After a night of taste-testing tons of candy, I was ready for something unique and delicious. I found what I was looking for in a sample box sent to me by the people at Halvah. The Joyva Sesame Crunch bar has a wonderfully distinctive flavor and texture. The bar is thin and flat and made up of four simple ingredients: sesame seeds, sugar, corn syrup, and honey. It’s Awesomely Addictive.
My favorite candies are usually coated, filled, or mixed with chocolate, but the Sesame Crunch bar is in a league of its own. It’s slightly sticky, crispy, and satisfying, and naturally honey-sweet. If you buy the bars from halvah.biz, they’re only fifty cents per bar. The waistline expansion factor isn’t bad either—a 1.125oz bar has 190 calories, and according to the manufacturer, the candy’s kosher.
I haven’t looked for the Sesame Crunch bars in stores because I still have one left from my sample stash, but I’ll be on the hunt during my planned Labor Day Weekend candy shopping spree. I gotta have some more!
Those sesame-honey candies are common within the latin american community as well, and are called ajonjoli. (The “j” is pronounced like an “h”, so you would say it “ahonholi”) That may help as far as getting your hands on some. I know a lot of local bakeries in Miami, where I live, make them. Good luck!
I gotta agree..addictive! It has a taste that you just cannot get anywhere else.
Not the same brand, but I have gotten bars of em from GNC and bags of em from BJs and Sams clubs.
HTH someone.
I love these! I worked at Fresh Market til recently, in Bulk and Coffee/Candy. We had access to pound after pound of these, the best candy ever. I miss that job.
TFM sells the mini ones, which are about an inch long. I have never seen the full size ones, thanks for the tip.
I am addicted to the mini sesame crunch..they are a little hard to find in this area, but now I know I can purchase them on here and definately at a better price..All my friends said YUCK, when I wanted them to taste one and now they are all hooked on them as well..
Where is this sesame crunch made? Is it made in the USA?
I found the mini ones in Whole foods in the bulk section.. awesome candy
