Roasted nibbed hazelnuts

Hazelnuts are the edible nuts of the hazel tree, Corylus avellana. Roasted nibbed hazelnuts are whole hazelnuts that have been roasted to enhance their flavour and aroma, then broken into small pieces or 'nibs'. This process makes them easier to incorporate into various food products.

Manufacturers use roasted nibbed hazelnuts to add a rich, nutty flavour and a crunchy texture to foods. They are commonly found in breakfast cereals, chocolate confectionery, baked goods like biscuits and cakes, and as a topping for desserts.

Hazelnuts are a natural food ingredient, not a food additive, and are not listed on the Register of Food Additive Authorisations. They are a source of healthy fats, protein, fibre, vitamins, and minerals. While generally considered nutritious, some individuals may have allergies to tree nuts. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming hazelnuts at typical dietary levels.
