The Inspiration Behind Pishori Pista
Gaagar Sweets is redefining luxury this Diwali with its Gold Label Pishori Pista priced at ₹24,000 per kg, the most expensive Diwali sweet in Bhopal. Made with the finest Pishori pistachios imported from Pakistan’s Paschin district, this sweet is one of a kind. The vibrant green colour of these rare pistas, known for their taste and nutrition, adds to the exclusivity of this sweet.
In a twist on the traditional recipe, the sweet is sweetened with stevia, a natural plant-based substitute from South America. This makes it a conscious choice for health-conscious consumers and adds a refreshing sweetness without added sugars. “We wanted to make this sweet with stevia because it is of a kind, and as people enjoy it, they should not be guilty of consuming sugar, and that too when it is so expensive. It is our way to say that we care about the heritage and health of people in Bhopal and all our customers,” say the team at Gaagar Sweets.
Ayurvedic influences shine in this luxurious treat, with small amounts of gold and silver added for their believed health benefits. Topped with gold vark, saffron, and Pishori pistachios, this Gold Label creation is a feast for the eyes. The box also includes rose-flavoured dry fruit laddoos, garnished with Pishori pista, for an extra indulgent touch.
To crown it all, the Pishori Pista is presented in a stunning box adorned with Gond art by Padma Shri awardees Venkat Raman Singh Shyam and Durga Bai Vyam. This collaboration with renowned artists infuses the festive gift with Madhya Pradesh's tribal heritage, elevating the sweet from a luxury delicacy to a meaningful keepsake. In Bhopal, sweets go beyond flavour—they carry stories. For Diwali, they’ve woven in the symbolism of the cow as Goddess Lakshmi, a figure of prosperity and abundance, beautifully depicted in the artwork to celebrate the spirit of the season.
The packaging is a tribute to the Gond designs, which are famous for their stories and cultural importance. As you relish this luxury, you are also supporting local art, so Pishori Pista is a gift that goes beyond taste, a gift that makes Diwali special and significant.
