A practical, procurement-ready overview of hazelnut paste performance on high-shear mixers — including recommended formats, grind & consistency targets, dispersion and pumpability considerations, oxidation and temperature control, and export packaging approaches.
High-shear mixing is used when manufacturers need fast dispersion, consistent texture, and repeatable results across large batches. Hazelnut paste (a fat-rich ingredient with natural solids) can perform extremely well on these lines — provided the specification matches your equipment and process window.
Typical use cases include confectionery bases, fillings, spreads, sauces, bakery creams, dairy and frozen dessert components, and compound systems where hazelnut contributes both flavor and structure. The main drivers in high-shear environments are dispersion reliability (no stubborn lumps), predictable flow (pumpability and dosing), and stability (minimizing separation and protecting aroma during processing).
Typical starting points for pilots and scale-up. We align roast style, grind and packaging to your batch size and mixing method.
If your process is sensitive to color, we can support both roasted flavor profiles and lighter options.
Key variables that impact throughput, mixing efficiency, texture and shelf stability on high-shear lines.
Industrial lines benefit from packaging that protects flavor while supporting fast, clean handling at scale.
For paste: stable storage temperature and minimizing oxygen exposure help maintain aroma and reduce separation during long transit.

A good procurement specification ties together process conditions (shear, temperature, batch time), equipment needs (pumps, meters, filters), and product targets (texture, flavor, shelf stability).
Share the practical details that influence paste behavior. Small differences can change flow and dispersion.
The goal is smooth texture and predictable flow — without forcing excessive shear time.
High-shear processing can stress fat systems; packaging and handling protect flavor and shelf-life.
If you share your application (spread, filling, dairy base, sauce), line layout and target texture, we can propose a starter specification designed for your mixing conditions.
Below is a practical checklist used by procurement and QA teams for industrial mixing lines. We align each item to your destination market, customer requirements and processing method (batch vs inline, paste vs meal/flour).
| Parameter | How we align it |
|---|---|
| Roast profile / color | Defined roast style aligned to your flavor target (and optional lighter color approaches) |
| Grind / particle behavior | Practical grind targets for smooth texture and reduced equipment interruption |
| Consistency / flow | Aligned to pumping, metering and dosing; guidance for re-homogenization before use |
| Oil separation tendency | Managed through consistent processing and storage/handling guidance |
| Moisture | Controlled to your target range (important for stability and dry ingredient handling) |
| Micro profile | Aligned to customer specifications and destination requirements |
| Aflatoxin | Managed through risk-based sourcing and partner controls |
| Defect sorting | Screened and optically sorted where required |
| Allergen documentation | Tree nut allergen controls and traceability documentation for your program |
| Packaging | Pails/drums with liners for paste; protected bags for meal/flour; export cartons as required |
Final values depend on product form and customer requirements. We share lot documentation with each shipment.
Most customers start with hazelnut paste / puree because it disperses predictably and supports repeatable texture. Meal / flour is used when a dry addition is preferred (for solids control and storage handling), and hazelnut oil may be used to standardize fat content or tune flow depending on the formulation.
Yes. We can supply calibrated kernels and controlled cuts (sliced, diced or chopped) and align tolerance bands to your process. For high-shear mixing environments, grind and dust control are usually the most important levers to protect throughput and product consistency.
Yes. We structure annual and multi-shipment programs with consistent specifications, batch documentation and forecast-based planning — supporting stable performance across production cycles and seasonal volume changes.
Send your application, batch size, mixing method (batch vs inline), working temperature window, and destination. We will propose suitable formats (paste / meal / oil), packaging, and a supply plan aligned to your high-shear line.
