Ganesh Chaturthi gifts: eggless cookie tins for family visits
Ganesh Chaturthi falls in the month of Bhadrapada, in August or September, and the celebrations run for up to ten days before the visarjan on Anant Chaturdashi. In Karnataka the festival starts a day earlier with Gowri Habba. The days in between are full of visits to family, and to friends who have brought an idol home.
Modak, said to be Ganesha's favourite sweet, belongs on the puja plate. A cookie tin is for everything around it: something to carry when you visit, or to send to family you cannot visit this year.
In short
Every cookie we bake is eggless, and our kitchens do not use eggs. Order in the morning for same-day delivery in Bengaluru or Chennai, or send the Chocolate Chip, Nutella or Biscoff tin by courier to another city a few days ahead.
Why eggless matters during the festival
Many families keep their kitchen vegetarian through the festival days. Every cookie at A Dough Cookie is eggless and our kitchens are kept egg-free, so a tin from us can go into any home you visit.
If you plan to offer the cookies as naivedya at the puja itself, ask us for the full ingredient list first. Call +91 88616 57617 or message us on WhatsApp.
Gift ideas for Ganesh Chaturthi
For a family visit
One cookie tin, sliced and ready to share with whoever is in the house. The Nutella (₹600) and Biscoff (₹850) tins are the richest of our four, and the Chocolate Chip tin (₹500) suits a house with children.
For pandal volunteers or your housing society
A box of eight cookies (₹600), picked from the whole menu, is easy to pass around a group. It is made for same-day delivery in Bengaluru and Chennai. If you need several boxes, ask for a quote through our gift hampers and boxes page.
For family in another city
The Chocolate Chip, Nutella and Biscoff tins travel by courier to most of India. Order a few days before you want it to arrive; checkout shows the expected delivery date for their PIN code.
For the office
If your team celebrates at work, corporate gifting can put your company's logo on the sleeves and deliver every box on the same day.
Ordering during the festival
Same-day delivery in Bengaluru and Chennai is confirmed at checkout for your address before you pay. If it cannot be confirmed, the order is not taken. Orders placed late in the evening go out on the next baking day, so order in the morning for an evening visit.
To add a festival greeting, turn on "Send this as a gift" at checkout. You get gift wrap and a handwritten card with your message.
After Ganesh Chaturthi
Diwali is the next big gifting season. The same tins work for Diwali visits, and our gift hampers and boxes cover larger family and office orders.
