Top Notch Macadamias

13/03/2026

We are starting to think our friend George might actually be 70% dukkah at this point…

He loves our Traditional Macadamia Nut Dukkah so much we now make him a special 1kg bag just to keep up. 😂

But honestly… we get it.

Just look at these delicious ways to use it:
✨ Sprinkle over roasted carrots for crunch and flavour
🍗 Crust golden chicken with lemon
🥗 Toss through fresh pasta or salads
🍞 Dip warm focaccia in olive oil and balsamic, then into dukkah

Made with our spray-free Waikato macadamias, toasted spices and sesame, it’s the easiest way to add a nutty, savoury crunch to just about anything.

Stop saving the good stuff 👀

Dukkah belongs on your eggs.
Kicker Paste belongs on everything.
And macadamia oil? That’s your new everyday go-to.

Made from our family-grown macadamias and created for real kitchens, not just pretty shelves.
Use it. Share it. Go back for seconds 🌰

🌿 Not green forever… just growing beautifully. 🌿

These are our next season macadamias — still wrapped in their natural green protective husk while they mature on the tree.

Macadamias don’t start out brown and glossy… they begin life like this, safely tucked inside their outer shell, slowly developing flavour, oil content and size.

By around June, they’ll naturally drop from the tree when they’re ready. Then the real work begins:

✨ Hand picked
✨ De-husked
✨ Carefully dried
✨ Cracked and graded
✨ Then transformed into the premium macadamias you know and love

It’s a slow, hands-on process — but that’s exactly why they taste so good.

From orchard to snack bowl, every nut has a story 🌰🤍

🎄 Christmas order update 🎄

Just a calm little heads-up as we head into the final Christmas rush.
Orders placed after 5pm today, Tuesday 16 December, may not arrive in time for Christmas.

We’re working flat out in the kitchen to get all pre-Christmas orders out the door, but because everything is made fresh to order, we can’t make any guarantees once we’re past this cut-off. We promise we’re doing our absolute best (the elves are definitely earning their keep 🧑‍🍳🌰).

If you’re ordering now, please do so with this in mind — and thank you so much for your patience, kindness, and incredible support of our small family business during our busiest time of year. We appreciate you more than you know 🤍
