Specifications & Details

Product Description

Tavazo Traditional Kasmeh Pastry is a quintessential heritage Persian baked biscuit with deep roots in Qazvin and northwestern Iranian culinary culture. Formulated from refined wheat flour, shortening, fine sugar, strained artisanal yogurt, whole fresh eggs, pulverized green cardamom, and brewed saffron, it delivers an authentic regional flavor profile.
The hallmark of Kasmeh is its firm, snappy biscuit structure and exceptional natural shelf stability. Prior to baking, each oblong piece is coated with egg glaze and crusted with thoroughly cleaned, golden-toasted sesame seeds, producing a rich nutty nuance that pairs wonderfully with hot tea. Its negligible moisture content, structural rigidity, and resilience to climate stress make it an optimal SKU for long-distance transport, bulk hospitality catering, and overseas distribution.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

The primary driver of Kasmeh's prolonged stability is progressive gradient oven-baking that reduces residual moisture to below 4.0% and water activity ($a_w$) below 0.45. This ultra-dry environment suppresses bacterial, mold, and yeast proliferation. Concurrently, high oxidative-stability shortenings and nitrogen-sealed barrier wraps shield toasted surface sesame oils from rancidity.

Kasmeh exhibits a firm, compact, and dense biscuit crumb. Unlike delicate rice-flour, chickpea, or flaky halva sweets, it resists pulverization and corner-crumbling. It easily endures severe road vibrations and heavy static compressive loads, delivering near-zero breakage waste in wholesale logistics.

Wholesale minimum order quantity is 20 master cartons. Each master shipper packs 20 sanitary boxes of 500g each (10 kg net weight) wrapped in protective poly-liners. Standard shipping pallets accommodate 56 cartons across 7 securely strapped tiers.

Prior to processing, raw sesame seeds undergo optical sorting, thorough hydraulic washing, and thermal dry-roasting above 120°C. Subsequent passage through baking ovens provides a secondary thermal lethality step, ensuring validated negative tests for Salmonella, E. coli, and molds in accredited lab assays.

Yes. For hospitality operators, tea-houses, and corporate caterers, Kasmeh is packed in 5 kg and 10 kg bulk corrugated containers lined with heavy food-grade polyethylene bags. This institutional packaging reduces unit procurement costs by up to 15% by removing retail box expenses.

Given its dry baked profile, Kasmeh easily tolerates arid climates. An ambient window of 15–22°C with relative humidity below 45% is optimal. Storage adjacent to pungent chemicals or volatile goods must be avoided, as sesame fats can absorb ambient odors.

Consignments are cleared under international HS Code 190531 (Sweet Biscuits and Traditional Dry Bakery). Export documentation packs include an official FDA Health Certificate, certified Halal accreditation, Chamber Certificate of Origin, detailed packing list, and batch Certificate of Analysis.
