open this weekend, working on orders and items that we are giving away. One of the giveaways was a very nice fall basket of peanut and pecan brittle that went into a church auction. By the way, it brought $150.00!! Below is a picture for you to check out.

Things have changed at the brittle factory, but they are all for the better. We are now using sealable bags, and we bought a special sealer for to do this. It took a little bit to get used to it, but we have it down pat now!! Lauren and Kirsten are the official sealers, they told me to stay away, and continue cooking!!

Our labels have changed too, we wanted a new look and came up with the back to back “B” as our main focus. We love it -- what do you think?

Butler’s Brittle will be in the next Sampler’s Village box that you can purchase. We will be making our brittle for this on Sunday and shipping it out on Monday. Please check out this website if you are interested in ordering one. They are awesome! http://www.samplervillage.com/ .

How Pecan Brittle was born......

Making brittle started out as a necessity after I became a single mother of 2 young kids. Now it has become our passion and our pride. We originally started making only peanut, but about 5 years ago someone asked if we could make pecan. We thought about it and said “what the heck” and gave it a try. We now have our “die hard” peanut fans and our “die hard” pecan fans. Personally, I’m addicted to both! Since we have grown the business so much over the past 10 years, we have enlisted the help our dear and wonderful friends Lauren and Joan. Lauren is the genius behind all of our social networking and Joan will soon be packaging and decorating. We all have a great time together, so it doesn’t seem so much like work!


We enjoy going to the different craft stores to find new and exciting ways to package and decorate our brittle. Be on the lookout for new and exciting stuff this year!
