1Personalised GiftsEngraved plaques & keepsakes₹800 – ₹3,500Works only if the engraving says something specific.
- Before you buy: write the exact text first — names, dates and the one line that makes it theirs. Generic lines are what make these feel like office stock.
- Not for: someone who dislikes clutter and has nowhere to display things
2Cakes & BakesCake combos & hampers₹1,200 – ₹3,000A cake bundled with chocolates, flowers or a small gift.
- Before you buy: check the same-day cut-off time and the delivery slot — same-day usually means ordering by a set hour.
- Not for: someone who's diabetic or cutting sugar — send flowers or a non-food gift
3- Before you buy: order at least a day or two ahead — detailed designs take time, and good bakers book up before festivals and weekends.
- Not for: someone who's diabetic or avoiding sugar
4Gourmet & FoodDry fruit boxes₹500 – ₹3,000The classic Diwali and corporate gift — freshness matters.
- Before you buy: check the packing date and pick the freshest stock — nuts go stale, and walnuts turn rancid fastest.
- Not for: someone with a nut allergy

5Flowers & PlantsIndoor plants₹150 – ₹3,000For the home: easy-care plants, statement plants and bonsai.
- Before you buy: match the plant to their light: a dim flat needs a snake plant or ZZ, not a fiddle-leaf fig.
- Not for: someone who travels a lot, or has no light at home
