Taste of Brasil 2026, an international food and culinary initiative led by ApexBrasil, officially made its India debut on 18 February 2026 in New Delhi. The initiative will also be introduced in Mumbai on 23 February 2026, bringing Brazil’s premium food offerings closer to India’s rapidly expanding health and wellness market.
The New Delhi launch was attended by key dignitaries including Jorge Viana, President of ApexBrasil; Paulo Teixeira, Honourable Minister of Rural Development and Family Farming of Brazil; and Marcio Elias, Honourable Vice Minister of Development, Industry, Commerce and Services of Brazil. The event also saw participation from industry stakeholders, importers, distributors, retailers, chefs, and members of the media.
Taste of Brasil 2026 focuses on building awareness, encouraging product trials, and strengthening trade and consumer engagement through immersive retail experiences and culinary storytelling. The campaign aims to create a deeper connection between Brazilian producers and Indian consumers by showcasing the quality, versatility, and story behind Brazilian food products.
Brazil, known for its vast biodiversity and fertile landscapes, produces some of the world’s most nutritious nuts, fruits, and superfoods. From the Amazon rainforest to tropical orchards, Brazilian foods are recognised for their taste, nutritional value, and suitability for modern, health-focused lifestyles.
The initiative highlights a carefully selected range of Brazilian products including Brazil Nuts, Brazil Nut Milk, Açaí Pulp, Açaí Powder, Tahiti Limes, and Exotic Frozen plant-based meals. These products reflect Brazil’s leadership in biodiversity-driven agriculture and its strong reputation for quality, safety, and sustainability on the global stage.
Ingredients such as Brazil nuts and açaí have gained international popularity for their health benefits and flexibility across cuisines. With Indian consumers increasingly leaning towards plant-based nutrition, functional foods, and global flavours, Brazilian products align naturally with evolving food preferences in the country.
Speaking at the launch, Mr. Jorge Viana said, “India represents a dynamic and fast-growing market with a sophisticated and increasingly health-conscious consumer base. Through Taste of Brasil 2026, we are proud to present the diversity, quality, and sustainability of Brazilian food products. This initiative is not only about promoting exports; it is about building long-term partnerships, promoting sustainability and innovation in food, and strengthening the bridge between Brazilian producers and Indian consumers.”
Adding to this, José Mauro da Fonseca Costa Couto, Consul General of Brazil in Mumbai, remarked, “Brazil and India share strong diplomatic and economic relations rooted in mutual respect and cooperation. The launch of Taste of Brasil 2026 in both New Delhi and Mumbai reflects our commitment to deepening agri-food trade and enhancing people-to-people connections through culinary exchange. We see tremendous potential for collaboration across retail, hospitality, and food processing sectors.”
Looking ahead, ApexBrasil plans to further strengthen trade ties between Brazil and India by expanding market access, increasing retail presence, and encouraging culinary innovation. With rising demand for sustainable, plant-based, and globally inspired foods, Taste of Brasil 2026 lays the groundwork for long-term partnerships and a stronger Brazilian food presence in India.

CaratLane – A TATA Product is making a strong presence across television screens in India with its latest Mother’s Day campaign featuring brand ambassador Yami Gautam Dhar. The campaign brings a fresh and emotional take on gifting, centred around the idea of celebrating mothers with diamonds as a symbol of love and gratitude, while also adding a thoughtful twist, gifting yourself a diamond too, because you are her favourite.
The campaign’s first two films gained wide visibility during the ongoing Indian Premier League, with placements across Star Sports and JioHotstar. This was further supported by regional reach through channels like Colours Tamil, Jalsha Movies and Star Utsav Movies, helping the brand connect with audiences across both national and regional markets. Released just in time for Mother’s Day, the campaign highlights the joy of choosing something special for mothers, along with a little something for oneself.
Shaifali Gautam, CMO – CaratLane, remarked, “As we return for our second season advertising on the Indian Premier League, the platform allows us to take our stories to millions of households across the country. This Mother’s Day, with Yami at the centre, we’ve focused on celebrating the emotion of gifting in a way that feels both personal and relatable. Because when it comes to a mother’s love, what you share is priceless and the pieces you choose to express it should feel just as special. At CaratLane, we believe that expressing love should feel effortless, and never out of reach.”
Built around thoughtful gifting, the campaign encourages customers to celebrate Mother’s Day with meaningful diamond jewellery. With initiatives like this, CaratLane continues to shape fine jewellery for today’s consumers, making it more personal, easy to wear, and suitable for every special moment.

As Mother's Day approaches, the focus shifts to celebrating the quiet strength, care, and everyday moments that define motherhood. This year, Candere, a lifestyle jewellery brand from Kalyan Jewellers, offers a curated selection designed to feel personal, wearable, and meaningful.
Moving beyond occasion-based gifting, the collection highlights jewellery that seamlessly fits into everyday life, pieces that reflect her individuality while adding understated elegance to daily moments. Each design balances simplicity with thoughtful detailing, making it both timeless and versatile.
The edit includes the Rylie Diamond and Fancy Gemstone Ring, a floral-inspired design that combines vibrant pink stones with delicate diamond accents, bringing a playful yet refined touch. For those who prefer minimalism, the Plain Glimmer Diamond V Ring offers clean lines and subtle sparkle, perfect for stacking or wearing solo.
Adding to the collection is the Classic Treand Diamond Cuff Bracelet, featuring twin motifs with blue stones and diamond detailing, designed to elevate both everyday and occasion wear. The Enchanting Floral Diamond and Fancy Gemstone Oval Bracelet introduces a softer, more playful aesthetic with multicoloured gemstones set against a sleek band.
For statement pieces, the Armida Diamond Earrings stand out with their layered, cascading form that catches light with movement, while the Giselle Diamond Dangle Earrings bring effortless elegance through a graceful drop design and refined brilliance.
With this Mother’s Day edit, Candere focuses on jewellery that feels natural rather than extravagant, pieces that become part of her daily story while holding emotional value. The collection reflects a shift towards gifting that is thoughtful, personal, and enduring, making each piece more than just an accessory.
On April 25, EL at JW Marriott Mumbai Sahar hosted an exclusive and intimate fashion showcase by designer Sounia Gohil, unveiling her latest collection in association with Volvo, presented by Cedamint by Vinay Singh.
Breaking away from the conventions of a traditional runway, the showcase embraced a more immersive and interactive format. Set against Mumbai’s skyline, EL offered a fluid, open environment where guests could experience the collection at their own pace. Models moved seamlessly through the space, allowing attendees to engage with the garments up close, creating a sense of intimacy rarely seen in conventional showcases.
The evening brought together a diverse mix of guests, from fashion insiders and tastemakers to patrons of luxury mobility and hospitality, reflecting a dynamic convergence of industries. The experience was complemented by a refined food and beverage selection, thoughtfully curated to enhance the evening without overshadowing the showcase.
More than a fashion presentation, the event highlighted a broader shift in how hospitality spaces are being reimagined. EL, known for its elevated dining and panoramic views, is steadily evolving into a multi-dimensional cultural venue that embraces fashion, design, music, and curated social experiences.
With this showcase, JW Marriott Mumbai Sahar strengthens its positioning as not just a hospitality destination but a platform for creative expression and community-led experiences in the city.
Commenting on the initiative, Sachin Mylavarapu, General Manager at JW Marriott Mumbai Sahar, said, “At JW Marriott Mumbai Sahar, we’re increasingly looking at how our spaces can go beyond traditional hospitality to become platforms for culture and creativity. Hosting this showcase at EL was a natural extension of that vision. We’re delighted to curate experiences that are refined, progressive, and engaging for our guests.”
Located close to Mumbai’s international and domestic airports, JW Marriott Mumbai Sahar offers 588 well-appointed rooms, multiple dining destinations, and expansive event spaces. Its venues, including Romano’s, JW Café, BarQat, and AUTM – JW Lounge & EL, reflect the city’s diverse culinary landscape. The property also features Spa by JW, offering holistic wellness experiences.
Part of Marriott International, the hotel aligns with a global portfolio of over 9,500 properties across 144 countries, continuing to bring world-class hospitality experiences to India
