Hazelnuts
Hazelnuts
Hazelnuts are the round, sweet nuts of the hazel tree (Corylus avellana), a deciduous plant native to Europe and Asia. These versatile nuts are a key ingredient in the food industry, used in chocolates, spreads, baked goods, and as a topping for salads and desserts. Hazelnuts are highly nutritious, offering healthy fats, protein, vitamin E, and dietary fiber, which support heart health, skin vitality, and digestive wellness. Their rich, creamy flavor and crunchy texture make them an indispensable component in both gourmet and everyday food products.
Origin
We source hazelnuts from Turkey and Italy, two regions renowned for their superior hazelnut production. Turkey, the world’s largest producer of hazelnuts, provides consistent quality and a reliable supply due to its vast hazel orchards and advanced processing techniques. Italy, known for its traditional cultivation methods, offers hazelnuts with a distinctive flavor and premium quality, particularly from the Piedmont region. By sourcing from these countries, we ensure access to the highest-quality hazelnuts, meeting the demands of global markets for excellence in taste and consistency.
