Cashew Nut Grades – Complete Guide

​

At Benker Brothers, we supply premium quality cashew nuts in all major commercial and export grades. Cashew grades are mainly classified based on size, color, and percentage of whole kernels or broken pieces. Larger and whiter kernels generally command higher value in the market.

​

We offer consistent grading standards suitable for wholesalers, retailers, sweet manufacturers, bakeries, and bulk buyers across India.

​

🌟 White Whole Grades (Premium Export Quality)

​

White Whole (W) grades are the highest quality whole cashew kernels. The number indicates how many kernels make up one pound (lb). Lower number = Bigger size.

• W180 (King of Cashews)
  Largest size, premium appearance, mostly used for export and luxury packaging.

• W210 (Jumbo Grade)
  Large and attractive kernels, ideal for premium retail packs.

• W240 (Attractive Large Size)
  Popular premium grade with good size and high demand.

• W320 (Most Popular Grade)
  Medium-large size, best-selling grade in India and globally. Perfect balance of size and price.

• W450 (Small Whole Grade)
  Smaller size, economical option for bulk buyers

​

🥜 Scorched Whole Grades (SW)

These are slightly darker due to longer drying process but equal in taste and quality.

• SW180 / SW210 / SW240 / SW320 / SW450
  Same sizing system as White Whole grades, but slightly brownish in color. Cost-effective alternative for many buyers.

​

✨ Dessert / Broken Grades

Broken grades are widely used in sweets, bakery products, namkeen, chocolates, and food processing industries.

• Butts (Large Pieces)
  Split naturally into two halves.

• Splits
  Clean split kernels, uniform pieces.

• Large White Pieces (LWP)
  Bigger broken pieces, good for premium sweets.

• Small White Pieces (SWP)
  Smaller pieces for mixing and processing.

• Baby Bits / Cashew Powder
  Very small broken pieces, ideal for gravies and paste.
