Gifting ideas for Thaththi’s Day

View(s):

Next Sunday, we celebrate our first heroes, the ones who quietly encourage us to never give up on our hopes and dreams, the ones who also play an important role in who we become as adults— our fathers.

Father’s Day has a tendency to pass us by without the fanfare and pomp that Mother’s Day receives, but they do deserve the same treatment. So for this Father’s Day, the Sunday Times has curated a list of places where you can surprise your dad or father figures with something a little special to enjoy.

The Nuttery

“ Nuts are a wonderful choice for gifting, especially for fathers who’d love a crunchy, flavourful snack. Who doesn’t love some deviled cashews or salted peanuts to snack while watching a cricket match or the news,” say the founders of The Nuttery;  siblings Amjad and Azla along with Azla’s husband, Mifraz, who run this family-business.

“I was pregnant with my first child during the first lockdown in 2020 and we realized that getting my hands on quality nuts was difficult and at times, impossible; this birthed the Nuttery in June 2020: with the premise of easily available, high-quality nuts delivered to your home for an ever-growing local market,” shares Azla on how the Nuttery began.

As lovers of nuts themselves, they started the Nuttery with locally sourced Cashews and then expanded into other varieties of nuts, which customers can get raw, roasted or flavoured.

They also have a collection of seeds, seed mixes and dried fruits. In addition to these, they also have a range of premium chocolate coated nuts, sugar-free chocolate coated nuts, flavored almond dragée, almond truffles and sugar and gluten-free dark chocolate bars to fulfil all sweet cravings with zero guilt.

As their second anniversary falls this month, the Nuttery will be having some awesome offers and discounts to celebrate. This will help with getting something for your dad as well!

Their range of curated gift boxes and nut platters can be customized and personalized to fit our customers’ wishes. Customers can easily place an order on their website Nuttery.lk or check out their products on Instagram  (@thenutterylk)

Flour & Sucré

For the fathers who have an unbelievable sweet tooth and you want to treat them with something new and special; why not try out the Bombolonis by Flour & Sucré.

Unlike regular doughnuts, bombolinis are made with an enriched dough known as brioche and is made using slightly different methods to bring out the best of flavours in the final product, says founder Rifa Rizme.

These treats can be filled with Nutella, white chocolate, jam, custard and more. Made to order so that the bombolinis stay fresh as possible!

As the pioneers of wooden accessories here in Sri Lanka; their pieces are mostly handmade using fine teak, mahogany and birch wood by skilled craftsmen. Their accessories are sourced locally, making every one of them a masterpiece and of high quality!
