Cashews Roasted & Salted – Robust Crunch, Natural Nourishment

Elysian Orchards Cashews – Roasted & Salted (With Skin)

Elysian Orchards Cashews – Roasted & Salted are crafted for those who enjoy bold flavour with balanced nutrition.

These premium whole cashews are roasted with their natural skin intact — preserving fibre and plant compounds that support digestion and metabolic wellness. The skin also adds a slightly deeper, earthy note to the flavour profile.

Gently roasted to enhance their natural nuttiness and finished with a light touch of salt, they deliver a hearty crunch without overpowering the true character of the cashew.

If you enjoy your snacks flavourful yet wholesome, this is the perfect everyday indulgence.

About the Crop

The cashew tree (Anacardium occidentale) is a tropical evergreen plant capable of reaching up to 14 meters in height, while commercially cultivated dwarf varieties grow to approximately 6 meters and are preferred for earlier fruiting and higher yield cycles.

Cashew nuts develop beneath a fleshy fruit known as the cashew apple. After harvesting, the nut is separated, dried, and shelled. Depending on the product style, the thin brown skin (testa) may either be removed or retained.

In this variant, the skin is preserved during roasting to maintain structural integrity and enhance fibre presence.

Grading occurs after shelling and drying, based on kernel size, integrity, colour, and moisture content.

 Nutritional Information (Per 100g)

Nutritional Significance

Cashews primarily contain monounsaturated fats, particularly Oleic Acid, which supports cardiovascular health and improved cholesterol balance.

They provide plant-based protein, contributing to muscle maintenance and sustained energy.

The retention of natural skin increases dietary fibre, supporting digestive health and improved satiety.

Cashews contain significant amounts of magnesium, assisting nerve transmission and muscle relaxation.

They supply copper, supporting collagen formation and skin elasticity.

They provide B-complex vitamins, including Thiamine and Vitamin B6, contributing to energy metabolism and nervous system function.

Additionally, they contain essential minerals such as phosphorus, iron, manganese, and zinc, supporting bone health, oxygen transport, and immune response.

The roasting process enhances flavour while preserving core nutritional integrity when done under controlled conditions.

Origin Advantage — What Makes These Cashews Special?

Cashews are enjoyed worldwide, but the difference lies in origin and grading.

- Sourced from Vietnam – W150 Grade, known for producing large, export-quality cashews

- W150 indicates an even larger kernel size than W180, making these extra-large and visually premium.

- Vietnam is one of the world’s leading exporters of high-grade cashews, recognised for consistent quality and bold crunch.

- Carefully sorted whole kernels ensure uniform size and texture — not a mixed-grade assortment.

The result? Larger, crunchier, more satisfying cashews that hold their structure beautifully even after roasting.

 Packaging

Our philosophy is simple: buy in small quantities and consume fresh produce.

We use triple-layer laminate vacuum packaging technology to ensure freshness, protection during transit, and preservation of taste and texture.

The Three Layers:

- Inner Layer (Product Contact): Food-safe Polyethylene (PE) or Cast Polypropylene (CPP) ensures hermetic sealing.

- Middle Barrier Layer: Aluminum foil / Metallized PET / EVOH protects against oxygen, moisture, light, and aroma loss.

- Outer Layer (Protection & Print): BOPP or Polyester (PET) provides durability, puncture resistance, and premium print surface.

This structure ensures extended shelf stability without compromising natural quality.

 GRADES

Quality classification for cashews varies depending on international trade standards. Below is a commonly accepted grading system (±10% variation due to moisture).
