Raw almond paste made from skinless white almonds captivates with a subtle, delicate fragrance that is slightly sweet, with a hint of creamy nuttiness. The aroma of almonds is refined, unobtrusive, reminiscent of freshly peeled nuts that melt into the air, creating a soothing, natural bouquet.
Its taste is the quintessence of deliciousness - a subtle sweetness, harmoniously combined with a velvety, nutty note. Each bite is mild, slightly buttery, leaving a soft, smooth texture on the palate that almost melts in the mouth. It doesn't have the bitterness that almond skin sometimes carries - it's the pure, creamy essence of almonds.
The texture of the paste is extremely smooth, velvety, like silk. It spreads easily, leaving a thin, uniform layer that blends perfectly into any dish or bread spread. Its lightness and creamy texture make every contact with it a pleasure for the senses.

How Grapoila is bringing the Zero Waste philosophy to the production of sesame seed products
We would like to introduce our approach to zero-waste production using the example of the almonds from which we create our luxury products. Every part of the almond is fully utilized, and the production process follows the Zero Waste principle.
First, we cold-press the almond oil to preserve its full properties. The residue left after pressing is almond cake, which is not wasted - we grind it into almond flour, rich in protein, fiber and healthy fats. This flour is perfect as an addition to baked goods, desserts or smoothies, giving them a nutty flavor and nutritional value.
The sludge that is produced during the oil sedimentation process is not discarded - we turn it into natural cosmetics, which, thanks to their richness in nutrients, are great for skin care, moisturizing and nourishing.
At Grapoila, every part of the almond has a use: we press the oil, make flour and cosmetics, and no stage of production generates waste. This is the essence of our Zero Waste philosophy - producing in harmony with nature and caring for the environment.
We pride ourselves on creating products that are friendly to both people and the planet by maximizing the use of raw materials and eliminating waste.
Highlights of Grapoil's products
ZERO WASTE PHILOSOPHY
All by-product raw materials generated during the production of Grapoila products are 100% recycled, nothing is wasted. With the idea of producing high-quality, healthy food from natural ingredients in mind, Grapoil's intention has always been to create value also from what other producers condemned to discard, even grape pomace which is pure vineyard waste, at best used as animal feed - it was in pomace that Grapoil's founders saw a treasure trove of goodness with excellent physiological effects and high quality oil more than 10 years ago. With this first raw material, the production of Zero Waste of Grapoila's cold-pressed oils began.
During Zero Waste compliant production, all parts of incoming raw materials are processed, nothing is thrown away. In the case of grape pomace, grape skins rich in bioactive substances are separated from the seeds and ground after drying. Such pulp/cream can be used to flavor cakes and creams. The seeds are also dried and then oil is pressed from them - without heat treatment or additives - on our own presses. The resulting cold-pressed oils are highly nutritious, healthy food or cosmetic oils, which are bottled in dark bottles.
The precipitate formed before filtering the freshly pressed oil is oil sludge, which, like oil, is rich in essential fatty acids and vitamins, but also contains seed microparticles. It is sold as gourmet cream or cosmetic mud, depending on its nature.
From the "dry residue" after oil pressing, granules remain, which are low in fat and carbohydrates, but very rich in plant protein, vitamins and other nutrients, which are ground into gluten-free flours that are excellent baking additives.
Since we use only natural ingredients, the few by-products that we might not otherwise use are dried into feed, flower soil, compost or fuel. The latter, along with any green waste, is placed in a biomass boiler that heats the drying system, closing the loop. We also take environmental considerations into account when maintaining the plant. For cleaning, we mainly use air generated by a compressor. For wiping, we rent wipes from a company that extracts oil from the used cloth to heat the laundry and clean again.
With "Zero Waste" production, Grapoila reduces its environmental footprint while cutting costs.
TOP QUALITY
The high quality of Grapoila products with truly exceptional content and excellent taste depends primarily on the careful selection of raw materials and their processing under proper production conditions.
Grapoila takes extreme care in sourcing raw materials, buying them mainly from EU producers, who provide the opportunity to trace the entire cultivation process. The quality of seed storage and processing is guaranteed by the strictest certifications of the plant's food industry (HACCP, FSSC 20000, GMP), Grapoila's production facility does not accept 100% gluten-free food containing gluten, as evidenced by the certification of the European Gluten Free Association (AOECS).
In addition to adhering to strict food and quality standards, the production method itself ensures the high quality of Grapoila's oils. Thanks to high-performance, self-developed screw presses (as opposed to the traditional extraction oil production method) , there is no need to heat-treat the raw material, additives or chemicals. Oils extracted by cold-pressing contain all the natural, valuable nutrients of the seeds, restoring their original flavor, making them very healthy and delicious.
Nothing proves Grapoil's quality better than the many, many honors and awards that the products of this Hungarian manufactory have received at many important exhibitions and competitions in recent years. Year after year, Grapoil's oils and gourmet products delight the judges of competitions and tasting fairs, which includes recognized experts on both the national and international scene.
The exceptional quality of our products has also been recognized by many Hungarian gourmet restaurants and fine chefs, who prefer to use our cold-pressed oils, seed flours and seed creams for their seasonally renewable food compositions. Our success in the food and restaurant industry confirms that we are on the right track and that there is a demand for high-quality, chemically produced plant-based products.
100% NATURE = 100% HEALTH
Food from natural ingredients processed without chemicals is the basis of a quality diet. Seeds are nature's wonders: little microcosms full of valuable nutrients from which plant life draws, and from which - with a little care and skill - we can also benefit. That little "skill" is cold pressing (squeezing). This process ensures that the nutrients are carefully and tightly sealed in the seeds, using only mechanical means that do not alter the chemical composition of the raw materials. It's a completely chemical-free process, with no need for roasting (roasting is a real vitamin killer!), solvents, acid mucus removal, chemical clarification or deodorization.
Grapoil's engineering team has spent years designing screw presses that can ensure extrusion from seeds of different sizes and hardnesses with the highest possible efficiency. Throughout the production process, the temperature does not exceed 40°C, so that the aromas, flavors and nutrients naturally present in the seeds are fully preserved in the processed products.
Gluten-free seed flour obtained by grinding the pellet, which is separated from the oil during pressing, is also very rich in vitamins and minerals. Grapoil flours are an excellent natural source of fiber and plant protein, but they are also very low in carbohydrates and fat. Pumpkin seed flour, for example, has a protein content of almost 70%, and its amino acid composition is almost perfect.
