Pecan
Pecans, an elegant, buttery nut with a rich history and a growing presence in premium food markets. Loved for their soft texture and naturally sweet flavour, pecans are a favourite in baked goods, snacks, and plant-based innovations. Whether you are looking for whole pecans for retail or processed forms for industry, Aldebaran supplies the quality you can rely on.
Origins
Our pecans are sourced from trusted growers in leading production regions, including the United States (Georgia, Texas), Mexico, Argentina and South Africa. Each origin offers unique qualities in terms of nut size, flavour intensity, and oil content. Through close cooperation with our partners, we ensure reliable year-round availability, full traceability, and a consistent high standard of product quality.
Variaties & Counts
We offer pecans in a wide variety of sizes and styles to suit all applications:
- Whole halves (Fancy Junior Mammoth, Fancy Mammoth)
- Pieces (Large, Medium, Small, Midget)
- Granules or meal for baking or inclusion in mixes
- Roasted or raw, depending on your requirements
Our pecans are available in both natural and lightly processed forms, always sorted and cleaned to industry standards.
Markets
Aldebaran pecans are suitable for various markets and uses:
- Edible market: A classic in bakery (e.g. pecan pie), granola, snack mixes, and chocolate products.
- Organic market: We offer certified organic pecans upon request.
- Health & nutrition: Rich in healthy fats, antioxidants, and fibre, pecans are increasingly used in functional food products.
Due to their delicate structure and flavour, pecans are less common in pet food applications.
Packaging
To protect the quality of these soft, oil-rich nuts, we offer appropriate and flexible packaging options:
- Vacuum-packed bags
- Cartons (e.g. 13.6kg / 30lbs standard industry size)
- Bulk packaging and pallets
Private label, custom blends, or special handling requirements? We’re happy to think along with you.
Processed
Our pecans can be supplied in several processed forms:
- Raw (natural)
- Roasted (plain or salted)
- Chopped, granulated or ground
- Caramelised or coated (on request)
All processing is done under controlled conditions to retain freshness and flavour, while meeting strict food safety requirements.
Quality
Pecans are a delicate product, and we take great care in ensuring only the best reach our customers. Our suppliers adhere to USDA standards and international food safety protocols (e.g. BRC, HACCP). Each batch is checked for moisture content, shell residue, and visual quality. Organic lots are certified by accredited bodies. From orchard to packaging, quality and care come first.
