Aunt Sally's Pralines - St. Charles Avenue

Aunt Sally’s was founded in the French Quarter in 1935, and our flagship store has been in the French Market ever since, right next door to Café du Monde.

In 2014 we restored a historic building on St. Charles Ave, and where our company headquarters and a second retail store are now located. The core of our business is the traditional New Orleans praline, made in several flavors and varieties with the finest fresh ingredients including Louisiana pecans and cane sugar. Pralines are cooked over open flame in large, round, copper pots, and then dipped by hand to cool on marble slabs.

You can watch our highly skilled cooks and taste fresh samples every day, at both of our stores; it is truly a piece of New Orleans’ culinary history in action!

In addition to the best pralines in town, our stores have a broad selection of gifts, souvenirs, and local food products, and we have a fascinating selection of books of regional interest for both adults and children.
