Save the date – National Cashew Day 2024 is just around the corner! Get ready to embrace the nutty fun and learn all about this unique "holiday."

When is National Cashew Day?

Mark your calendars for November 23rd. Since it falls on a Saturday in 2024, cashew enthusiasts can enjoy the celebrations all weekend long!

On National Cashew Day, fans of this versatile nut come together to honor its many delights. Whether you enjoy snacking on a handful of cashews, indulging in cashew cake, topping your favorite desserts with them, or sipping on our Unsweetened Cashew Milk as a dairy-free alternative, this day is the perfect chance to treat yourself or share the joy of cashews with others.

Why are Cashews so Popular?

Before diving into the delicious ways to enjoy cashews on November 23rd, let's explore why they hold such a special place in our hearts, stomachs, and kitchens!

First off, the flavor. Cashews stand out from other nuts with their uniquely smooth and buttery taste. When whipped into recipes, they become rich and creamy,  offering a subtle nuttiness that enhances both sweet and savory dishes. This makes them the perfect choice for a Plant-Based Milk. If you haven’t tried it yet, check out our smooth and creamy Unsweetened and Sweetened Cashew Milk!

Beyond their delightful flavor and texture, cashews are also a nutritional powerhouse. They’re rich in protein, healthy fats, antioxidants, and essential vitamins and minerals, including vitamins B6 and K, as well as iron, magnesium, and zinc. Plus, they are naturally low in sugar and sodium, allowing you to indulge guilt-free in their natural sweetness and creaminess - especially when enjoyed in liquid form with your favorite Elmhurst products!

With all these benefits, it’s no wonder that cashews and cashew-based products are favorites among plant-based and health-conscious consumers alike!
