We make delicious creamy-soft caramel from scratch in small batches every day and dollop it onto a bed of crunchy Louisiana pecan pieces to form the body of the Tortue (the French word for turtle). Each pecan-caramel patty is then hand-swirled with your choice of milk, dark or white chocolate to create the turtle's shell. A sumptuous crown on an American classic. We also offer plain tortues, which are simply patties of our rich, soft caramel on a crunchy pecan base, without any chocolate on top. They're great if you're nuts about out caramel. Just choose Plain from the drop-down menu. Note: Plain tortues are NOT included in assortments. Not big on pecans? We also make tortues with other nuts, or no nuts at all, to please every palate.
