What Are Mix Dry Fruit Packs?
A mix dry fruit pack is a combination of different nuts and dried fruits in one packet. Ours contains pistachios (pista), roasted cashews (kaju), almonds (badam), and yellow raisins (kishmish). Instead of buying four separate packs, you get variety in one.
Think of it like a snack box where every handful tastes a little different. One bite you get the crunch of almonds, the next you get the natural sweetness of raisins. That’s the whole point of a mix — you’re not stuck eating the same thing over and over.
Why Choose Mewa.pk Mix Dry Fruit?
No added sugar. The only sweetness in this pack comes from the raisins themselves. We don’t coat anything in sugar syrup or add extra sweeteners.
No sulfur dioxide. Many commercial dry fruits use sulfur dioxide to keep their color bright. We skip this completely, which means the fruit looks slightly duller but is chemical-free.
Roasted, not fried. Our cashews are dry roasted, not deep fried in oil. This keeps the fat content lower and the taste more natural.
Sourced from Gilgit-Baltistan. Much of our raw material comes from high-altitude farms in northern Pakistan, where the cooler climate and clean air produce naturally sweeter, denser fruit.
Farm to table. We cut out unnecessary middlemen. This keeps the product fresher and lets us offer it at a fairer price.
Nutritional Benefits
This mix combines four different nutrient profiles in one pack. Here’s what each one brings to the table.
Protein
Cashews and almonds are both solid protein sources. A 28g (1 oz) serving of mixed nuts from this pack gives you roughly 5-6g of protein, which helps with muscle repair and keeps you feeling full longer.
Healthy Fats
Pistachios and almonds contain mostly unsaturated fats — the kind linked to better heart health. A single ounce of almonds has around 14g of fat, but most of it is the monounsaturated type.
Iron
Raisins and cashews both carry a decent amount of iron. This matters for people who feel tired or low on energy often, since iron helps carry oxygen through your blood.
Fiber
Almonds alone provide about 3.5g of fiber per ounce. Fiber slows down digestion, which helps you avoid the sugar spikes you’d get from processed snacks.
Potassium
Pistachios are one of the more potassium-rich nuts, with close to 300mg per ounce. Potassium supports normal muscle function and helps balance sodium levels in the body.
Who Should Eat Mix Dry Fruit?
- Office workers: A small handful beats a vending machine snack. It’s slower-digesting, so you won’t crash an hour later.
- Athletes and gym-goers: The mix of protein, fat, and natural carbs from raisins makes this a decent pre or post-workout snack.
- Kids: Growing kids need healthy fats and protein. Just watch portion size, since nuts are calorie-dense.
- People avoiding processed snacks: If you’re trying to cut down on chips and biscuits, this is an easy swap.
- Diabetics: In small, controlled portions this can work, but the raisins do add natural sugar. Please talk to your doctor about how much fits your diet.
How to Use Mix Dry Fruit
- As a desk snack. Keep a small pouch at your desk for when hunger hits between meals.
- In your morning oats or yogurt. Toss a spoonful on top for crunch and natural sweetness.
- In sheer khurma or kheer. This mix is already portioned for sweet dishes that call for a variety of nuts.
- As a gift. Pack it in a nice jar or box — it works well for Eid, weddings, or when visiting someone’s home.
- Crushed over ice cream or desserts. A quick way to add texture to something plain.
How to Store Mix Dry Fruit
Keep the pack in an airtight container, away from direct sunlight and moisture. A cool, dry pantry works fine — you don’t need to refrigerate it. If you live somewhere hot and humid, storing it in the fridge will help it last longer without going soft or stale. Once opened, try to finish the pack within 4-6 weeks for the best taste.
What is in a mix dry fruit pack?
A mix dry fruit pack usually contains a combination of nuts and dried fruits like pistachios, cashews, almonds, and raisins. Mewa.pk’s mix includes roasted kaju, pista, badam, and yellow kishmish. The exact combination can vary by brand, but the goal is always variety in one packet.
Is mix dry fruit good for health?
Yes, mix dry fruit is a good source of protein, fiber, and healthy fats. It combines nutrients from different nuts and fruits, giving you a wider range of vitamins and minerals than eating just one type. That said, portion control matters since nuts are calorie-dense.
Can diabetics eat mix dry fruit?
Diabetics can eat mix dry fruit in small, controlled portions. The raisins in the mix do contain natural sugar, which can affect blood sugar levels. It’s best to check with a doctor or dietitian about how much fits into your specific diet plan.
Is mix dry fruit better than eating fresh fruit?
Mix dry fruit and fresh fruit offer different benefits and aren’t directly interchangeable. Dried fruit is more calorie-dense and has concentrated natural sugars since the water content is removed, while fresh fruit has more water and typically more vitamin C. Nuts in the mix, however, add protein and fat that fresh fruit doesn’t provide.
How long does mix dry fruit last?
Mix dry fruit typically stays fresh for 4-6 weeks after opening if stored properly. Keeping it in an airtight container away from heat and moisture extends its shelf life. Unopened packs, kept in a cool dry place, can last several months.
Where can I buy mix dry fruit in Pakistan?
You can buy mix dry fruit online in Pakistan directly from Mewa.pk. All products are sourced from Gilgit-Baltistan and other mountain regions, with no added sugar or sulfur dioxide. Orders are delivered nationwide across Pakistan.
