National, November 2, 2026: As consumers increasingly seek more engaging and convenient snacking experiences, PepsiCo India is extending two of its iconic brands into new ready-to-eat formats with the launch of Doritos Loaded Nachos Kit and Kurkure Mast Bhel Kit Chinese Style. The easy-to-assemble offerings bring restaurant-style loaded nachos and a Desi-Chinese twist on bhel into the home, offering consumers an easy way to enjoy snack favourites without preparing them from scratch.
Rooted in PepsiCo India’s consumer-centric approach to innovation, the launches mark an expansion beyond conventional, individual snacking occasions into more interactive, shared experiences at home, offering consumers more snacking choices for every occasion. While Doritos brings together its signature crunch with three accompaniments for a restaurant-style loaded nachos experience, Kurkure gives the much-loved bhel a Desi-Chinese twist, combining the familiar crunch of Kurkure Shots and Jowar Crisps with bold Schezwan and Manchurian sauces.
Designed for a range of social occasions all-round the year, from movie nights and house parties to casual get-togethers, the kits arrive during the festive season, when families and friends have even more reasons to come together. Both kits can be assembled and customized in minutes, bringing together convenience, flavour and the enjoyment of preparing and sharing snacks with others.
Commenting on the new offerings, Sriram Iyer, Marketing Director – Quaker, Red Rock Deli and White Space Innovations, PepsiCo India, said, “Doritos and Kurkure are two iconic brands that have built a strong connection with consumers through their distinctive flavours and crunch. These launches offer an exciting way to enjoy them at home, with Doritos bringing the restaurant-style loaded nachos experience and Kurkure giving the popular street-style bhel a Desi-Chinese twist. Both offerings build on what consumers already love about the brands and reflect our focus on identifying emerging consumption occasions, making snacking more interactive across moments. By launching through e-commerce and quick-commerce platforms, we are also making these new formats more accessible across the country, while responding to evolving shopping habits and the growing role of digital commerce in product discovery.”
