Introduction to Desi Sawwad’s Traditional Sweets & Snacks
Desi Sawwad proudly brings to you the essence of Bihar’s culinary heritage through seven delightful varieties of traditional sweets and snacks. Made with time-honored recipes passed down through generations, our range reflects the heart of Indian rural tradition—simple, wholesome, and full of love. Thekua, Gujiya, Khurma, and Gulgula are not just delicacies; they are festive emotions served on a plate. Whether during Chhath Puja, Holi, or weddings, these treats have been a staple of celebrations and community bonding in Bihar.
1. Sweet Khurma – Traditional Flavors
Khurma, also known as Shakkarpara, is a sweet snack made with deep-fried maida pieces coated in crystallized sugar. Its crisp texture with a sugary coating creates a nostalgic taste of home. Popular during festivals and family gatherings, Khurma represents the simple joys of traditional sweets—crunchy, sweet, and endlessly addictive. A snack once made by grandmothers is now packed with the same warmth and legacy by Desi Sawwad.
2. Wheat & Coconut + Suji Thekua
This version of Thekua is crafted with whole wheat flour, semolina (suji), and dried coconut, offering a naturally sweet and chewy texture. Known for its rich aroma and golden crust, Thekua is traditionally prepared during Chhath Puja as an offering to the Sun God. The wheat gives it body, coconut adds flavor, and jaggery brings authentic sweetness. This Thekua is not just food, but a sacred blessing.
3. Maida & Coconut + Suji Thekua
A variation on the traditional theme, this Maida-based Thekua is softer and richer, combining suji and coconut for depth. The inclusion of refined flour gives a melt-in-mouth experience, making it popular among those who love a lighter bite with classic flavors. With its heavenly taste and divine aroma, it appeals to both elders and children alike.
4. Maida & Khoya + Dry Fruits Gujiya
This festive Gujiya is a royal delight. Filled with khoya (milk solids) and chopped dry fruits, and encased in a crispy maida shell, it’s deep-fried to perfection. This rich, luxurious treat is a symbol of Holi and Diwali celebrations. Sweet, creamy, and crunchy, Gujiya brings back the joy of festivals and traditions.
5. Maida & Suji + Dry Fruits Gujiya
Lighter yet flavorful, this Gujiya variant balances maida with suji, creating a slightly grainier texture in the filling. Infused with the natural sweetness of dry fruits and suji’s roasted aroma, it is the perfect balance of richness and rustic charm. A preferred snack during weddings and festivals.
6. Sweet Gulgula – Wheat & Sugar
Gulgula is Bihar’s answer to doughnuts. Made from wheat flour, sugar, and a hint of cardamom, these golden brown, deep-fried balls are soft inside and crispy outside. Perfect for prasad or tea-time, their simplicity and soulful taste make them a favorite among all age groups.
7. Maida Namkin – Namak Para Snacks
These savory diamond-shaped snacks made from maida and ajwain are deep-fried to crispy perfection. A popular munching item, Namak Para is mildly salty and supremely crunchy. They pair beautifully with tea and make for an ideal snack during travel or leisure.
Why Thekua & Traditional Sweets Are Popular
Thekua and its variants hold a unique place in Indian culinary culture. They are not just food but symbols of tradition, devotion, and community. Their long shelf life, natural ingredients, and festival relevance make them ideal as gifts, prasad, or daily snacks. These sweets are deeply rooted in the spiritual and cultural fabric of Bihar and continue to win hearts nationwide.
Desi Sawwad preserves this legacy with purity, taste, and tradition in every bite.
