You don't need a reason to gift chocolates or desserts. Even though the New Year celebrations are way behind us, the first festival in the Indian calendar is this Friday. Called Sankranti or Pongal in South India and Lohri in the North, the harvest festival is reason enough to give something special to your loved ones. In addition to the traditional yellu-bella (sesame and jaggery) and gajak sweets, we say go uber-luxurious with our pick of five chocolate and dessert brands that are offering something unique. 

Smoor
Take home the Luxury Couverture Chocolate box that is a box of 12 rich chocolates made of cocoa butter. If you are looking out for a variety of chocolate flavours, Luxe Chocolates (hamper) is the best option.
