Chevda and sev Gujarati farsan from Pooja Foods

Pure Veg Diwali Snacks: Chevda, Gathia, Chakri and More

Sweets may be the stars of Diwali, but no festive table is complete without farsan – the crunchy, spiced savoury snacks that guests reach for between every cup of chai. At Pooja Foods we make our farsan fresh in Wellingborough, and every snack is pure vegetarian – no egg, no meat, no fish.

Here is our full Diwali snack line-up, with prices, so you can stock up for visitors, puja and family get-togethers. Unless stated otherwise, each pack is 200g.
