Premium W320 Cashews 🇮🇳

What does W240 grade mean for cashews?

W240 means 240 whole cashew kernels per pound (453g) — meaning bigger, heavier kernels. It is the second-largest standard international grade, a premium tier above the more common W320 (320 kernels/pound). W240 cashews are meatier, creamier and command a price premium — they are the grade hotels and Indian wedding caterers prefer.

Are these W240 cashews bleached or chemically whitened?

No. Our W240 cashews have a natural ivory-cream colour, which is the true appearance of a high-quality cashew kernel. If you see uniformly bright-white cashews elsewhere, they have usually been treated with hydrogen peroxide or sulphur to mask poor quality. Our cashews are only dry-roasted for shell removal, nothing more.

Where are these cashews grown and processed?

Our cashews come from the Konkan coast (Maharashtra and Goa) and Kollam region of Kerala — India's oldest cashew-growing belts. They are hand-shelled in small factories that we visit regularly, sorted by grade, vacuum-packed to prevent oxidation, and shipped to our Delhi facility for final FSSAI-certified packing.

How many cashews should I eat per day for weight management?

A daily serving of 15–18 cashews (about 28g) gives you approximately 155 calories, 5g protein, 1g fibre and a meaningful dose of magnesium, iron and zinc. Research shows cashews do not cause weight gain when eaten in this portion — the body absorbs only about 84% of the calories.

Can I use these cashews to make curry or cashew paste?

Yes, W240 cashews are ideal for making curry gravies, kaju katli, cashew cream and cashew paste. Soak 20–25 cashews in warm water for 2 hours, then blend with a little water to a smooth paste — it becomes the base for paneer butter masala, shahi paneer, and dairy-free cream.
