Rakhi season is here, and Ahmedabad’s dessert and gifting scene is going all out. We scouted the city and picked seven brands that are actually worth your pre-order. From handcrafted hampers to personalised cookie tins, here’s your cheat sheet.
1. 7 Violettes
7Violettes is going big with its Festive Hamper Box, and it comes in multiple combos. Type A packs a Motichoor Pistachio Tub, London’s Viral Caramel Chocolate Cake, a Lemon Blueberry Tea Cake, and a butter croissant.
Type B swaps in a French-biscuit dark chocolate tub alongside the tea cake and croissant. There’s also a separate hamper line with Type A, B, and C combos mixing the Caramel Chocolate Tub, Tiramisu Cherry Tub, French Biscuit Dark Chocolate Tub, and Motichoor Pistachio Tub in different pairings.
If you’d rather build your own, individual tubs (approx. 200 g each) are up for grabs too. Pick from Motichoor Pistachio, Tiramisu Cherry, London’s Viral Caramel Chocolate, or French Biscuit Dark Chocolate.
Pre-orders are open now, and the hampers land on Swiggy and Zomato on the 27th and 28th. You’ll find them at Navrangpura and SBR. Call 079 4032 5629 or 87582 03867 to book yours.
2. Koko’s Dessert
Koko’s just dropped its Rakhi ’26 collection, and it’s stacked. Think Assorted Brownie Boxes, a Box of 2 Pudding Cups, and a Premium Gifting Box built around 500 g tubs. Every order comes with a personalised photo card, a Rakhi holder card, and premium gift packaging thrown in.
So you’re not scrambling for extras. Their Decorative Brownie Box (300 gm, Nutella or Biscoff) is priced at ₹450 against an MRP of ₹545, and the Assorted Brownie Box (6 pc, Nutella & Biscoff) comes in at ₹450 too. The Pudding Cups box (choose any 2, 100 ml each) is ₹400. Just keep in mind, the festive pricing is only valid till 20th August, so don’t sit on this one.
3. Shree Prasadam
Shree Prasadam is doing something genuinely new this year.
Personalised photo printing on cookie tins, a first for Ahmedabad. You can also add a personalised message to any hamper, which makes for a properly thoughtful gift. On top of that, they’ve rolled out a Kids Special Edition Hamper range, because siblings under 12 deserve hampers too. Everything is fully customisable, and they deliver PAN India. Reach out on 8980593216 to get started.
4. Cocoa Dramma
Cocoa Dramma keeps it simple and elegant: handcrafted treats, premium gifting, and custom options if you want to build something personal. Their catalogue includes a Bombolini Gift Box (₹525, box of 4 with Biscoff, Chocolate Overload, Pistachio, and Nutella flavours).
A Macaron Gift Box (₹660, box of 6), a Gluten-Free Cookie Box (₹595, box of 6), a Dessert Jar Gift Bag (₹675, with Tiramisu and Chocolate Matilda jars), and a 4-Jar Belgian Chocolate Gift Box (₹1450). They also offer custom hamper baskets, so you can mix and match your favourite Cocoa Dramma treats into one basket. Pre-orders are open, so book early before slots fill up.
5. Grid
Grid’s Rakhi hampers lean savoury and sweet. Salato (₹2400) brings artisanal pappardelle pasta, an Italian mix, pasta shell crisps, chilli oil, and marinara sauce. Dolce (₹2400) is the dessert-forward pick with 2 cake tubs, 2 cookies, and chocolate salted caramel tarts.
You get to choose your cake tub flavour. Butter Lovers (₹2000) is all about a lavash tub, mini butters, roasted bell pepper hummus, and brioche buns. And Piccolo (₹1400) is the smaller, budget-friendly version with a cake tub, cookie, and pasta shell crisps.
6. Gwalia Sweets
A Rakhi list wouldn’t be complete without Gwalia. Since 1994, they’ve been the go-to for festive sweets, and this year’s 50+ Rakhi hampers start at just ₹349. Expect sweets, festive Ghevar, and beautifully packed gift boxes across every outlet in the city.
7. Ananda
For the family that’d rather celebrate over a meal, Ananda is worth booking. Pre-book your Rakhi lunch or dinner and let them handle the festive spread while you focus on the celebration. Check Ananda on Instagram for their festive menu and booking details.
Whether you’re gifting, eating, or doing both. Ahmedabad’s got Rakhi covered this year.
