White confectionery sesame, high oil and protein content

We trade conventional white confectionery sesame seeds (Sesamum indicum L.) of Paraguayan origin. The confectionery variety is characterized by a whitish or bright yellowish-white color, flat oval shape and a neutral sensory profile typical of the species. Purity ≥ 99.90% and low free fatty acid content (≤ 2.0%) position it as food-grade raw material for the most demanding markets.

Confectionery sesame is driven by global demand for baking, confectionery, snacks and tahini production, with structural buyers in Asia and the Middle East. Its high oil content (≥ 50%) and protein (20–24 g / 100 g) also make it relevant as a functional ingredient for healthy blends. Every lot is delivered free of weevils and mold, with analytical documentation and an 18-month shelf life in original packaging.

How it's made

Three stages, clean and calibrated seed

1. Lot selection. Sesame harvested in Paraguayan fields arrives at the plant and is sorted by confectionery variety, uniform whitish color and compliance with purity parameters (≥ 99.90%). Lots that fail visual or analytical control are discarded or diverted to other uses.

2. Cleaning and calibration. The seed goes through successive sieving, aspiration and gravity-table separation stages to remove dust, plant residues and foreign seeds. It is then classified by size and color to ensure visual uniformity of the final lot, with controlled moisture (≤ 6.0%) to preserve oxidative stability.

3. Packaging and dispatch. Clean sesame is packed in 25 kg or 50 kg polypropylene bags with lot identification and harvest date. Lots are stored at ambient temperature, in a cool and dry place away from direct sunlight, with an 18-month shelf life in original packaging.

Applications

Four buyer industries

Baking industry

Decoration and formulation of breads, breadsticks, crackers and premium baked goods. The confectionery seed delivers uniform color, characteristic toastable flavor and crunchy surface texture.

Tahini and sesame paste

Key raw material for tahini, halva and sesame paste production targeting Middle Eastern, Mediterranean and health-focused retail markets. High oil content (≥ 50%) and low FFA (≤ 2.0%) are critical for industrial yield.

Snacks, granola and bars

Ingredient for cereal bars, granolas, seed mixes, brittles and healthy snacks. Provides plant protein (20–24 g / 100 g), unsaturated fats and calcium in a visually recognizable format.

Export to Asia and the Middle East

Export operations to structural buyers in Asia and the Middle East, where confectionery sesame is a staple food-basket input. Analytical documentation and lot traceability accompany every shipment.
