Please refer to our Storage Tips to find out how you can store our products in such a way as to prolong their freshness and lifespan. As for the expiry date, it is only a guideline and how the products are stored will play an important role as to how safe they are for consumption after that date. We suggest a simple sight, smell, and if necessary, taste test to determine if the goods are still edible or not.

12. What’s the benefit of slow roasting nuts?
Besides making the nuts tastier and easier to digest compared to raw nuts, slow roasting also preserves as much natural goodness as possible without the side effects common to over roasted nuts (diminished nutritional value, inferior taste & texture, easily rancid oil).

We source low sugar or unsweetened options.

14. Are your products safe for child consumption?
We would advise our customers to exercise discretion as nuts in particular may be a choking hazard or cause allergic reactions depending on the individual.
