Benefits
98% almonds: the almond's nutritional profile in a premium creamy form:
With 98% almonds as the main ingredient, Almond Cream fully retains the nutritional profile of roasted almonds — one of the most nutrient-dense foods in the plant kingdom. Almonds are particularly rich in: Vitamin E (~25mg/100g — one of the world's richest plant sources, covering ~167% of the NRV) with potent antioxidant properties for cell membranes; Magnesium (~270mg/100g — ~72% NRV) essential for muscle function, ATP synthesis and muscle relaxation; Calcium (~250mg/100g — ~31% NRV) for bone health; Riboflavin (B2) and Niacin (B3) for energy metabolism; and folic acid for DNA synthesis and cell division. Roasting almonds develops Maillard compounds that create the characteristic toasted and caramelised notes distinguishing roasted almonds from raw almonds.
21g of protein per 100g: almond's plant-based protein:
With 21g of protein per 100g, Almond Cream is a significant source of plant protein — slightly lower than pure Peanut Butter (24g/100g) but higher than most other nut butters on the market (hazelnut spreads: ~13g/100g; cashew butter: ~17g/100g). Almond protein has an incomplete amino acid profile (deficient in lysine), but combined with the skimmed milk powder in the formula (which is rich in lysine), it creates a combined protein with higher biological value. For those using Almond Cream as a protein supplement in shakes or breakfast, combining it with whey protein or milk completes the amino acid spectrum.
The almond's lipid profile: Omega-9 and cardiovascular monounsaturated fats:
Almonds have one of the best fatty acid profiles in the plant kingdom: ~67% oleic acid (Omega-9, monounsaturated — the same main fatty acid in olive oil), ~20% linoleic acid (Omega-6, polyunsaturated) and only ~7% saturated fats. A high proportion of oleic acid is associated with reduced LDL-cholesterol, maintenance of HDL-cholesterol, and vasoprotective effects documented in multiple epidemiological studies and clinical trials. The PREDIMED study documented that regular consumption of nuts (especially almonds) was associated with a 30% reduction in the risk of major cardiovascular events. Unlike peanut butter (mostly Omega-9 + Omega-6), almonds have an even more favourable Omega-9:Omega-6 ratio, making Almond Cream especially suitable for those who want to maximise their intake of cardiovascular monounsaturated fatty acids.
Three premium flavours: Chocolate, White Chocolate, and Cookie:
The three Almond Cream flavours cover three distinct pleasure profiles. Chocolate (real defatted cocoa powder + flavouring): the most intense and classic flavour, recreating chocolate almond spread without the sugar of equivalent commercial products — the healthy alternative to "Almond Roca" or "chocolate marzipan". White Chocolate: sweeter and creamier, with vanilla and milk notes of white chocolate, without the bitterness of cocoa — ideal for those who prefer milder, sweeter flavours. Cookie: butter cookie flavour (similar to Peanut Cream's Biscuit flavour) combining the comfort of classic cookies with almond's premium nutritional profile.
No added sugar + Sucralose: indulgence without the glycemic impact:
As with Peanut Cream Biscuit, Almond Cream uses sucralose as a sweetener — zero calories, zero glycemic impact, no interference with glucose metabolism. The only sugars present are those naturally found in almonds and skimmed milk. Suitable for low-carb, ketogenic diets, and for people with diabetes or those managing blood glucose levels.
No palm oil + GMO Free + Gluten-free: Quamtrax's commitment to quality:
Almond Cream does not use palm oil (the stabilising oil added to most commercial nut butters), is made with non-GMO almonds, and is naturally gluten-free — making it suitable for people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity who want a certified nut butter.
Uses
Consume as desired, alone or spread. Ideal on toast, protein bread, pancakes, waffles, protein shakes (1 to 2 tablespoons add almond flavour + healthy fats + protein without sugar), Greek yogurt, oat porridge, fitness muffins and cakes, or directly from the spoon as a snack. Suggested portion: ~10 to 30g. Store in a cool, dry place. 250g.
