On Ganesh Chaturthi morning, the modak plate goes up right after the idol — it's said to be Ganesha's favourite sweet, and no sthapana feels complete without one at his feet. Laddu isn't far behind; motichoor especially shows up in Ganesha's hand in half the idols made each year. Together, they're as much a part of the festival as the aarti itself.

Ganesh Chaturthi falls on Monday, September 14, 2026, with the Chaturthi Tithi starting around 7:06 AM. The Madhyahna muhurat for sthapana usually falls late morning to early afternoon, but timing shifts by location — check your city's panchang before the puja.

Families observing the full ten-day Ganeshotsav will immerse the idol on Anant Chaturdashi, Friday, September 25, 2026. Many Bangalore homes keep it shorter — 1.5, 3, 5, or 7 days — depending on family tradition.

Modak is prepared as bhog, traditionally offered in a count of 21 before anyone else eats, its shape said to represent a coconut — a symbol of prosperity. Laddu has no fixed count; it's the sweet pressed into a child's hand the moment the visarjan procession begins.

This also makes the ten days one of our busiest mithai stretches of the year, right alongside Diwali and Rakhi — whether you're hosting a pandal, a society sthapana, or your own home puja, the sweets are half the planning.

This year we've expanded our modak lineup to seven varieties — the traditional flavours for the puja, plus a few newer ones for those who want dessert rather than just prasad. Available in-store and online.

1. Motichur Modak    
2. Besan Modak
3. Kesar Modak
4. Koya Modak
5. Chocolate Modak
6. Coconut Modak
7. Dry Fruit Modak

Prefer a modak-and-laddu prasad
box instead of a mixed assortment? Tell us the headcount and whether it's for
the puja or for distribution afterward, and we'll build one to match — the
easiest route for a pandal or building-wide sthapana ordering as one coordinated
batch.

We deliver fresh across Bangalore from our Marathahalli, Kasavanahalli, Panathur, and Varthur stores, and also offer USA deliveries for families marking Ganeshotsav abroad.

Prefer to pick up fresh instead? Walk into any of our four Bangalore stores:

• Marathahalli
• Kasavanahalli
• Panathur
• Varthur Main Road

Organising a public or housing-society pandal? We take on bulk orders built around a schedule — prasad for sthapana day, more for visarjan, sometimes a daily batch across the ten days — with pricing and packaging adjusted for pandal-scale quantities.

Ganesh Chaturthi has also become a common workplace gifting moment, especially for teams with a strong Maharashtrian, Konkani, or South Indian presence. We do corporate bulk orders with customizable sweet selections and delivery timelines built around your office schedule.

Call or SMS/WhatsApp our catering manager on +91 97411 25367 for pandal, bulk, or corporate gifting orders.

Can I order modak and sweets online?

Yes — this year's seven modak varieties are available in-store and online. You can also call or WhatsApp our catering manager on +91 97411 25367 to place a custom order.

Do you deliver outside Bangalore?

We deliver fresh within Bangalore from our four stores and also offer USA deliveries for families celebrating Ganeshotsav abroad.

How early should I place my order?

At least a few days ahead is a safe window, and earlier for pandal, society, or corporate bulk orders, since this ten-day stretch is one of our busiest of the year.
