Maggi has been an integral part of the lives of millions of Indians for four decades. The leading instant noodle brand from Nestlé has expanded its footprint in the spices category. The brand believes that while Indian cooking tradition remains anchored in our love for fresh food and century-old recipes, it is being silently transformed. The brand deeply understands this transformation and sees evolving consumer need for extraordinary taste in food and the increasing reliance on digital ecosystems for daily cooking.
Their understanding of the Indian consumer palate has helped the brand to create the perfect masala offering, in the form of MAGGI Masala-ae-Magic that they believe has the power to enhance the taste of food that a mother cooks for her family.
Through its partnership with the spice farmers, Maggi has created Masala-ae-Magic, which aims to bring a positive difference in daily cooking. As per the brand, Masala-ae-Magic reaches out to approximately 10 million households in the country.
Masala-ae-Magic by Maggi is the first-ever fortified taste enhancer that can be used across different cuisines in India. It is not a simple masala but is unique in that it efficiently enhances the taste inherent in the food ingredients already present.
It is specifically fortified with Iron, Vitamin A & Iodine which are known to be widespread deficiencies in India.
Everyday food now becomes delicious & healthier in 2 simple steps:
1. Cook Dish as you normally do
2. Add 1 sachet 2-3 minutes before taking off the flame and stir well
Maggi’s Objectives
Maggi’s attempt, all these years, has been to provide convenience and taste to its consumers and is worldwide known for innovation and quality. The brand understands that consumers are usually under great pressure regarding time, budget, taste, cooking skills, etc, and therefore tries to establish a bond by giving ideas and advice that make providing food easier.

Maggi wanted to position Masala-ae-Magic as a taste enhancer masala for every dish. With Facebook Communities being the largest conversation forum in India (& the world), Maggi explored partnering with Convosight to reach out to communities and drive meaningful conversations and consideration of the product while showcasing the Masala-ae-Magic amplification in daily regional dishes.

To achieve this, we selected the most relevant 88 communities around food and recipes with over 8.5 million members.
