Distance is bearable until a festival arrives. We cannot put you at the table, but we can make sure the box gets there before everyone sits down.

Herbal gulal that clears customs — synthetic colours are refused as unclassified powders in most countries.

Before you buy it
Nothing sours a festival like a parcel of mithai being incinerated by biosecurity. These are the five we intercept most often, and what to send instead.
Fresh sweets with khoya or milk solids
Refused by AU, NZ and US as perishable dairy. Ship vacuum-packed dry mithai instead.
Synthetic Holi colours
Unclassified chemical powder — routinely destroyed. Certified herbal gulal clears.
Coconuts and fresh flowers for pooja
Live plant material is banned into most destinations without a phytosanitary certificate.
Sindoor and kumkum in loose form
Some lots test positive for lead. We ship sealed, tested, branded packs only.
Gold jewellery above the gift threshold
Becomes a dutiable import. We declare it properly and tell you the duty first.
Set a reminder once and we will tell you when the order-by date is a fortnight out.
