Crafted in the shape of a giant commemorative stamp,
This design celebrates Food, Memory & Meaning.
It is a tribute to everyday food nostalgia,
from connecting over family feasts to sharing our favourite street-side snacks;
worthy of being remembered, preserved, and passed on.

As the Stamp of Taste, the design includes popular Indian taste-makers like salt & pepper, chillies, lemons, and coriander, along with popular food items like momos and samosas
often paired with Coca-Cola in India.
Two hands sharing different kinds of food across a tumbler of Coca-Cola is a metaphor for connection and sharing, while actions like rolling bread and holding a spoon are a subtle nod to the relationship between human effort and human appreciation.
The golden ornamentation celebrates not just the brand headline
but the winner's name plate, placing them at the heart of this narrative, not just as a recipient,
But as a chapter in India’s ongoing culinary journey.
