Peanut butter candy is a traditional delight that has won over palates in various Latin American countries. This dessert, known for its creamy flavor and smooth texture, has roots that date back to the fusion of local ingredients and international influences. In different regions, this candy can be referred to in various ways; for example, in Mexico and Central America, it is common to call it "dulce de cajeta con maní" (peanut caramel candy), while in South America, especially in countries like Colombia and Venezuela, it is simply known as "dulce de maní" (peanut candy). Peanut butter, the main ingredient, became popular in the region thanks to American influence, although its combination with evaporated milk and sugar gives it an authentic and regional touch. Over time, this recipe has been adapted and reinvented in every home, becoming a family and festive dessert enjoyed during celebrations and special moments.
