Buy dry fruits online in Kolkata
Kolkata searches for dry fruits the practical way: what a kilo of kaju, badam or akhrot costs, and whether chia and flax seeds can be had at all. This page answers both. The rate card below shows today’s price per kg for everything we keep, and the shelves under it are the ones Kolkata orders from — cashews and almonds for Bijoya and Puja sweets, kishmish for payesh, and seeds for the everyday breakfast bowl. Every order is weighed to the gram, sealed airtight and sent by courier.

Buying dry fruits online in Kolkata
Kolkata’s festive kitchen has a sweet tooth and a long memory. Basanti pulao is studded with kaju and kishmish, payesh is finished with raisins, and after Durga Puja the Bijoya visits begin, each one with a plate of mishti and something homemade. Jamai Sasthi sees a son-in-law’s thali heaped with fruit, sweets and dry fruit. In December the city turns to Christmas, and the rich fruit cake that households and bakeries make needs raisins, cherries and nuts soaked weeks ahead, well before the lights go up on Park Street.
Kolkata is one of our farther cities, and orders usually take 4–6 days by courier. Each order is weighed to the gram at our counter in Rajasthan and sealed airtight so it survives the journey east. Delivery is free on every order, and orders start at ₹1,000. We take online payment only.
What Kolkata orders from Puja to Christmas
- Kishmish for pulao and payesh. Lambi Dakh is long and plump and looks right on a pulao.
- Cashew for basanti pulao. Regular Cashew, fried in ghee until just golden.
- Cherries for the Christmas cake. Red Cherries, chopped and soaked with the raisins.
- Black raisins for the cake as well. Black Kismis gives the dark, rich fruit that a plum cake is known for.
- Nuts for the Jamai Sasthi thali. Whole almonds and cashews, arranged in small bowls.
Storing dry fruits in Kolkata’s humidity
Kolkata is humid for most of the year and very wet during the monsoon, which runs straight into Puja season. That is exactly when most families stock up. Raisins and cherries become sticky and clump in that air; cashews and makhana lose their crunch within days of opening. Keep everything in airtight jars, and put cashews and walnuts in the fridge between uses.
Winter is the one comfortable stretch, which is fortunate for cake season. Fruit soaked for the cake keeps well in a sealed glass jar in the fridge.
The raisin shelf has every kind we keep, and our guide to kishmish, munakka and dakh explains which one a recipe really means.
