Large authentic branch-style rock candy crystals infused with pure saffron extract, packed in a 1kg hygienic box.
FAQ
The lattice strings consist of 100% virgin natural cotton, devoid of synthetic polyesters or chemical bleaches. Prior to immersion in syrup crystallizers, strings are autoclaved at high temperatures to eliminate loose lint and microbial loads.
Sucrose concentration is verified at minimum 99.5% on dry basis, with residual moisture strictly below 0.5%. This controlled dryness prevents crystal fusing and eliminates moisture-driven microbial activity during long storage.
The 1kg presentation incorporates double-wall corrugated side supports and food-safe parchment interlayers. This snug, compartmentalized layout cushions the crystal clusters against dynamic impact during cross-country freight.
Saffron extract is calibrated via spectrophotometric assays targeting a crocin color strength exceeding 220 units prior to cooking. This ensures precise infusion ratios into the crystallizers for uniform tint across every carton.
The master corrugated carton houses 12 boxes of 1kg (gross weight approx. 12.8 kg) using heavy-duty 5-ply construction. It withstands vertical column stacking up to five tiers on standard wooden pallets.
Owing to radial crystal formation along the linear thread, the clusters separate cleanly upon gentle manual pressure without crumbling into dust, facilitating elegant presentation in tea services.
The optimal window is 12 months. Superior product is recognized by gem-like glass transparency, absence of turbidity, natural saffron aroma free of burnt caramel odors, and deep amber-yellow hues.
