Texas pecan halves get coated in a praline candy glaze, then cooked until the sugar sets into a brittle shell. The pieces sit between nut and candy, with the pecan’s natural oils and the cooked sugar doing most of the work. In H-E-B’s lineup, these lean more toward a packaged confection than a snack mix or trail blend. They come ready to eat, but the glaze can also soften if they’re warmed or used as a topping for ice cream, yogurt, or salads. Because the coating is made from sugar, butter, and pecans, the texture is mostly crunch with a little chew underneath.
