Grades, sizes & varieties
Compare the product-specific sizes, processing options and quality distinctions in the commercial specification guide below.
These product references provide a starting point. The supplier’s current specification and the agreed contract determine the offered lot.
UNDERSTANDING CASHEWS
Know the product.
Choose for your application.
Product & processing
Cashews develop on a tropical evergreen tree originally associated with Brazil. Commercial kernels are removed from their protective shells and sorted by colour, condition and size. For an importer or processor, a whole-kernel size code is only one part of the purchase specification.
Food industry applications
Whole kernels suit snack packs and chocolate coating. Butts, splits and graded pieces can suit bakery, cereal, confectionery and paste manufacture. Agree the form and colour needed after processing, including any roasting test for your application.
| Specification | Details |
|---|---|
| Whole sizes: 210 / 240 / 320 / 450 | AFI count ranges per pound: 180–210 / 220–240 / 300–320 / 400–450 respectively. Lower counts indicate larger kernels. |
| Quality | Fancy, Scorched, Special Scorched, Lightly Blemished and Dessert Blemished describe different colour/condition categories. |
| Butts / splits | Butts are crosswise breaks; splits are lengthwise halves. They are distinct from whole kernels. |
| Large / small pieces | Specify the sieve range and permitted smaller material, not only an abbreviation. |
| Packing | 50 lb cartons are a catalogue reference; confirm inner-pack atmosphere, seal and net weight. |
Formats and pack sizes are reference options, subject to supplier confirmation. Agree the specification, tolerances and documentation for the offered lot before purchase.
Grade reference: AFI cashew kernel specifications ↗
Is W320 enough to compare two offers?
It identifies a whole-kernel size designation, but does not describe every tolerance. Compare colour/quality, broken percentage, moisture, defects, roast performance and packing on the same specification basis.
