For 28-year-old Anjali Verma, Diwali has always been more than just the lights, the rangolis, or the excitement of new clothes. It’s the time of year when her family home in Lucknow fills with the aroma of sweets—especially the unmistakable khushboo of Shyaam Swaad’s motichoor laddoos, a treat that has become a tradition in her household.

“I remember every Diwali, my dad would bring home a box of Shyam Swaad’s sweets, and it wasn’t just the laddoos,” Anjali says with a smile. “The box would always have a mix—kaju barfi for my mother, kaju mix namkeen for those looking for something savoury, and a little of everything else in their assorted bites.”

Even now, despite living in another city, Anjali returns to Lucknow each Diwali to relive the sweet tradition. “There’s something comforting about knowing that no matter where I am, those same flavours are waiting for me when I come home,” she shares. And it’s not just the sweets—Shyam Swaad’s Lucknowi chaat is also a big hit in her family.

“For me, Diwali isn’t complete without that first bite of Shyam Swaad’s kaju barfi or sneaking a spoonful of the kaju mix namkeen before dinner,” Anjali laughs.

As Diwali in Lucknow approaches, families like Anjali’s are preparing for the festivities, and Shyaam Swaad is ready to add that extra sweetness to everyone’s celebrations. With their best-selling sweets, savoury snacks, and festive classics, Lucknowites know they can always count on Shyam Swaad to make their Diwali special—and truly Diwali-ready!

And hold on, even if you can't make it to Lucknow this Diwali, you can still enjoy the sweets and namkeen from Shyam Swaad through its courier service and enjoy all the love that comes with it!
