Aunt Sally's Pralines

Iconic sweet shop known for its creamy pecan confections, a Southern candy tradition enjoyed by visitors and locals alike.

Tips from the community

Pralines: Pralines are something that I will typically bring to my family as souvenirs whenever I go North. They are sweet, toffee-like cookies with a base of brown sugar, butter, and pecans. Plenty of stores in the French Quarter sell boxes to go, but Aunt Sally’s is the best. I prefer creamy pralines to chewy, but both varieties are outstanding.

    New Oreans is a city brimming with exciting nightlife, arts, culture, and of course - food. No trip would be complete without sampling a bite of Jambalaya or some classic gumbo. The Big Easy is a gastronomic paradise featuring cuisines from all over the world. Some dishes have served the test of time and still appear on restaurant menus and in family kitchens from the banks of the Mississippi to Lake Pontchartrain. I’ve lived in New Orleans for two years now and with the help of local friends curated a list of some of the best restaurants to try the city’s most iconic dishes.
