Frequently Asked Questions

Q. What is nankhatai and how is yours different from standard versions?

Nankhatai is a traditional Indian shortbread biscuit — crumbly, melt-in-mouth, lightly spiced, made with ghee. Most modern bakeries now use maida and refined sugar. Ours uses the original recipe — whole wheat atta and besan (gram flour), pure desi ghee, sweetened with khand, and topped with real pistachios. The way your dadi used to make it.

Q. Is this suitable for festival gifting like Diwali or Eid?

This is our #1 gifting product during Diwali, Eid, Holi, and Rakhi. The combination of traditional recipe, real pistachios, and no artificial ingredients makes it a meaningful and healthy gift. Custom gift boxes available — contact us on WhatsApp.

Q. What is the shelf life?

12 days at room temperature in an airtight container. These last longer than most fresh baked goods because ghee acts as a natural preservative.

Q. Are there any allergens I should know about?

Pistachio Nankhatai contains wheat (whole wheat atta), besan (chickpea flour), pistachios, and desi ghee. Not suitable for nut allergies or gluten intolerances.

Q. Is besan used along with wheat? What is the ratio?

Yes — a traditional nankhatai recipe uses both whole wheat atta and besan. The gram flour gives a distinct crumbly, melt-in-mouth texture that you cannot achieve with wheat alone. This is what separates real nankhatai from ordinary biscuits.

Q. Can these be ordered in bulk for weddings or corporate events?

Yes, we take bulk orders for weddings, corporate gifting, and festive events. Contact us on WhatsApp with your quantity and date — we advise placing bulk orders at least 5–7 days in advance.
