As Rakshabandhan draws near on August 9, the search for thoughtful, tasteful gifting takes centre stage. This year, Klava, India’s first boutique baklava brand, invites you to sidestep the traditional with its Premium Assorted Baklava Box, an elegant, vegetarian alternative to conventional Indian sweets.

Handcrafted with finesse and packed with flavour, the 500g assorted box is a luxurious mix of time-honoured Middle Eastern confection and modern Indian aesthetics. It features:

  • Pistachio Baklava – Nutty, fragrant, and satisfyingly classic

  • Walnut & Cashew Baklava – Comforting, rich, and nostalgic

  • Chocolate Baklava – A decadent fusion of crisp pastry and velvety cocoa indulgence

Each piece is delicately layered with ultra-thin golden phyllo pastry, subtly sweetened, and crowned with premium nuts sourced from Gaziantep, Turkey, known as the gold standard of pistachios.
