Sweet Stories
Buy Authentic Thekua Online in India
Thekua — also spelled Thekuwa or Khajuria — is the iconic deep-fried sweet of Bihar, Jharkhand and Eastern Uttar Pradesh, lovingly offered as prasad during Chhath Puja. At Da Cultural Cravings we follow the original Bihari recipe — whole-wheat atta, pure desi ghee and natural jaggery (gur) — with no maida, palm oil or preservatives.
Alongside Thekua, our handcrafted range includes festive favourites Thekua Khajuri, Gujiya and Khurma. Whether you are sourcing Chhath Puja prasad, Diwali gifting, or simply craving authentic Bihari sweets online, every box is baked in small batches in our Bangalore kitchen and dispatched fresh across India.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Thekua and why is it offered during Chhath Puja?
Thekua is a traditional Bihari sweet made from wheat flour, ghee and jaggery. Because it stays fresh for weeks without refrigeration, it became the natural prasad for Chhath Puja, where devotees offer it to the rising and setting sun.
Can I buy authentic Thekua online and get delivery across India?
Yes. We ship Thekua, Thekua Khajuri, Gujiya and Khurma across India from our Bangalore kitchen. Check delivery availability with your PIN code before ordering.
Are your sweets made with maida or refined sugar?
No. We use only whole-wheat atta, pure desi ghee and natural jaggery / unrefined sugar. No maida, no palm oil, no preservatives, no artificial colour.
How long do Thekua and Khurma stay fresh?
Thekua and Khurma stay fresh for 20–30 days at room temperature in an airtight container. Gujiya is best within 10 days. After opening the seal, store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Always check the packaging for the best-before date.
