Spicy Maple Chili and Garlic Parmesan join Hot Honey Butter and Umami Citrus Zing as the premium pairing snack brand prepares for the Summer Fancy Food Show.
BRIDGEWATER, N.J., [06/25/2026] - Top Shelf Nuts, a premium small-batch gourmet cashew brand crafted to pair with cocktails, wine, whiskey, beer, mocktails, and elevated entertaining, is expanding its flavor lineup with two new products: Spicy Maple Chili and Garlic Parmesan.
The new flavors will be previewed as part of the brand's Summer Fancy Food Show debut as a Makers Prep exhibitor, joining Top Shelf Nuts' existing Hot Honey Butter and Umami Citrus Zing flavors. Together, the four-flavor lineup reflects the brand's core positioning: bold, balanced cashews designed for drink pairings and elevated snacking occasions.
Spicy Maple Chili delivers maple sweetness, chili heat, and a slow burn crafted to stand up to bourbon, dark beer, and smoky spirits. Garlic Parmesan brings a savory, creamy, roasted-garlic profile designed for lager, Chardonnay, pilsner, and classic cocktail-hour spreads.
The brand's original flavors continue to anchor the line. Hot Honey Butter combines sweet heat, a buttery finish, and a gentle kick, making it a natural fit for whiskey, cider, bourbon, and amber ales. Umami Citrus Zing features miso-infused depth, bright citrus, and a clean finish that pairs well with gin, cocktails, Sauvignon Blanc, and citrus-forward drinks.
"We want every flavor to have a clear reason to exist and a clear occasion," said Saju, founder of Top Shelf Nuts. "Spicy Maple Chili and Garlic Parmesan broaden the line while staying true to our pairing philosophy: familiar enough to be immediately enjoyable, but layered enough to feel premium."
Top Shelf Nuts packages its cashews in 4 oz resealable pouches designed for premium shelf presence and easy entertaining. The brand sees strong fit across specialty food stores, wine shops, liquor stores, gourmet retail, gifting, hospitality, and food-and-beverage events.
Buyers and media attending the 2026 Summer Fancy Food Show, taking place June 28-30 at the Javits Center in New York City, are invited to connect with Top Shelf Nuts to sample the current line and learn more about the upcoming flavors.
