Wondering what is Gapps and what they contain? Read here.
Google Apps package contains propitiatory Google applications that cannot be bundled with any of custom ROMs like cyanogenmod, paranoidandroid, aokp etc due to licensing restrictions with Google.
They come pre-installed in almost all Android devices, but not with custom ROMs. Though custom ROMs work without gapps, for complete Android experience these are recommended. Google Apps package contains apps like Google Play Services, Play Store, Gmail , Maps etc. Some of these apps can also be downloaded from play store.
