We're sorry to inform you that the raw bitter apricot kernel is under attack and is going to be banned very soon as a food product for human consumption due to new EU and UK legislation because of the high amounts of vitamin B17 contained per kg of seeds. The new restriction requirements states we must prove our kernels are under the following very low amount of 20mg of B17 per kg of kernels to be classed as a food product.
This does not effect fresh apricots you can buy from shops, blanched kernels or flavouring's such as marzipan or the drink amaretto where the B17 content has been diminished due to the high temperatures needed for processing these products.
This new upcoming Law (whether we remain in the EU or not) makes our Raw Bitter Kernels (and every other supplier/stockist in the EU) illegal for food consumption due to its high amount of Hydrocyanic acid, amygdalin, prussic acid or more commonly known as Vitamin B17. To stay compliant with the new legislation we can only sell you our popular bitter apricot kernels as a cosmetic product which is widely used as a beauty exfoliation ingredient.
