Whenever anyone thinks of peanut sweets, they think of Paçoquita, much like when you think of Japanese-style peanuts, Mendorato comes to mind. These products have grown to represent the category, with national and international recognition that reflects our rigorous quality control and our desire to surprise our clients and consumers every single day!
