What Are Snacks?
A snack is a small portion of food enjoyed between meals, on the go, during a work break, or while entertaining guests. People reach for snacks whenever they want something convenient and flavourful. Good snacks come in many forms: savoury and sweet, crunchy and light, baked, roasted, popped, and traditional. Whether you are making tea for the family, packing a travel bag, or setting out a bowl for movie night, the right snack makes the moment better.
Types of Snacks Available at Urban Platter
Our snacks collection brings together traditional Indian favourites, light puffs and chips, roasted options, and international treats.
Baked Bhujia and Traditional Indian Snacks
Our baked bhujia range includes Mast Masala, Pudina, and Ratlami flavours, along with jowar bhujia varieties. They are savoury, crunchy, and well suited to tea-time and everyday snacking. For something different, try our baked bhakri in Coriander Chilli, Methi, and Masala flavours.
Puffs and Popped Snacks
Puffs and popped snacks have a light, crunchy texture. The collection includes salted jowar puffs, quinoa millet puffs in flavours like Pizza Party and Chaat Corner, jowar millet puffs in Cream and Onion, and cheddar cheese chickpea puffs. Popped chickpea chips come in Garlic and Herb and Barbecue flavours.
Crisps, Chips, and Rice-Based Snacks
For quick snacking, parties, and movie time, there are plenty of crisps and chips to choose from. Our Scoopers crisps come in Good Ol' Garlic, Original Indian, and Multigrain Munchie, and chickpea scoopers are available in a Korean Buldak flavour. Rice chips come in sesame, wasabi, and sweet chilli, and the collection also includes crunchy cheese balls.
Roasted and Salted Snacks
Roasted and salted snacks are savoury and ready to eat straight from the pack. Choose from boiled and salted peanuts, roasted salted 3-in-1 soybeans, roasted salted edamame, and giant inka corn kernels, which are salted and roasted. They come in small packs for carrying and larger jars for sharing.
Coconut and Fruit-Based Snacks
For a sweet or tangy bite, try our crispy coconut chips and aam (mango) papad. Kachha aam (raw mango) papad adds a tangier option. These snacks work well for a change of pace from salty bites.
International and Gourmet Snacks
Our gourmet picks include truffle ruffled potato chips and truffle banana chips, which blend sweet and savoury. Pretzel lovers can explore salted mini pretzel knots, large pretzel knots, and mini pretzel sticks. Flavoured pretzels, such as Korean BBQ and Mexican Chilli, add a bold twist.
Mukhwas, Chocolates, and Sweet Snacks
For something sweet or refreshing, the collection also features paan-flavoured raisins, dark chocolate dipped pretzels, and a selection of nut, seed, and fruit bars. These work well beside savoury products when you want a sweet finish or a post-meal bite.
