What BB is
BB stands for "Baby Bits" — the smallest cashew fragments commercially traded, typically under 2mm. These are the finest particles produced during shelling, peeling, and grading. While the smallest grade, BB still meets food-grade specifications when sourced from reputable processors.
Best uses
- Cashew flour — BB grinds to flour with minimal additional milling
- Garnish toppings on sweets, desserts, cereals
- Cashew-based seasoning blends and dressings
- Industrial food ingredient (sauces, dressings, vegan meat formulations)
- Premium animal feed (when food-grade BB cannot find a higher-paying application)
- Cashew protein and flour for vegan ingredient manufacturing
Caveat — quality matters more at this grade
Because BB fragments come from various processing stages, lots can vary in aflatoxin, moisture, and foreign-matter content more than higher grades. Always request third-party testing certificates and verify FSSAI/APEDA (or BRC/HACCP for Vietnamese origin) before placing larger orders.
