Ganesh Chaturthi & Vinayaka Chavithi 2026

Wednesday, September 14, 2026. Celebrated across India as Ganesh Chaturthi in Maharashtra, Gujarat, Karnataka and North India, Vinayaka Chavithi in Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Tamil Nadu, and by Hindu families worldwide including the USA, UK, Canada, Australia, and EU diaspora. The festival marks the birth of Lord Ganesha and runs 10-11 days with the visarjan on September 24.

Modak is Bappa's most beloved offering · steamed rice-flour dumplings filled with jaggery and coconut. Modak-family sweets like Bellam Kajjikayalu (Karanji), Kobbari Vundalu (Coconut Laddu), and Bobbatlu (Puran Poli) are traditional prasadam across Maharashtra, Andhra, and Karnataka households. Motichur Laddu, Boondi Laddu, Besan Laddu, Bellam Sunnundalu, and Kaju Katli are offered widely across all regions. Our Ganesh Chaturthi collection carries all of these · sourced from India's finest mithai houses.
