How to make peanut brittle?

Roasting

Two Oven Roasted Peanut Machine
  • Peanuts are first roasted to enhance aroma and improve texture, which is essential for high-quality peanut candy.
  • A commercial peanut roasting machine ensures even heating through continuous drum rotation, preventing local scorching.
  • The roaster supports both electric and gas heating options and is suitable for peanuts, sesame seeds, walnuts, almonds, and other nuts.

Peeling

  • After roasting, peanuts are peeled to remove the red skin, which can cause bitterness if left on.
  • The peanut peeling machine uses roller friction for efficient skin removal.
  • Peeling efficiency reaches up to 98%, with a low breakage rate to maintain kernel integrity.
Dry Type Peanut Peeling Machine

Making syrup

Jacket Kettle
  • Sugar is melted into syrup using a jacketed kettle, forming the binding base of peanut candy.
  • The built-in stirring system prevents sticking and ensures uniform heating.
  • Additional ingredients such as honey can be added during this process to enhance flavor.

Mixing

  • Roasted peanuts and syrup are thoroughly mixed to achieve uniform coating.
  • The tilting mixer allows easy unloading and smooth operation.
  • A food-grade inner lining prevents material from sticking to the mixing drum while maintaining low noise levels.
Mixer

Forming and cutting

Peanut Candy Forming Machine
  • The mixed material is fed into the peanut brittle forming and cutting machine, the core unit of the production line.
  • A compression system shapes the mixture into flat slabs with consistent thickness.
  • An air-cooling system helps stabilize the shape before cutting.
  • The cutting unit slices the slabs into uniform bars or blocks, with adjustable speed to meet different size requirements.

Packing

  • Finished peanut candies are packaged using an automatic snack packing machine.
  • Multiple packaging models are available to match different production capacities and packaging styles.
  • The packaging system ensures hygienic handling and improves product presentation for market distribution.
