Beautifully thin, crunchy, and naturally sweet, these pesticide-free sliced almonds are grown by Casarosa Almonds, a family-run orchard in Taylorville, South Australia. Sliced from whole nonpareil almonds and air-dried for freshness, they offer a crisp bite and creamy texture—perfect for baking, garnishing, or toasting.
Whether you’re topping a morning granola bowl, folding them into biscotti, or adding crunch to your salads, these almonds add rich flavour and wholesome texture. Grown without chemical sprays and carefully processed in-house, they retain the integrity of true, fresh Australian almonds.
About the Grower
Casarosa Almonds (also known under their retail label The Almond Farmer) is a multi-generational almond farm run by the Casaretto family in South Australia’s Riverland. Led by Jarrad and his parents, the family transitioned to pesticide-free farming practices after noticing the impact of chemical inputs on farm health and family wellbeing.
Now committed to sustainable growing methods, they manage the entire process on-site— from planting and harvesting to cracking and packing—ensuring transparency, traceability, and exceptional quality in every batch.

FAQs
Are these almonds certified organic?
They’re not, but are grown without synthetic pesticides or fungicides under Casarosa’s chemical-free farming system.
Do these almonds contain the skin?
No. These are thinly sliced blanched almonds—meaning the skins have been removed for a softer texture and cleaner flavour.
Are they raw or roasted?
They’re raw, with no roasting, oiling, or added salt. Perfect for baking or toasting to your preference.
