Mixed Dry Fruit
per real serving, not per 100 g
What 1 small handful carries
143kcal
1 small handful — taken as 25 g — carries about 143 calories, with 4.0 g protein, 6.5 g carbohydrate and 11.3 g fat.
Per 100 g: 570 kcal and 16.0 g protein.

Assumed: 1 small handful ≈ 25 g — almonds, cashews, walnuts and raisins in rough proportion.
Mixed Dry Fruit by portion
Everything scales linearly from the 25 g serving. If your portion is bigger, so is the number.
| Portion | Grams | Calories | Protein | Carbs | Fat | Fibre |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 × 1 small handful | 25 g | 143 kcal | 4.0 g | 6.5 g | 11.3 g | 1.8 g |
| 2 × 1 small handful | 50 g | 285 kcal | 8.0 g | 13.0 g | 22.5 g | 3.5 g |
| 3 × 1 small handful | 75 g | 428 kcal | 12.0 g | 19.5 g | 33.8 g | 5.3 g |
| Per 100 g | 100 g | 570 kcal | 16.0 g | 26.0 g | 45.0 g | 7.0 g |
Carbohydrate is available carbohydrate; fibre is listed separately and is in neither the carbohydrate column nor the energy figure. Energy is reconciled against 4P + 4C + 9F on every build.

How mixed dry fruit is counted here
- The serving is the portion this food is actually eaten in — 1 small handful, taken as 25 g — not an anonymous 100 g.
- Composition is read off a named row: Recipe analysis, and the label on that row is printed above rather than hidden.
- Carbohydrate is available carbohydrate. Where a source publishes carbohydrate by difference, the fibre is subtracted here and the subtraction is stated.
- Energy is reconciled against Atwater factors on every build; a value that disagrees with its own macros does not ship.
serving kcal = 570 kcal/100 g × (25 g ÷ 100) = 143 kcal check = 4·P + 4·C + 9·F (±15%, ±20% high-fibre)
Where it sits on a fasting plate
Among the 6 entries in nuts & dry fruit on this site, mixed dry fruit ranks 4 of 6 for energy density at 570 kcal per 100 g.
Protein supplies 11% of its energy. That is respectable for the permitted list, but a whole day built on foods like this will still run short — see protein during a vrat.
It is fat-dominant, so the portion decides everything — a katori and a handful are very different amounts.
Questions
Is mixed dry fruit eaten during a vrat?
It is commonly eaten during a phalahar vrat in most households. Customs differ by family, region and community — this describes what is usual, not what is required.
How many calories are in 1 small handful of mixed dry fruit?
About 143 kcal for 1 small handful, taken as 25 g (almonds, cashews, walnuts and raisins in rough proportion). That is 4.0 g protein, 6.5 g carbohydrate and 11.3 g fat. Per 100 g it carries 570 kcal.
Is mixed dry fruit filling, or just energy?
Protein supplies about 11% of its energy, which is moderate. Pair it with curd, milk or nuts where your observance permits. Fibre is high at 7.0 g per 100 g. On a vrat that matters more than usual, because so much of the permitted food list is rapidly digested starch.

Practices are described as commonly observed; customs differ by family, region, community and sampradaya, and this site is not an authority on any of them. Food values come from the Indian Food Composition Tables 2017 (ICMR–NIN), the older ICMR–NIN tables, USDA FoodData Central, named composition studies and the shared ThaliFacts dataset, reconciled against Atwater factors on every build. Which source applies to which food is listed per food, and every source carries the date it was last checked. General information only — not medical or religious guidance. Fasting is not safe for everyone, particularly during pregnancy or with diabetes or other conditions. Speak to a doctor first.
