Mithai holds a special place in Indian tradition. It represents celebration. More often than not, lack of knowledge on how to store it best causes it to go bad. The lack of proper storage affects the shelf life of the sweets and they have to then be thrown away as they’re not fit for consumption.

Whether you buy mithai online in India or visit your favourite sweet shop in person, not storing it properly can affect its shelf life. Hence, our sweets come in a premium mithai packaging. We provide high quality boxes, advanced packaging techniques like nitro packing and vacuum sealing. Our sweets are always sold with packaging that helps maintain their freshness, taste and shelf life. As a heritage mithai brand, understanding storage techniques is as important as understanding premium mithai ingredients.

Here are 4 essential reasons why proper luxury mithai online storage matters, especially in India's humid climate.

1. Preserving Traditional Flavours and Nutritional Value

Preferring to buy luxury mithai online means purchasing more than just unique flavours, you are buying sweets that are carefully crafted, valuing generations of trust and culinary tradition.

Proper storage ensures that delicate flavours like saffron in Kesar Barfi or the rich ghee in Besan Laddu remain unchanged.

The Indian climate, especially in Mumbai, is very humid. This not only affects us but also our sweets. Your favourite mithai can lose its colour, texture, aroma, freshness and most importantly, taste.

We recommend storing your handcrafted Indian sweets in an airtight container. Most importantly, away from direct sunlight. For dry fruit fruit-based sweets, such as our buy dry fruit gift hampers online collection, we recommend keeping them away from excess moisture conditions. This works very well in storing our premium selections like Mixed Dry Fruit Barfi, which combines traditional sweetness with nutritious dry fruits.

Quick tip- Our mithai and airtight containers are best friends. Store them for optimum freshness, so that you can savour them one at a time or altogether (we don't judge).

2. Extending Shelf Life in Tropical Weather

India lies in the tropical and subtropical region, and with it come challenges for mithai storage. Your delicious treats can spoil due to Mumbai's 80-90% humidity levels and can cause rapid deterioration in taste and freshness. Mewaz’s heritage mithai always comes with specific storage conditions. We ensure we educate our consumers on correct storage practices. 

When you buy mithai online in India, keeping sweets in a temperature of 2-8°C will preserve their shelf life. What differentiates our luxury mithai sold online is that it has its own little cavities in every box, so don't worry about the pieces sticking together.

Sweets like Pista Barfi or Anjeer Rolls contain moisture-sensitive ingredients, hence storing these handcrafted Indian sweets online is equally important as enjoying them bite after bite.

Quick tip- Do read our suggestions for storage conditions, or if you are visiting our store in person, we'd be happy to talk you through them.

We also recommend that you do not store sweets in a plastic bag, as it will hamper their shelf life and taste.

3. Maintaining Texture and Appearance

Luxury mithai does not just imply taste or the use of rich ingredients. It is luxury in the look of every piece and bite. Intricate designs containing silver or gold foil and delicate garnishes require careful handling and improper storage can cause these decorative items to go stale or even affect the mithai's shape.

When you buy dry fruit gift hampers online, our premium chocolate mithai like Choco Treat maintains its glossy appearance and Mango Mania retain their perfect texture. Our heritage mithai brand ensures that our handcrafted Indian sweets sold online maintain their visual appeal when they’re delivered to you.

Quick tip- For maintaining mithai's texture and appearance, the use of shallow boxes with improper height can crush your mithai.

4. Climate-Conscious Storage Tips for Indian Conditions

For premium mithai to taste and look as rich as it does on arrival, storage and maintenance of that sweet is essential. 

Keep them within the optimal temperature range of 15-20°C and use moisture absorbers to avoid humidity and ensure a proper airtight box for storage.
