Monkey Nuts (20 x 1kg)

Monkey nuts are whole peanuts still in their shell, supplied in a bulk box for restaurants, takeaways, cafes, caterers and snack producers across the UK. Also known as peanuts in shell, they protect the kernel until you are ready to crack, shell and use it. That makes them a practical wholesale ingredient for kitchens that roast, season or grind peanuts to their own recipe, and for retailers who sell or re-pack in-shell nuts.

Key Features of Wholesale Monkey Nuts

• Bulk and Wholesale Supply: Supplied as a bulk pack for restaurants, takeaways, caterers, retailers and re-packers who get through peanuts quickly. Buying in bulk keeps stock steady between orders.
• Trade Pricing: A wholesale pack bought at trade price is more cost-effective than topping up with small retail bags. It suits high-volume sauce, snack and confectionery production.
• In-Shell Format: The shell keeps the kernel protected until you crack it. You can shell only what each service or batch needs, and the nuts also work as a sharing snack.
• Firm, Savoury Flavour: The peanut kernel has a firm bite and a rich, nutty taste. It carries salt, chilli, garlic, jaggery and caramel equally well.
• Flexible Preparation: Roast and season to your own recipe, or shell and grind for sauces, pastes and sweets. Your commercial kitchen controls the roast level, seasoning and final cut.
• Storage and Handling: Keep the bulk pack in a cool, dry place away from strong odours, and reseal after opening. Peanuts are a major allergen, so store and shell them away from allergen-free prep areas.
