About Custom Food Freeze-Drying & Packing Service

Why I Started

Travelling as a vegetarian, especially Jain, used to be a headache. Instant noodles and thepla-athaanu were my go-to, but honestly, bahut takleef hoti thi (it was tough). I wanted to make sure nobody has to compromise on their food while away from home.

How It Works

You bring your favourite home-cooked meals or restaurant dishes. I freeze-dry them - paani nikaal dete hain (remove the water) - and pack them in travel-friendly packets. No preservatives, no chemicals, just your food, ready to go. To eat, just add hot water, wait a few minutes, and bas, khana tayyar (food is ready).

What You Can Pack

Paneer Tikka Masala, Dal Tadka, Pav Bhaji, Veg Biryani, Dal Khichdi
Restaurant favourites, pure veg, Jain food

My Story

Hi, I’m Sheetal. Nine years back, I quit my air hostess job because vegetarian khana abroad milna mushkil tha, especially Jain food. Maggi aur theplas hi saviours the. My sister and I started this empire so people can eat pure, ghar ka khana anywhere. People doubted us, but now families enjoy our pav bhaji in helicopters, students get mom’s cooking in the US. Yeh jo pyaar milta hai, sab kuch hai.
