Discover more about Exotic Mix

A colourful nut emporium in the heart of Torvehallerne

Exotic Mix sits in Hall 2 of Torvehallerne, Copenhagen’s glass-and-steel food market just off Nørreport. The stand is compact but instantly eye-catching, with walls lined by clear containers of nuts, chocolate dragées and dried fruits in every shade from pistachio green to ruby-red berries. Counters are stacked with open trays so you can see, and often smell, what you are about to choose. The concept blends the spirit of old Copenhagen market stalls with inspiration from trading traditions in Asia, the Middle East and South America. Behind the modern display lies a family business that has dealt in nuts and dried goods for generations, once based in the city’s old produce market and now firmly anchored in Torvehallerne.

Flavours from several continents in one stall

The core of Exotic Mix is its wide range of nuts: almonds, pistachios, cashews, macadamias and more, sold plain, roasted, salted, spiced or coated. You will find everything from delicately salted Marcona-style almonds to chilli-dusted cashews and honey-roasted mixes designed for snacking. Many varieties are tumbled in Belgian milk or dark chocolate, sometimes with layers of caramel, coffee or fruit. Alongside nuts, the stand offers dried fruits and berries such as apricots, mango, cranberries and blueberries, plus more unusual additions depending on the season. Dragées – nuts or fruits encased in chocolate and a thin sugar shell – are presented in neat rows, ideal for gifting. Staff are generally happy to explain what is in each blend and help you build a custom mix, whether you crave something sweet, savoury or a bit of both.

Browsing, tasting and gifting made easy

Much of the pleasure here is slow browsing. You can scan labels for ingredients and origins, compare textures through the transparent containers and choose between pre-packed bags or self-composed assortments. Smaller packs work well as market snacks, while larger gift boxes and jars are ready to slip into a suitcase. Because the stall sits among bakeries, coffee bars and street-food counters, it slots naturally into a wider visit to Torvehallerne. Many travellers weave in a stop at Exotic Mix between a morning coffee and lunch, using it as a place to pick up something for later in the day. The open, indoor setting means you can comfortably visit in any season without worrying about the weather.

Practical details and when to come

Exotic Mix usually keeps hours that follow Torvehallerne’s rhythm: mornings through early evening on weekdays, with slightly extended opening on Fridays and shorter days at the weekend. This makes it convenient for both a quick daytime errand and an unhurried browse before dinner elsewhere in the city. Crowds peak from late morning into mid-afternoon, when the food halls are busiest. If you prefer quieter browsing and more time to ask questions about specific products or allergens, aim for earlier in the morning or the last hour before closing. Payments are typically cashless, and mobile reception inside the market is generally strong enough to use translation apps or look up recipes as you shop.

Part of a wider Torvehallerne tasting journey

Although Exotic Mix is a single stall, it works best experienced as part of the wider Torvehallerne ecosystem. Its gourmet nuts, dried fruits and chocolate-coated treats pair well with the cheeses, wines and baked goods sold nearby, making it an easy place to assemble a picnic or hotel-room feast. Whether you are assembling a carefully balanced snack mix for the train, hunting for pistachios for baking, or looking for a compact gift that feels distinctly edible and Nordic-yet-global, Exotic Mix offers a focused, flavour-driven stop in central Copenhagen.
