Pistachios for Turkish Delight & Confectionery Manufacturers

Antep Pistachios in Turkish Delight and Confectionery

Pistachio lokum is one of the best-known Turkish sweets, and pistachios are also central to nougat, halva, dragées, marzipan and countless desserts. In all of these products the pistachio has to look good, taste good and hold its shape inside a sweet, often sticky mass. Gaziantep pistachios offer the vivid colour and distinctive aroma that confectionery customers expect. Niyaz Food supports manufacturers looking for pistachios for Turkish delight, confectionery and desserts with professional supply built on four generations of experience.

Which Forms Suit Which Products

• Green pistachio kernels: whole kernels with a vivid green colour for pistachio lokum, nougat and premium confectionery where whole nuts show in every cut.
• Slivered pistachios: elegant green slivers for coating and decorating lokum, desserts and gift-box confectionery.
• Diced pistachios: evenly sized pieces that distribute well through lokum, halva, nougat and dessert bases.
• Meverdi kernels: a cost-effective option for fillings and mixed products where colour and price need to be balanced.

Many producers use several forms in one range – for example whole kernels inside the lokum and slivered pistachios on the outside. We can combine the forms you need in a single offer.

Quality and Consistency

In confectionery, the colour, size and taste of the pistachio must stay the same from lot to lot, or the look of your product changes. We select products carefully together with our producers, have them sorted and processed under controlled conditions, and work in line with ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 22000:2018. Before you order, we agree the grade and form you need, and copies of our certificates are available for your supplier approval process.

Packaging and Export

Our products are available in 10 kg cartons, 20 kg vacuum cartons and 25 kg OPP sacks. Vacuum packing is preferred for green kernels and slivered pistachios, where colour and freshness matter most. For confectionery manufacturers abroad, we prepare export-ready shipments as a pistachio exporter in Turkey, with the documentation your destination requires available on request.
