Gift ideas (₹5,000+)
1Cakes & Bakes
Made-to-order and photo cakes, designed with you.

- Not for: someone who's diabetic or avoiding sugar

2Kitchen & Dining
A well-liked big-ticket gift — only for people who cook.
- Before you buy: match the capacity to the household: around 2–3 litres suits one or two people; 4 litres or more suits a family.
- Not for: someone who rarely cooks, or has a very small kitchen

3Experiences
A class they'll enjoy on the day and cook from for years.

- Not for: someone who finds cooking a chore
How to choose, and all sellers →
4Hampers
Teas or coffees with a mug, cookies or snacks, boxed together.
- Before you buy: find out tea or coffee first, and how they make it: a filter-coffee drinker won't want instant, and a masala-chai drinker may not want green tea.
- Not for: someone cutting down on caffeine, unless the box has herbal tea

5Kitchen & Dining
Useful and lasting — check they haven't been given three.
- Before you buy: count the pieces and what's in them — a '24-piece set' can be six each of four items, with no bowls for dal.
- Not for: a couple who've already been given several sets
