About Fasting (Faraal) Essentials
Choosing the right snack during upvaas (fasting) is tough when you want to avoid refined oils and heavy additives. We prepare our faraal using traditional techniques—baking and slow-roasting instead of deep-frying—to ensure you stay light and energized throughout the day without the post-snack slump.
Why Choose Our Faraal Range
Most store-bought fasting snacks are heavily processed, often using palm oil or excessive additives to keep them shelf-stable. We do things the old-school way. Whether you are observing Shravan, Maha Shivratri, or Ekadashi, your fasting diet should provide real nourishment, not empty calories.
Our Clean Approach
- Baked, Not Fried: We prioritize baking our snacks like Rajgira Sticks and Farali Bhakri, giving you that satisfying crunch without the heavy feeling.
- Quality Ingredients: We use wood-pressed groundnut oil for our Chivda and Sticks, ensuring no refined palm oil enters your kitchen.
- No Maida or Refined Sugar: Our entire fasting range is free from maida and refined sugar. We rely on the natural sweetness of ingredients and traditional grain flours.
How to Enjoy
These snacks are not just for fasting days. Many of our customers keep our Sabudana Sticks or Masala Ratalu Chips handy for their daily tea-time cravings. They are light, wholesome, and completely guilt-free. Since everything is made in small batches, we ensure the freshness and 'ghar-jaisa' taste in every pack. If you are planning for a festival, we recommend ordering a few days in advance to ensure availability.
