Blanched almonds show how delicious pure elegance can taste. As a delicious snack, they are delicate, aromatic and have a velvety-soft texture. Removing the thin, slightly bitter skin makes their flavor even milder and gives them a delicate, slightly sweet note that goes perfectly with desserts, pastries or savory dishes. No wonder they can be found in countless recipes. Their taste is subtle and yet so wonderfully distinctive.

But blanched almonds not only have a lot to offer in culinary terms. As a natural source of magnesium, experts say they are able to support important bodily functions, while the vitamin E they contain is known as a valuable antioxidant. This makes them not only a tasty addition, but also a valuable part of a balanced diet. The protein content of blanched almonds is also more than impressive.

Their botanical origin is also interesting: as members of the rose family, they are closely related to apples and apricots. A family that is known for its fine, fruity character. Whether in marzipan, as almond paste or roasted as a crunchy topping - we can only warmly recommend buying blanched almonds. They are guaranteed to make your dishes that little bit more sophisticated.
