Carton (CTN-BX) containing 12 individual 840 g packs. Total nominal contents equal 10.08 Kg per carton, commercially identified as approximately 10 Kg.
Storage and Handling
Store in a cool, dry place protected from light, keeping packages properly sealed. Avoid moisture, elevated temperatures and prolonged exposure to air, as these conditions may affect the crispness of the oats and promote oxidation of the naturally occurring oils in nuts and seeds. Once opened, keep tightly sealed to preserve aroma, texture and freshness.
Quality and Selection Criteria
The granola should present a clean, well-distributed blend with rolled oats as the predominant base and clearly visible dried fruit, pecans, pumpkin seeds, Runner peanuts and sliced almonds. Oats, nuts and seeds should maintain a crisp texture, while the dried fruit should remain soft and chewy. Aroma should be fresh and toasted, with balanced sweetness from honey and cane sugar. Reject product showing moisture, excessive clumping, rancidity, significant loss of crispness, infestation, mold or foreign odors.

Granola combines cereals with nuts, seeds and sweetening ingredients that develop more pronounced aromas and textures during toasting. In this Santa Maura® formulation, rolled oats form the primary base, while pecans, almonds, Runner peanuts and pumpkin seeds provide different levels of crunch and nutty flavor; dried cranberries and raisins contribute fruity contrast and a chewy texture. Honey and cane sugar complement the toasted ingredients with sweet and subtly caramelized notes. The formulation naturally combines carbohydrates, dietary fiber, protein and predominantly unsaturated fats from its different ingredients; any specific nutritional claims should be supported by the finished product's nutritional analysis.
