Local tips

  • Come earlier in the day if you want the widest choice; popular nut and chocolate mixes can run low toward late afternoon on busy weekends.
  • Ask to combine several varieties in one bag so you can sample different flavours without buying large quantities of each.
  • Use Exotic Mix for easy edible gifts: pre‑packed assortments travel well and fit neatly into hand luggage.
  • If you prefer less sugar, focus on plain roasted nuts and dried fruits rather than the more elaborate chocolate‑coated specialties.

Gourmet Nuts in the Heart of Torvehallerne

Exotic Mix sits inside TorvehallerneKBH, Copenhagen’s glass‑and‑steel food market just off bustling Linnésgade. Here, under the high ceilings of Hall 2, the stall’s bins and jars overflow with glossy almonds, pistachios, cashews and hazelnuts, piled high in neat rows or tumbled into inviting mounds. The setting feels both modern and rooted in classic market tradition, with traders calling greetings and the aroma of coffee, spices and fresh bread drifting across the hall. The concept draws inspiration from old Copenhagen market stands and a family nut stall at the city’s former wholesale produce market. That heritage shows in the attention to freshness and the breadth of the selection, which ranges from simple roasted nuts to elaborate chocolate‑coated creations. Even in a market packed with temptations, Exotic Mix stands out as a focused shrine to all things crunchy, chewy and sweet.

From Middle East Bazaars to Nordic Snack Bowls

The flavours at Exotic Mix trace a route far beyond Denmark. Many of the recipes and ingredients are inspired by Middle Eastern souks, Asian snack traditions and South American harvests, then adapted to Scandinavian tastes. You might spot deep‑green pistachios destined for baking, plump dates ready to be turned into energy balls, or tropical dried mango and pineapple alongside more classic raisins and apricots. Alongside the single‑ingredient nuts and fruits, there are elaborate dragée and chocolate assortments. Nuts come coated in Belgian dark or milk chocolate, dusted with berry powders or caramelised into glossy, brittle clusters. Sweet‑salt combinations are a house specialty, pairing sea salt with caramel, liquorice or chili for a Nordic twist on familiar flavours. For travellers, it’s an easy way to pick up an edible souvenir that captures both global influences and local preferences.

Choosing Your Perfect Mix

Visiting Exotic Mix feels a bit like stepping into an old‑fashioned confectioner, but with nuts as the star. Staff scoop from large containers into bags or boxes, letting you combine different flavours in one purchase. You can build your own blend from plain roasted nuts, fruit‑heavy mixes, chocolate‑rich combinations or lighter, unsweetened selections. Pre‑packed gift boxes offer neatly arranged assortments, ideal if you are heading on to a dinner or looking for presents. Because most items are sold by weight, you can buy just a small handful to snack on while wandering Torvehallerne or stock up on a larger bag for the rest of your trip. The displays make it easy to compare textures and coatings, and you can focus on vegan‑friendly fruit and nut mixes, or lean into more indulgent chocolate and caramel options. It is as much about browsing and discovery as it is about satisfying a craving.

Market Atmosphere and Sensory Details

Part of Exotic Mix’s appeal is its position within Torvehallerne’s lively ecosystem. Standing at the stall, you are surrounded by the clink of glasses from nearby wine bars, the hiss of espresso machines and the murmur of shoppers discussing their next taste. Light filters in through glass walls and reflects off metal scoops and polished jars, giving the entire stand a bright, almost jewel‑box quality. The air carries a layered aroma: toasted nuts warmed by the indoor lighting, cocoa from chocolate dragees, and fragrant hints of spices from neighbouring vendors. Colours are intense, from emerald pistachios and ruby cranberries to gold‑brown almonds and pastel‑hued coated sweets. Even a quick stop to buy a small bag becomes a sensory pause in the middle of the city.

Practical Visiting Notes

Exotic Mix keeps generous hours in step with the wider market, typically opening late morning and running into the early evening on weekdays, with slightly longer hours on Fridays and full daytime service at weekends. This makes it an easy add‑on to a central‑city itinerary, whether you come for a light breakfast in Torvehallerne, pass through at lunchtime or drop by in the late afternoon. Prices vary by product but sit in the mid‑range for gourmet snacks in Copenhagen, reflecting both the quality of the ingredients and the central location. Most people spend only a short time at the stall itself, since there is no seating, but it pairs naturally with a broader wander through the market halls. With strong mobile reception and clear signage throughout Torvehallerne, it is straightforward to find Hall 2 and navigate to stand 6, even on busier days.
