Bis’Kajou Nutritious Biscuits & Fruit Candies combine two complementary nutritious products developed under the Bis’Kajou zero-waste approach. Both products are locally produced using cashew nut broken pieces and local fruits such as mango and maad, which are often underutilized or lost after harvest.
The biscuits are made from cashew broken pieces and provide a nutritious, plant-based food suitable for daily consumption. The fruit candies are soft, naturally flavored snacks developed from local fruits, offering energy and fruit-based nutrients as a healthier alternative to conventional sweets.
Designed for children, youth, and adults, these products can support household nutrition, school feeding initiatives, and local markets. Already commercialized, Bis’Kajou Nutritious Biscuits & Fruit Candies demonstrate the potential of transforming local agricultural by-products into affordable, nutritious, and value-added foods that contribute to food security, local income generation, and sustainable food systems.
