'''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.<br />
