In professional confectionery, modern chocolate manufacturing, and industrial food production, the consistency of raw materials is the defining factor for quality. Chitgar Nuts’ Iranian Hazelnut Granules are produced through precision milling and size-grading of hand-selected, premium Iranian hazelnuts. Known for their higher natural fat content and superior crunch, our hazelnuts impart a deeper, more robust flavor profile compared to generic market alternatives.
Our production process includes thorough blanching to remove the skin, followed by advanced vibration-sieving to eliminate fines, dust, and debris. This ensures that your production lines remain clean, and your final products—whether baked or coated—remain perfectly consistent without the risk of burnt particles.Why Choose Chitgar Nuts’ Iranian Hazelnut Granules?
Hazelnut orchards in the mountainous regions of Eshkevarat (Gilan) and Alamut (Qazvin) are renowned for their cool climate and rich soil, producing dense, oil-rich kernels. When processed into granules, they release an intense natural aroma upon baking or when combined with chocolate and cream.
Key quality attributes of Chitgar Nuts’ hazelnut granules:
– Uniform Calibration: Our granules are graded based on precise mesh sizes to ensure perfect distribution in pastes, creams, or chocolate coatings.– Zero-Dust & Waste-Free: Our multi-stage sieving process guarantees that dust tolerance is kept to an absolute minimum (under 0.5%), meaning you get maximum value for your investment.– Chemical-Free Blanching: We utilize natural methods to remove the thin brown skin, ensuring the granules maintain a bright yellow color and a creamy, mild flavor.– Moisture Control: Strictly controlled drying processes prevent oxidation of fatty acids, ensuring the granules remain crunchy and fresh for months.
