A huge part of Indian celebrations is food. Special festive dishes, snacks and sweets are things we all look forward to, and are essential in every celebrations. This year things are different, with Covid and lock downs, it hasn’t really felt festive. The get togethers, the family gatherings, the feasts, the festivities – this time we are missing all of that. But also at times like these, we learn the importance of togetherness, family and loved ones. And if you’re looking for gifting ideas, Go Desi has launched a GO DESi Diwali Gift Box – a handmade premium festive gift box – a specially curated gifting option that features choicest products sourced from the rustic bylanes of India. Here’s wishing everyone a Happy Diwali 2020, this Diwali GO DESi with Handmade Premium Festive Gift Box – really a useful Diwali gift!

Unboxed Diwali Gift Box

The box contains the 3 essential DESi pops – 10 each of Tangy Imli, Real Aam, and Kaccha Aam in a pouch. These pops are made with natural ingredients and Indian spices – they are flavourful, and delicious as snacks. It’s perfect for all ages – kids and youngsters enjoy the perfect mixture of sweet, sour and spice. And adults take a trip trip down memory lane. Remembering the simple and rustic homemade snacks we were used to growing up.

The Goodies Inside!

This GO DESi Diwali Gift Box also contains some delicious snacks like Wild Apple Candy, Chatpata Amla DESi Chaat and Chocolate Coconut Laddoo. The Wild Apple Candies are also known as Heitup. It is hand-picked, dried and spiced straight from Manipur forests by first generation women entrepreneurs. It’s fruity and juicy, quite enjoyable. The DESi Chaat has Chatpata dried Amla, quite similar to my favourite lemon chaat – totally tangy and yum! The Chocolate Coconut Laddoos were first introduced in the Rakhee Gift Box and were instantly my favourite. They make a comeback in the Diwali Box, but don’t quite have the same taste – which was slightly disappointing. While chocolate lovers will like this better perhaps, we missed the taste of coconut – which made it similar to a dessert we make at home called Naadu.

The Last Word

The box itself is a beautiful work of art. The inside of the box converts into a painting inspired by Phad and Cheriyal art forms of India. The work can either be hanged with the holes provided or framed. The GO DESi Diwali Gift Box also includes 4 hand painted matka diyas, that are perfect for the festivities at home. This is great for diwali gift ideas for friends, corporate diwali gifts and for folks looking for unique diwali gift ideas. The box is priced at ₹999, but is available for pre order at ₹699 here. And you can use the code DEBOLINA15 for a 15% off site wide.
