'''Karadantu''' ({{lang-kn|ಕರದಂಟು}}) is a sweet delicacy unique to the state of [[Karnataka]], [[India]]. ''Karadantu'' means ''fried-edible gum'' in the local language, [[Kannada]]. It is made of edible gum mixed with dry fruits and has a chewy texture. The other ingredients used in its preparation are fried [[bengal gram]] flour, [[jaggery]] and seeds of marking-nut (''[[Semecarpus anacardium]]'') tree. [[Gokak]] is very famous for karadant. [[Amingad]] town in [[Bagalkot district]] [[Karnataka]] is also famous for the ''karadantu'' produced in its sweet shops. The tastes of the 2 varieties of kardant are almost similar but never same courtesy the ingredients used.

==History==
The origin of Karadantu making is traced back to pre-independence era when ''Dundappa Kalaburgi'' from [[Gokak]] used to sell sweet in local market. Earlier, the sweet was made of gram flour, jaggery and groundnut and the delicacies were popular in the local population. When a customer suggested ''Dundappa Kalaburgi'' that the sweet could be still made tastier by adding jaggery, then it became the framework to prepare Karadantu.<ref name=deccanherald>{{cite news |title=Karadantu of Gokak |url=https://www.deccanherald.com/content/535965/karadantu-gokak.html |accessdate=22 August 2018 |work=Deccan Herald |date=22 March 2016 |language=en}}</ref>
