i've enjoyed Cooper Candy Company's Pecan Brittle as a holiday treat for decades. i recently moved from Salado, Texas to the Asheville, North Carolina area. i wanted to have a taste of home, so i ordered a bucket of Pecan Brittle and paid the exorbitant shipping fee to get it here. what i got was nothing like what i've had in the past. the brittle used to be thin, which allowed the combined flavors of the nuts and brittle to support each other. this brittle was/is at least a quarter of an inch thick. not only that, the brittle was/is burnt. i can smell that burnt sugar smell the instant the bag is open and the taste kinda makes me think of a tobacco taste. i am so deeply disappointed. this is no holiday treat. it's like Santa gave me coal for being a good girl! needless to say, i won't be buying any more of your products in future, even though i deeply appreciate all the years of wonderful brittle. my heart is a little bit broken...
