PURVA Founder Story
Hi, I'm Sue Prathi, founder of PURVA.
I was born and raised in India in a vegetarian family where every meal was made from scratch using fresh, wholesome, and natural ingredients. Food was more than nourishment—it was an expression of love, tradition, and togetherness.
Some of my fondest childhood memories are of coming home from school and spending time in the kitchen, watching my mother prepare hearty meals with incredible devotion and care. Summers were especially memorable, as families gathered to prepare staples such as pickles, spice blends, and chutneys that would last throughout the year. These traditions taught me the value of real ingredients, thoughtful preparation, and the joy that food brings to our lives.
After my mother passed away, I moved away from home and eventually settled in the United States. As I explored grocery stores and searched for convenient vegetarian options, I was surprised by how many products contained long ingredient lists filled with additives, preservatives, and ingredients that were difficult to recognize or understand.
Determined to continue the traditions I grew up with, I made a commitment to prepare my meals from scratch. Since I had learned mostly by observing my mother in the kitchen, I relied on memory to recreate the dishes she made. Over time, through practice, patience, and persistence, I refined those recipes and developed a deeper appreciation for the art and science of cooking.
In 2025, after a successful professional career, I decided to take a leap of faith and pursue a long-held dream: bringing the authentic flavors and wholesome ingredients of my childhood to families everywhere. That dream became PURVA!
PURVA means "wholesome" in Sanskrit, reflecting our commitment to creating products made with simple, premium ingredients and inspired by traditional recipes. Our goal is to make it easy for people to enjoy delicious, nourishing foods without compromising on quality, taste, or convenience.
Today, PURVA offers carefully crafted mixes that help consumers create bakery-style cookies, cozy chai lattes, and flavorful meals right from their own kitchens.
Our Rice Pilaf Mixes, Cookie mixes and Chai Latte Blends are made with real ingredients and contain no artificial preservatives, flavors, or colors. Our Cookie Mixes are made with protein-rich chickpea flour, delivering approximately 30–45 grams of protein per bag.
We believe that eating well and treating yourself should not be mutually exclusive. Food should be delicious, nutritious, convenient, and made with ingredients you trust.
That's why PURVA products are crafted to be:
Preservative-Free
Gluten-Free
Vegan
Vegetarian
Made with Real Ingredients
