For iftar, most Pakistani tables start with dates (khajoor), then a small bowl of almonds or mix nuts. Order named date boxes plus a 250gm nut pack rather than guessing bulk.
This is a shopping list, not a religious or medical guide. Start with Dates and Almonds.

Key takeaways
- Dates first — pick Ajwa, Mabroom or a family box from the Dates category.
- Add one nut: badam giri or roasted pista from Almonds.
- A mix pack saves time if you want several items in one bag.
A simple iftar tray
One date listing + one almond or pistachio listing covers most homes. Open Ajwa if that is the name you want, otherwise any khajoor box you will finish during the month.
Avoid over-ordering
Opened nuts stale in heat. Prefer 250gm packs you can reseal, then reorder. Mix VIP 250gm is a compact option: Mix Dry Fruits VIP 250gm.

Questions people ask
How many dates per person?
Households differ. Buy a box size that matches how many people sit for iftar, not a bulk sack “just in case”.
Should I soak almonds for iftar?
Only if your family prefers them that way. Use a giri listing.
