Storage

Keep cartons at 5 to 10 °C and up to 65% relative humidity, away from light and strong smelling goods. Heat darkens the kernels and turns them rancid, so avoid unrefrigerated warehouses in summer.

Frequently asked questions

How do quarters differ from halves?

Halves are whole half kernels, while quarters are large pieces. When the walnuts are chopped or ground, quarters give the same result at a lower price.

Are they suitable for baklava?

Yes. Greek Light quarters have a sweet taste and pale colour, which is why they are widely used in baklava and walnut cake.

Do you have imported quarters?

Yes, our imported Light quarters in 10 or 11 kg cartons, usually at a lower price.
