Diwali in a Thanjavur home begins in the kitchen, days before the lamps are lit. The ghee is warmed, the sweets are stirred slowly, and the savouries are pressed by hand. This year we are bringing that kitchen to your table, whether you want to celebrate at home, send a gift to someone you love, or sit down to a traditional Diwali meal.

Diwali gift packs

Three ways to celebrate. Every sweet comes in a glass jar, and every pack travels in coir from Coimbatore instead of plastic bubble wrap. They are shipped across India.
