Optional Color & Defect Cashew Grades
In addition to standard grading, cashew kernels may also be classified based on color and defects, which helps determine their best use in industrial or value-driven applications. These grades are fully edible but may not meet visual or shape standards required for premium packaging.
Available Classifications:
Scorched (S):
Cashew kernels that appear slightly brown due to higher roasting temperatures — still flavorful and nutritious.Dessert (D):
Kernels with visible defects such as spots, shriveling, or discoloration. Used in low-cost food processing where appearance is secondary.Second Quality:
Lower-grade kernels typically used for oil extraction, animal feed, or non-edible industrial purposes.
These grades offer a cost-effective solution for manufacturers, bakeries, and industries looking to maximize value while maintaining core nutritional benefits.
