Seed & Nut Mix: The Healthy Topping for Professional Kitchens
Nectaflor Kernen-Mix is a Swiss gourmet blend of unroasted seeds and nuts in a resealable 1 kg pack: shelled sunflower seeds, shelled pumpkin seeds, slivered almonds and pine nuts. Produced by Narimpex AG in Biel/Bienne, it offers 24.5 g of protein and 8 g of fibre per 100 g, is certified vegan and contains no added sugar and only 0.05 g of salt per 100 g. Because the seeds are never roasted, their unsaturated fats, vitamins and minerals stay intact.
What Is a Seed & Nut Mix
A seed and nut mix combines several oilseeds and tree nuts to deliver texture, healthy fats and plant protein in a single ingredient. The Nectaflor blend joins four raw materials in variable weight proportions, so each batch keeps the same nutritional profile while the visual ratio of seeds may shift slightly. It is a pantry staple for any kitchen that wants to add crunch and nutrition without cooking or extra preparation.
The Producer: Narimpex and the Nectaflor Brand
The mix is prepared in Switzerland by Narimpex AG, based at Schwanengasse 47 in Biel/Bienne. Narimpex has run the Nectaflor brand for over 60 years across honey, seeds and nuts, with an uncompromising focus on quality and food safety. The Swiss origin of the packaging guarantees a consistent food service standard and full traceability.
Sensory Profile
The blend is crunchy and naturally savoury, with the nutty sweetness of sunflower seeds, the deep green pumpkin seeds, the delicate butteriness of pine nuts and the toasted-free crispness of slivered almonds. With no roasting, salting or sugar coating, the flavour stays clean and lets each component come through.
