Raksha Bandhan Gifting Guide: 30 Gourmet Gifts For The Foodie Sibling

Raksha Bandhan, the festival of love (or shall I say obligatory love) between siblings. It's that classic annual tradition where you make up to your sibling for all the random yelling, all the times when you called shotgun on every single drive, switching off the fan or light for no good reason, or maybe for loving them madly, yet not needing to say it out loud. Tying a rakhi and getting a gift in return? Easily one of the most beautifully unbalanced exchanges ever. But hey, who's complaining? In the end, it’s really the gifts we care about (cue evil grin).

So, whether you're a sister or a brother, gifting is mandatory. And what’s better than gifting all things food and beverage! 

P.S. You get to steal it too! 

Mad Over Donuts

For that sibling who eats desserts like their life depends upon it, Mad Over Donuts has got 18 bite-sized doughnuts in nine irresistible flavours for easing out your rakhi gifting. Moreover, no fighting over the last bite because isn’t life better when you don’t have to share the last bite, and that too, with your very own sibling?
