About the activated almonds
Our almonds are organic and soaked in salted water for several hours, then dried. The soaking gives a softer bite and a milder flavour, because the salt takes the edge off the bitterness in the skins. They have 23g of protein per 100g and are good on their own, in granola, or chopped into baking.
Contains almonds (tree nuts).
