Whole sun-dried apricots with stones on a plate
Our story

We started with a tray of apricots on a rooftop

The first batch was a family habit — whole apricots laid out to dry in the late-summer sun, stones left in, skins gone leathery and sweet. They tasted nothing like the bright orange rings from the supermarket.

That difference became the whole idea behind Zlavabox shop. We work with growers we can call by name, dry fruit slowly at low temperatures, and leave out the sulphur and syrups wherever the fruit doesn’t need them.

Why people keep a pouch nearby

Simple snacking, thought through

Whole fruit, fewer steps

Most of our range is just the fruit, dried. Ingredient lists you can read in one breath.

Dried low and slow

Gentle drying keeps colour and natural sweetness instead of cooking it out.

Sourced with names attached

We buy from growers and importers we know, and we’re happy to tell you where each fruit comes from.

Packed to order

Pouches are filled and sealed when you order, so nothing sits around losing its bite.

Why our dates feel different

There’s soft caramel-soft, and then there’s our Medjool. Here’s what we look for before a date earns a place in the pouch.

  • Picked ripe, not forcedLeft on the palm until naturally soft, so the sweetness is the fruit’s own.
  • Nothing addedNo glucose syrup, no glaze. The shine you see is the date itself.
  • Pitted on requestChoose pitted Deglet Nour for baking, or whole royal dates for the table.
From orchard to pouch

How we dry

No mystery, no shortcuts — three honest steps.

01

Pick ripe

Fruit is harvested at full ripeness, when the sugars have developed naturally on the tree or vine.

02

Dry gently

We dry at low temperatures over long hours, removing water while keeping the flavour and colour intact.

03

Pack fresh

Each pouch is filled and sealed when you order, then sent out from our Budapest workshop.

From our customers

What lands in the basket again

★★★★★

The whole dried apricots taste like the ones my grandmother used to make. Chewy, a little tart, properly fruity.

— Réka T., Budapest
★★★★★

Ordered the mango and the dragon fruit out of curiosity. Both disappeared within a week. The packaging is lovely too.

— Daniel K., Debrecen
★★★★☆

Royal dates are genuinely soft and not over-sweet. Delivery to Szeged took two days, well packed.

— Anna M., Szeged
Good to know

Questions we’re often asked

Most of our range is dried with nothing added — the sweetness is the fruit’s own. A few items, such as the gold mango, use a small amount of sugar; this is always stated clearly on the product and the pouch.

Keep the pouch sealed in a cool, dry cupboard away from direct sunlight. Once opened, fold it shut or move the contents to an airtight jar. Naturally dried fruit can firm up over time — that’s normal.

We deliver across Hungary, usually within 2–4 working days, and to most EU countries. Shipping is calculated at checkout, and orders over €40 ship free within Hungary.

Our traditional whole apricots are dried with the stone left in, which is how they’re made in many growing regions. Please bite carefully. If you prefer pitted fruit, our orange dried apricots are stone-free.

A little note when something new is drying
