What it is

Organic Roasted Peeled Almond Paste is a food ingredient made from almonds that have been roasted, peeled, and then ground into a smooth paste. This process enhances their flavor and creates a creamy texture. It is a concentrated form of almonds, retaining their natural oils and nutrients.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add almond paste to products primarily for its rich flavor, smooth texture, and nutritional value. It serves as a base for nut spreads, fillings, and baked goods. It is commonly found in nut and seed butters, and various dessert items.

Health notes

Almond paste is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA as a food ingredient. It is a good source of healthy fats, protein, and fiber. No specific JECFA or EFSA evaluation exists for almond paste as a food additive, as it is considered a whole food product. There are no notable controversies regarding almond paste itself, beyond the allergenicity of almonds.

Allergen info

Almonds are tree nuts, which are one of the nine major food allergens identified by the FDA. Products containing almond paste must declare this allergen on their labels.
