Louhinnuttalit

Louhinnuttalit, also known as Louhi's nuts, are a type of confectionery originating from Finland. They are typically made from a mixture of sugar, corn syrup, and nuts, which are then rolled into small, round shapes and coated in a thin layer of chocolate. The name "Louhinnuttalit" is derived from the Finnish word "Louhi," a character from the Finnish national epic, the Kalevala, who is known for her magical powers and her love for nuts.

The confectionery was first produced in the 1950s by the Finnish company Fazer, and it quickly became a popular treat among Finns. Louhinnuttalit are often enjoyed as a snack or a dessert, and they are also a popular gift item during the holiday season. The confectionery is available in various flavors, including the original nut flavor, as well as other flavors such as caramel and raspberry.

Louhinnuttalit are typically sold in small, plastic-wrapped packets, and they are often displayed in colorful, festive packaging. The confectionery is also available in larger, gift-sized boxes, which are popular for giving as presents. Louhinnuttalit are a beloved treat in Finland, and they are often associated with the country's rich culinary tradition and its unique cultural heritage.
