PRODUCT CERTIFICATION (1)
Compact by Design (Certified by Amazon) products remove excess air and water, which reduces the carbon footprint of shipping and packaging.
Compact by Design is a new sustainability certification created by Amazon to identify products that, while they may not always look very different, have a more efficient design. With the removal of excess air and water, products require less packaging and become more efficient to ship. At scale, these small differences in product size and weight lead to significant carbon emission reductions.

Customer Questions & Answers
Customer reviews
Makes great nut milk! Only need to soak for a few hours and they are ready. The milk stays fresh for at least four or five days but it is all used by then so I’m not sure how much longer it might be good. Not sure why the one reviewer had such issues except it sounds like they totally oversoaked the almonds. They had to be mush after 18 hours and probably going rancid. The longest I have soaked these is five hours. Great for snacking too. I got several batches of milk out of the package as well as enjoying a few snacks. I am just purchasing my second order as I haven’t been able to find blanched almonds in the stores around me. (I use a SoyaJoy G5 to make my milks. Love it!)

These are great for making your own frangipane and end up being less expensive than using almond paste. Here's my recipe that makes enough for 40 small apple or cherry galettes. You can also freeze this for several weeks if needed. I add a little twist by using a little toasted coconut ground in with the almonds. It's super tasty:
36 grams toasted coconut, 60 grams of the almonds, 15 grams all purpose flour, 1/8 Tsp. salt, 50 grams sugar, 83 grams unsalted butter at room temp., 2 small eggs at room temp., 3/4 Tsp vanilla.
In small food processor grind first 5 ingredients, then add butter and eggs and puree until smooth. It will still be a little grainy with the coconut and almonds, but makes a wonderful paste to spread under the fruit.
