Christmas and New Year Sale Video for Shops and Bakeries
Updated 9 Oct 2026
Ayka doesn't have a ready Christmas style yet. You can still make a Christmas or New Year sale video from one photo: describe the scene in 'Write your own' (for example, a Christmas tree and warm fairy lights behind your cake), or turn your offer poster into a video with Poster to Video. Both cost ₹149 (1 credit) at their default settings, and the video is usually ready in a few minutes.
Not a Christmas video: this is the Wedding Season Sale style, made from one photo of a jar of mango pickle. It shows the kind of festive backdrop you can ask for. Fairy lights twinkle and rose petals fall; the jar and its label stay still.
The exact prompt we used
Wedding season showcase: the product stands in front of a softly blurred wedding mandap decorated with marigold garlands, hanging jasmine strings and warm golden fairy lights, rose petals drift down slowly, warm light reflects as moving highlights on the product, slow smooth push-in, rich red, gold and blush palette, premium celebratory advertisement mood. The background has no signs, no banners and no lettering. The product stays perfectly still, exactly as in the photo — it does not move, rotate, lift or change shape. Preserve the exact original label text, logo and lettering unchanged. No added text, no watermark, no people, no hands.
How to make a Christmas or New Year sale video
Choose: product photo or poster
If you already have an offer poster with your prices and dates, use Poster to Video. If you want a scene around one product, such as a plum cake, a gift box or a bottle, use 'Write your own' with a product photo.
Take a clean product photo
One product on a plain table in daylight, straight on, with the label facing the camera and space around it for the decorations. No flash.
Start from a tested prompt
Copy the prompt from the box above the steps. It made the sample. Keep its last part (the product stays still, no text) and swap the wedding mandap for a Christmas scene, for example 'a decorated Christmas tree, warm fairy lights and soft falling snow behind the product'.
Generate in 9:16
9:16 fills the screen on Reels and WhatsApp Status. In 'Write your own' you can pick Veo 3.1 Lite, the model the sample was made with. The app shows the credits before you generate.
Add the offer yourself
Ask for no text in the video, because AI often misspells words like 'Merry Christmas'. Add your offer, the last order date and your number with the text tool or in the caption.
Tips for Christmas and New Year sales
- Bakeries: one cake, box of cookies or hamper per video, with the weight, the price and the last day to order in the caption.
- Gift shops: show one gift-ready item with its wrapping, and say whether you deliver and until which date.
- Post your first sale video one to two weeks before 25 December, and a reminder a day or two before with your last order or delivery date.
- For New Year, post a second video in the last week of December. Party wear, cakes and gift hampers sell for 31 December and 1 January.
- Use the same scene for every post this season, so your feed looks like one campaign.
- Don't put famous Christmas songs or film music behind your video; copyrighted music can get your post muted or removed.
Closest ready styles
None of these is a Christmas style. They are the closest tested looks: a warm festive backdrop, a clean studio shot, or your own poster brought to life. Open one to see its preview.
- Wedding Season Sale →Your product in front of a decorated wedding mandap with fairy lights and falling rose petals.
- Wedding Gift Hamper →Marigold and rose petals fall beside your gift hamper or sweets box, with a glowing mandap behind.
- Product-Only Photoshoot →Turn a single product photo into a studio-style hero shot video.
- Poster to Video →Convert a static poster or banner into an animated promo clip.
Christmas and New Year scene ideas for 'Write your own'
Paste one of these in place of the scene part of the prompt above. We haven't tested them, so check the result.
- Bakery: 'The cake sits on a wooden table; behind it, a softly blurred Christmas tree with warm golden lights, a few snowflakes drift down, slow smooth push-in, cosy warm mood.'
- Gift shop: 'The gift box sits on a table with pine branches and small red ornaments around it, warm fairy-light bokeh behind, slow camera drift.'
- New Year: 'The product stands on a dark table, golden confetti falls slowly and soft fireworks glow in a blurred night sky behind it, slow pull-back.'
What is ready and what isn't
There are no tested Christmas or New Year styles in Ayka yet. 'Write your own' works with any scene you describe, but your prompt hasn't been through our tests: snow and lights can cover the product, the product can move, and printed labels can warp. Keep the line asking for the product to stay still, and check every video before you post. Poster to Video is told to keep your poster's text and layout, but AI can still change small text, so read every word.

Questions
What should bakeries post for Christmas?
Your Christmas bestsellers, one per video: plum cake, cookie boxes, hampers or custom cakes. Write the weight, the price, the last day to order and how to order in the caption. A warm scene with a tree and lights, made in 'Write your own' from a photo of the cake, works without a ready Christmas style.
Can I turn my Christmas offer poster into a video?
Yes, with the Poster to Video style. It adds a slow zoom, a light sweep and depth to your poster and is told to keep the text and layout as they are. AI can still change small text, so read every word in the result. It makes a 10-second clip for 1 credit (₹149) at its default settings. The free ad for new accounts doesn't cover this style.
When should I start posting Christmas sale videos?
About one to two weeks before 25 December, then a reminder a day or two before with your last order or delivery date. Post a separate New Year video in the last week of December.
What size works for Instagram and WhatsApp?
9:16 (vertical) for Reels, Stories and WhatsApp Status. Use 1:1 (square) for a feed post, or 16:9 for YouTube or a shop screen. You pick the size before you generate.
Is there a free Christmas video template?
Not yet. Ayka has no Christmas style, so use 'Write your own' with a Christmas scene. New accounts get 1 free product ad, and it works on 'Write your own' (it uses Veo 3.1 Lite at the shortest length).
