The team behind this Canadian chain knows what we want to eat — and for how much. Clean and organized, its multitude of locations (including in Liberty Village, the Annex and Greektown) cater to customers with bins brimming with candied fruits and nuts, flours, cereals, chocolate, and a surprising number of herbs, spices, teas and treats.

Pull yourself away from the St. Lawrence Market's other attractions, and find an abundance of must-haves at this family-run shop. Founded by Italian immigrants, it's no surprise that the offerings run from customary dried fruits and nuts to more unusual imports, like tinned tomatoes, chocolates and grassy, rich olive oils.

Bulk shopping goes upscale at this cute, zero-waste Roncesvalles Village spot.

There's more to this Bloordale Village spot than the obvious, though the team does stock nuts in abundance. Customers pick and choose from a wealth of health products, fresh ingredients and local goodies, with stock rotating often enough to make repeat visits a must.


Trupti

Trupti

This North York shop gives customers first-hand access to Trupti's spice blends, flours, snacks, rice and substantial number of additional products. Plan ahead because you won't leave empty-handed.

Tavazo Dried Nuts and Fruits

Tavazo Dried Nuts and Fruits

Few spots (if any) offer the range of dried fruits and nuts found at this Iranian market, with several locations (including in Thornhill and North York). Stop by for essentials, then surrender to the call of traditional pastries, imported honey, candies, snacks and boxes of treats too beautiful to give away.
