Kent Sesame Candy is a crunchy confection made mainly from sugar and sesame, with the sugar forming a firm coating around the sesame. For the full ingredient list of a particular pack, use the information printed on its wrapper.
Kent Sesame Candy is made by combining sesame with cooked sugar, then allowing the mixture to cool and harden into a brittle candy. The hardened sugar is what gives it its characteristic snap.
Kent Sesame Candy is similar to sesame brittle: both combine sesame with hardened sugar for a crunchy result. Recipes and shapes can differ, so the names do not guarantee that every sesame brittle tastes or breaks exactly like this candy.
Store Kent Sesame Candy in a cool, dry place with its wrapper sealed or in an airtight container. Moisture can make the sugar coating tacky and soften the crunch, so avoid leaving it exposed to humid air.
Kent Sesame Candy can lose its crisp texture or develop an unpleasant taste over time, especially if exposed to moisture or heat. Keep it sealed and follow the date and storage directions printed on the package.
Kent Sesame Candy is hard and crunchy because its cooked sugar coating cools into a brittle solid around the sesame. That texture is intentional, but it can be uncomfortable to bite if you have sensitive teeth.
Kent Sesame Candy is best treated as an occasional sweet rather than an everyday snack. It is sugar-based, and the sesame does not make it nutritionally equivalent to a balanced snack such as fruit with a protein-rich food.
Yes, Kent Sesame Candy can raise blood sugar because it is made mainly with sugar. People managing diabetes should account for it in their eating plan and ask their healthcare professional how it fits their individual needs.
Yes, crushed Kent Sesame Candy can add a crunchy sesame-sugar topping to ice cream, yogurt, or baked desserts. Add it just before serving so moisture from the dessert does not soften the brittle texture.
Yes, you can make a similar sesame candy at home by mixing sesame seeds into cooked sugar and spreading the mixture to cool and harden. Hot sugar can cause severe burns, so handle it carefully and keep children away.

Kent Sesame Candy is a crunchy sweet made with sesame seeds held together by a sugar-based mixture. It is a packaged take on sesame brittle, a style of sweet found in many food traditions, including Turkey’s.
Enjoy it as a small treat on its own or alongside tea or coffee; its toasted sesame flavour and crisp bite make it easy to share, though it can be quite sweet. Nutritionally, it is mostly a sugar-based confection rather than a filling snack, with 430 calories per 100 g. A piece is a simple way to keep the portion modest, and it pairs well with an unsweetened drink.
