From Mohit, founder of Chau Foods

Raksha Bandhan is our second-biggest season after Diwali. Last year (2025), we shipped 1,847 Rakhi hampers in just three weeks leading up to the festival. What we learned: timing matters more than discount. Sisters who order by 25 July get stress-free delivery; those who order after 1 August face anxiety even with express shipping. So my honest founder's advice — order early, even if you do not finalize the recipient's address yet. We can hold dispatch for up to 7 days post-order. Another thing: the gold-foil personal message card is the detail most customers do not expect, and it is what makes our hampers stand out. I have read messages ranging from "Bhaiya you taught me to ride a cycle, this is for your sweet tooth" to "Didi, you raised me when Ma was sick — chote ka pyaar". This is what gifting is really about. Forget the discount codes, forget the metal boxes. Spend 2 extra minutes on a real message. That is what your sibling will remember.

Why Dry Fruits Are the Perfect Raksha Bandhan Gift in 2026

Raksha Bandhan is about love, health, and prosperity — and dry fruits embody all three:

✅ Symbolize prosperity — gifting nuts and dry fruits has been auspicious in Indian tradition for centuries

✅ Healthier than sweets — no added sugar, ghee, or maida

✅ Long shelf life — recipient can enjoy for weeks

✅ Premium look — beautifully packed, festive aesthetic

✅ Suits every age — kids, parents, grandparents all enjoy

✅ Diabetic-friendly options — perfect for elders

✅ Pan-India delivery — your sister/brother can be anywhere

In 2026, with India's growing health-consciousness, dry fruits have officially overtaken traditional mithai as the #1 preferred Raksha Bandhan gift (per FICCI gifting survey).

At Chau Foods, we get 1500+ Rakhi orders every year. Here's our curated list of the best hampers and ideas.
