Fresh Nuts for Every Kitchen
Whether you're topping up the snack drawer, restocking the cupboard before a big bake, or buying nuts in bulk for your business, you're in the right place. At Chandra Foods we've been supplying families, home cooks, bakers and trade customers across the UK with quality nuts since 1985.
Every variety we stock is carefully sourced for freshness and flavour, then packed and dispatched quickly so it arrives tasting exactly as it should. Order a single bag of whole almonds for everyday snacking, a kilo of cashews for curry nights, or several kilos for the deli shelf. Delivery is free on UK orders over £40.
Our Nuts Range
We stock the everyday essentials alongside the more special varieties that lift a recipe. Here is what we offer and what each nut does best.
Almonds
The most versatile nut in the kitchen. Buy whole almonds to eat raw as a snack, stir through biryani and kheer, or chop into bakes. For baking and garnishing we also stock sliced almonds, blanched almonds and gluten-free almond flour. Almonds are a natural source of vitamin E, magnesium and plant protein. See the full almonds range.
Cashews
Buttery, creamy and naturally mild, cashews are the go-to nut in South Asian cooking. They thicken sauces, add richness to korma and butter chicken, and blend into a smooth dairy-free cream. Stock up on whole cashew nuts and you'll find a use for them almost every day.
Walnuts
Earthy, slightly bitter and a natural source of omega-3 fatty acids. Fold them into coffee cake, banana bread and brownies, crumble them over a rocket and blue cheese salad, or eat them by the handful. Order walnut halves and keep a jar on the kitchen counter.
Pistachios
Naturally sweet, green and endlessly snackable. Pistachios work in both sweet and savoury dishes, from Middle Eastern pastries and Indian mithai to ice cream and salad toppings, and they are a favourite on Eid and Diwali platters. Try our roasted pistachios in shell.
Brazil Nuts
Large, creamy and one of the richest natural food sources of selenium. Add them to a mixed nut bowl or eat two or three on their own as a simple snack. Shop whole Brazil nuts.
Hazelnuts
Warm, toasty and naturally sweet, hazelnuts are a baker's best friend. Roast them lightly to bring out their depth, chop them for pastries, or blend them into a homemade chocolate hazelnut spread. They pair well with dark chocolate, coffee and orange. Buy whole hazelnuts online.
Macadamia Nuts
Rich, smooth and the indulgent choice. Bake them into white chocolate and macadamia cookies, blend them into nut butter, or enjoy them as a treat. Try our whole macadamia nuts.
Pecan Nuts
Sweet and buttery. The classic choice for pecan pie, and just as good in maple granola, flapjacks, traybakes and sticky toffee pudding. Order pecan nuts for baking all year round, not only at Christmas.
Pine Nuts
Small, delicate and subtly sweet. Toast them in a dry pan for two minutes and scatter over pasta, roasted courgettes or flatbreads. They are essential for a proper homemade pesto, and far better value when you buy pine nuts in a larger pack than a tiny supermarket packet.
Coconut
A pantry staple in Indian and global cooking. Add fine, unsweetened desiccated coconut to chutneys, curries and ladoo, or use it in baking for natural sweetness and texture.
Buying Nuts in Bulk
Buying in bulk saves money, cuts packaging and means you never run out halfway through a recipe. Our bulk nuts UK range offers larger packs across most varieties, ideal for families, batch cooks and anyone tired of paying premium prices for small supermarket portions.

- Plant-based protein for vegan and vegetarian diets
- Unsaturated fats
- Dietary fibre
- Vitamin E, highest in almonds and hazelnuts
