Amber halves are walnut kernels in whole halves with a brown to dark brown colour, graded as Amber in the trade. The taste stays mild, but the look is not meant for display. They make sense when the walnuts are ground, baked or mixed into a dark dough where colour is hidden.

Frequently asked questions
Are Amber kernels old?
Not necessarily. Kernel colour depends on the variety, the season’s weather and drying. Amber halves are sold as a separate colour grade.
Do they taste different from Light kernels?
The taste is mild, a little stronger than paler kernels. In sweets with chocolate or spices the difference goes unnoticed.
Do you have Amber quarters?
Ask our sales team which darker grades are available at the time of your order.
