Pralines originated in 17th century France and they are said to be named after Marshal du Plessis Praslin. Praslin was suffering from a case of indigestion and in an effort to aid him, his chef prepared a mixture of sugar and almonds. This dish soon gained popularity among the French and was called the “praslin.”
The sugar coated almonds pictured above are the French version (sugar covered almonds) of the praline.
