Technical Specifications

Premium hulled sesame seeds with 50–55% oil content. Sourced from Ethiopia, Sudan, and India. Each batch tested for aflatoxin, pesticide residues, and heavy metals. Roasting profile optimized for maximum flavor development.

Traditional sugar-based saponaria root syrup for authentic texture. Temperature-controlled cooking to precise crystallization point. No artificial foaming agents. Result: light, flaky texture that crumbles perfectly.
