Product Details
Quantity in 1 Full Container Load (FCL) - 2-3 MT (20-Ft), 4-6 MT (40-Ft)
Description- Grade 6 foxnuts are large, premium “jumbo” makhana in the 20–22 mm bracket (comparable to 6 Suta grades), offering exceptional visual impact and mouthfeel for luxury snack, gifting and high‑end retail channels. Their large, uniformly spherical pops showcase high expansion ratio and whiteness, which is why top export‑oriented processors highlight 6+ Suta as their flagship grade for USA, EU and GCC markets.
Despite their indulgent appearance, jumbo foxnuts retain the same low‑fat, high‑fibre, moderate‑protein nutrition profile as other grades – around 347 kcal, ~9.7 g protein and ~14.5 g fibre per 100 g with a very low fat load of ~0.1–1.9 g. Combined with antioxidants such as kaempferol, a low glycaemic index and absence of gluten or common allergens, Grade 6 makhana is ideal for premium “better‑for‑you” snacks, clean‑label products and high‑margin private‑label lines.
