Once set, the resulting confectionery can be broken into pieces to create the characteristic brittle texture.As a food product, hazelnut brittle is known for its rich flavor, crunchy texture, and versatility in use - it can be enjoyed on its own as a snack, used as an ingredient in baking or cooking, or even made into decorative shapes and presented as a gift.
