Macadamia
Known as one of the most luxurious and nutritious nuts in the world, macadamias offer a rich, buttery flavour and a satisfying crunch. Whether used in high-end confectionery, gourmet snacks, or plant-based dairy alternatives, our macadamias bring indulgence and quality to every application.
Origins
We source our macadamias from trusted producers in key growing regions such as South Africa, Kenya, Australia, and Guatemala. Each origin offers slightly different profiles in taste, oil content, and size. By working closely with growers and processors on the ground, we ensure traceability, consistency, and long-term availability, season after season.
Variaties & Counts
Macadamias are available in a wide range of styles and sizes to suit different markets and applications:
- Whole kernels: Style 0 (super premium) to Style 4
- Halves and pieces: Style 5 -8
- Chips: Style 6 to Style 8
Whether you’re looking for large, intact nuts for retail packaging or smaller chips for bakery or spreads, we deliver the right style at the right specification.
