Hazelnut Oil Refined

Hazelnuts are high in unsaturated oleic acid and vitamin E. Refined hazelnut oil is used in a variety of applications including in food preparation and cooking, as well as in personal care and beauty products. Hazelnut oil has a stronger scent and darker color than the more neutral almond oil. It is easily, though slowly, absorbed into the skin.

Caloy’s hazelnut oil is mechanically expressed and lightly refined to ensure clarity and purity. We source from family-owned farms and work closely with the growers to ensure a steady supply of the best nuts.

Food-Grade Hazelnut Oil

Baked goods such as cookies, cakes, and muffins are excellent candidates for this nutty-flavored oil. It is also used in sauces and salad dressings. Due to hazelnut oil’s stronger flavor profile, it is typically reserved for dishes with more mild flavors.

Hazelnut Oil for Industrial Use

Hazelnut oil is highly unsaturated, making it a great carrier oil for cosmetic and personal care formulations. It’s color ranges from a light golden yellow to a yellow-brown color and it has a slightly nutty scent. This oil is great for oily skin as it is slower to absorb into the skin than other carrier oils. Hazelnuts are rich in vitamin E and oleic acid.
