When it comes to buying cashews in bulk for sweets, bakery products, or snack manufacturing, not every recipe requires whole, flawless kernels. That’s where broken cashew grades like JH (Jumbo Halves) come in. Offering the same rich flavor as whole cashews at a fraction of the cost, JH kernels are the go-to choice for businesses focused on efficiency, cost management, and consistent output.
For B2B buyers across India — from large sweet makers to snack processors — JH Cashew Kernels deliver the quality you need without overpaying for appearance you don’t.
What Are JH Cashew Kernels?
JH (Jumbo Halves) (2 piece cashew)are large, clean halves of cashew kernels that naturally break during the cutting and processing stage. While they aren’t whole, these halves retain:
- The same creamy texture and taste of premium whole cashews
- A clean, white or slightly ivory appearance
- Consistency in size — ideal for uniform mixing and roasting
In bulk cashew production, JH sits between premium whole grades and smaller broken grades like LWP or SWP. For sweets, snacks, and processed foods, they offer the perfect balance between quality and cost.
Why JH Grades Are Popular for B2B Buyers
- Same taste, lower cost: You get the authentic rich flavor of cashews while saving on ingredient costs.
- Easier to process: Halves mix, grind, and roast faster than whole kernels.
- No compromise on performance: Perfect for recipes where cashew shape doesn’t impact the final product.
Key Uses of JH Cashew Kernels in India
JH broken cashews are trusted by a wide range of industries, particularly in India’s growing sweet and snack sector:
1. Mithai & Sweet Manufacturing
JH is commonly used in high-volume sweets such as:
- Kaju Katli
- Kaju Barfi
- Halwa
- Ladoo fillings
The halves blend smoothly and release the right oil content for creamy textures — a top requirement for mithai producers.
2. Commercial Bakeries
In baked goods, JH cashews perform exceptionally well in:
- Cookies and biscuits
- Pastry fillings
- Cashew-topped cakes
- Muffins
- Brownies and desserts
Their larger size means better bite value in each product while keeping material costs controlled.
3. Snack & Namkeen Brands
Snack manufacturers use JH in:
- Masala cashew mixes
- Coated and flavored snack lines
- Trail mixes and granola
Since these cashews roast evenly, snack brands can maintain product consistency batch after batch.
4. Nut Butter & Paste Producers
For those making nut butters, spreads, or paste-based fillings, JH cashews offer the perfect oil-to-yield ratio for smooth processing.
5. Sweet Presentation
These 2 piece cashews (JH grade) are ideal for premium sweet presentations where large, visible cashew pieces enhance the appeal of barfi or decorated halwa.
6. Cashew for Biryani
In the hotel and catering industry, JH cashews are also popular as cashew for biryani, offering rich flavor and a premium touch to festive rice dishes.
JH vs Other Broken Cashew Grades: How to Choose the Premium Broken Grades
When you’re buying broken cashews in bulk, choosing the right grade matters. Here’s a brief comparison to help you decide:
Grade | Number of Pieces per Cashew | Size | Best Use | Pricing |
JH (Jumbo Halves) | 2 pieces (2 piece cashew) | Large halves | Mithai, bakery, snacks | Mid-range |
JK | 3 pieces (3 piece cashew) | Large Pieces | Mithai fillings, sweets, bakery products | More Economical |
LWP (Large White Pieces) | 4+ pieces (4 piece cashew) | Medium pieces | Halwa, sweets | Economical |
SWP (Small White Pieces) | 8 Pieces( 8 piece cashew) | Small bits | Energy bars, mixing | Lowest |
Choose JH if your products need chunky, visible cashew pieces that add texture and value to the end product.
Why B2B Buyers Prefer JH Cashews Over Whole Cashews
For many buyers, whole cashews are unnecessary when taste is the priority over appearance. JH kernels are a smart financial choice, especially for:
- Mithai shops running high-volume batches
- Bakeries scaling production for festivals and retail
- Snack brands creating flavored, coated cashew lines
With rising costs in raw ingredients, choosing JH helps protect margins without affecting quality.
How JH Cashew Kernels Are Sorted
All broken cashew grades undergo careful sorting during processing. Here’s how JH kernels are separated:
- Shelling & Drying: Cashews are steam-boiled and shelled.
- Splitting: Naturally broken during the cutting process.
- Grading: Larger, clean halves are sorted out as JH.
- Quality Check: Final inspection to ensure consistency in size and removal of defective pieces.
- Packing: Packed bulk in food-grade containers, ready for B2B buyers.
