Product Description
Broken Cashews – Small Pieces
Broken cashews are small pieces of cashew nut, used for cooking, baking and blending where the nuts do not need to stay whole. They are also sold as cashew pieces. They taste like whole cashews, with a mild, slightly sweet and creamy flavour.
The small size is the main point. Small pieces blend, grind and soften faster than whole nuts, so they suit sauces, pastes and bakes.
Broken Cashews vs Whole Cashews
Broken cashews are the same nut as whole cashews, just in smaller, uneven pieces.
Nuts break into pieces during processing, and these are sorted out and sold separately. They look less neat than whole or halved cashews. That makes them a sensible choice when the nuts will be chopped, ground, blended or mixed into a dish anyway.
Ways to Use Small Cashew Pieces
Small cashew pieces work best in dishes where they melt into the food or add a little crunch.
- Blend into a smooth paste to thicken korma, shahi paneer or butter chicken sauce
- Make cashew cream for soups, pasta sauces and dairy-free style dressings
- Stir into pulao, biryani or fried rice
- Cook in kheer, halwa or burfi
- Mix into cookies, flapjacks, banana bread and granola
- Add to stir-fries, such as cashew chicken
- Scatter over salads, noodles or porridge
- Add to a homemade trail mix
Tips for Cooking with Broken Cashews
Soaking broken cashews in hot water makes them easier to blend into a smooth cream or paste.
Cover them with just-boiled water for 15 to 30 minutes, then drain and blend with fresh water. Small pieces soften quickly, so they need less time than whole nuts.
For a deeper, toasted flavour, stir the pieces in a dry pan over a medium heat for a few minutes. Small pieces colour fast, so keep them moving and take them off the heat as soon as they turn golden.
Broken Cashews FAQ
Are broken cashews the same as whole cashews?
Yes, they are the same nut, only in smaller pieces. The taste is the same, but the shape is less even. This makes them better for blending and baking than for serving as a snack on a platter.
Can I use broken cashews to make cashew butter or cream?
Yes, small pieces are well suited to both. They break down quickly in a blender or food processor. Soaking them first helps for a smoother cream.
Do I need to chop broken cashews before baking?
Usually not, because they are already small. Stir them straight into cookie dough, flapjacks or cake batter. If you want finer crumbs, give them a quick pulse in a processor.
Add broken cashews to your basket, ready for your next korma, batch of cashew cream or tray of flapjacks.

We take great care when preparing and securely packing every order; however, during transportation, parcels may be handled by several parties, including the courier, and despite our best efforts, minor cosmetic damage such as dents, marks, scuffs or damage to external packaging may occasionally occur. Minor cosmetic damage that does not affect the product’s safety, quality or intended use will not normally be considered a product defect. This is particularly applicable to products supplied in cans, tins, plastic containers, boxes or similar packaging. If you receive a product that is broken, leaking, materially damaged, unsafe, unusable or otherwise not as described, please contact us within 24 Hours of delivery by email or telephone and provide your order number, details of the issue and clear photographs of the damaged product and packaging. We may require further information or evidence to investigate the matter and, where necessary, may take up to 14 days to complete our investigation. Where damage appears to have occurred during delivery, we may need to raise a claim with the courier, and you may be required to complete and return any Damage on Receipt (DOR) form or other documentation requested by the courier before the claim can be processed. Some products we sell are price-marked or display a manufacturer’s recommended or printed retail price. Please note that our online selling prices may differ from the price printed on the product because online orders involve additional costs such as picking, packing, packaging materials, warehouse handling, payment processing, website administration and delivery-related costs. You may therefore receive a product displaying a printed or recommended retail price that is lower than the price you paid online. The price you agree to pay is the online selling price displayed on our website at the time you place your order, and the presence of a lower printed or recommended retail price on the packaging does not, by itself, mean that the online purchase price was incorrect. Product images displayed on our website are for illustration and presentation purposes only. Actual product packaging, branding, design, colour, size, shape or appearance may vary depending on availability, manufacturer, batch or packaging updates. Such variations do not necessarily indicate that the product supplied is different from the product ordered, provided that the product itself corresponds to the description and specifications stated on the website. We ask customers to check their order and products as soon as reasonably possible after delivery and contact us promptly if there is any material damage, fault, incorrect item or issue with the goods.
