FAQs
How is 100% pistachio paste different from pistachio cream spread?
Pistachio paste is a concentrated, unsweetened base made from 100% ground pistachios with no added sugar or dairy. Pistachio cream spread is a sweetened, ready-to-use product with added ingredients for a smooth, spreadable texture. These two products are not interchangeable — pistachio paste is used to formulate recipes, while pistachio cream is used as-is for fillings, toppings, and spreads.
Can this be used to make pistachio iced lattes or pistachio matcha drinks?
Yes. Pistachio paste can be used as a base to formulate house-made pistachio flavor concentrates for café beverages. It requires blending with a sweetener and liquid (such as simple syrup or milk) before use in beverages, as it is not a ready-to-use flavored syrup.
Can it be used for Greek yogurt or açaí bowl applications?
Yes. Blend into plain Greek yogurt to create a pistachio-flavored yogurt base, or mix with a sweetener to produce a house-made pistachio sauce for açaí bowls. The unsweetened base allows full control over flavor and sweetness.
Is the 172g jar suitable for foodservice use?
Yes. The 172g jar is practical for small-batch production, recipe development, tasting menus, and specialty retail. For high-volume operations, the 3kg bulk format is also available.
Is this pistachio paste suitable for savory recipes?
Yes. The pure, unsweetened profile makes it suitable for savory applications such as pistachio sauces, dressings, and gourmet savory spreads, in addition to sweet pastry and gelato use.
