Stuckey's Pecan Log Roll. Do you remember that
great taste of fluffy, cherry-laced nougat wrapped in fresh caramel and
pecans? I can almost see the Stuckey's signs along side of the road.

While it's not exactly known who created the very
first pecan log roll, many would argue that it was Mrs. Stuckey who
actually perfected it. The signature item within all Stuckey's
stores and the "must have" purchase during family travel stops from
the 1950's through today, the candy was first made in the candy
kitchen attached to each store.
In eight Stuckey's stores in the years after World War II, employees
faithfully followed Mrs. Stuckey's original southern recipe. The
maraschino cherry-laced nougat was hand dipped in hot, creamy melted
caramel, then before cooling, freshly shelled pecan halves would be
liberally sprinkled onto the caramel. Each pecan log roll was hand
wrapped and delivered straight to the customer. |
