Frozen peeled chestnuts offer a natural sweet nutty flavor and smooth texture after cooking, making them suitable for both sweet and savory food applications. We match the grade and pack size to the buyer's product design.

From Fresh Chestnuts to Frozen Peeled Chestnuts

1. Raw Material Selection

We select mature, full chestnuts and remove raw material with obvious insect damage, mold or serious breakage.

2. Washing and Size Sorting

We wash shell surface impurities and sort by size to support more consistent peeling and grading.

3. Scoring / Shell Cutting

We score the chestnut shell to support later shell removal and inner skin peeling.

4. Steam Peeling / Heat Treatment

We use steam or heat treatment to help remove shell and inner skin.

5. Inner Skin Removal

We control inner skin residue because it affects appearance, mouthfeel and downstream processing.

6. Manual / Optical Sorting

We remove black-spotted, insect-damaged, moldy, over-broken and unsuitable products.

7. IQF Freezing

We freeze chestnuts individually to reduce serious clumping and support weighing, packing and use.

8. Metal Detection and Final Inspection

We inspect finished product condition and complete metal detection before packing.

9. Packing and Frozen Storage

We pack by batch, mark cartons and keep frozen storage at -18°C or below before loading.

Peeling Quality and Inner Skin Residue Control

Peeled chestnuts should be checked for shell residue and inner skin residue because these points affect appearance, mouthfeel and downstream processing. Whole peeled chestnuts require higher visual control than broken or puree-grade chestnuts.

Sorting after peeling is important because internal defects become more visible after shell removal. We help buyers confirm acceptable whole rate, broken rate, skin residue tolerance and grade before order confirmation.

Quality Points Buyers Should Confirm Before Ordering Frozen Peeled Chestnuts

Check Point	Why It Matters
Peel cleanliness	Shell and inner skin residue affect product appearance and mouthfeel.
Whole rate	Whole rate affects price, grade and premium visible applications.
Broken rate	Broken rate affects packing appearance and processing use.
Insect damage	Chestnuts require careful sorting because insect damage is a common quality risk.
Mold and black spots	These defects can create food safety risk and customer complaints.
Texture after cooking	Texture affects dessert, bakery, foodservice and ready meal performance.
Color consistency	Dark or blackened pieces affect visual grade and buyer acceptance.
Size uniformity	Uniform size supports packing, heating and industrial dosing.
Free-flowing IQF condition	Good IQF condition supports weighing, repacking and continuous production.
Ice crystal / glazing control	Excess ice can cause net weight disputes and clumping problems.
Foreign material control	Shell chips, inner skin, stones, metal and other foreign material must be controlled.
Microbiological control	Test support helps export and food manufacturing buyers review food safety.
Aflatoxin testing	Some nut-related and chestnut export programs may require batch testing.
Pesticide residue	EU, USA, Japan and other markets may request residue testing.
Cold chain stability	Temperature fluctuation can cause clumping and texture decline.

Mold, Insect Damage and Aflatoxin Testing Support

Fresh chestnuts should be inspected for mold, insect damage, black spots and abnormal odor before processing. After peeling, defective chestnuts should be removed through sorting and final inspection because inner quality problems become easier to see after shell removal.

Aflatoxin testing can be arranged according to destination market and buyer requirements. For EU, retail and strict food manufacturing buyers, pesticide residue, heavy metal, microbiological and aflatoxin test requirements should be confirmed before production, and each batch can be linked with COA and inspection documents when required.

Allergen and Ingredient Labeling Support

Chestnut ingredient declaration should follow destination market labeling requirements. For U.S. market projects, current FDA food allergen guidance no longer lists chestnut as a major tree nut allergen, but chestnut must still be declared in the ingredient list when used as an ingredient unless an applicable exemption applies.

For EU, retail, private label and foodservice customers, labeling requirements should be confirmed before packaging artwork production. Allergen statement and ingredient declaration can be prepared according to buyer requirements and destination market review.
