The Story Behind Traditional Bihari Thekua
Thekua is more than a snack — it is the heartbeat of Bihar. This age-old crispy sweet, made from wheat flour, jaggery, and fragrant desi ghee, has graced every Bihari kitchen during festivals, especially during the sacred Chhath Puja.
During Chhath — Bihar’s most revered festival — Thekua holds a place of honour as the sacred prasad offered to Surya Dev. Mothers wake before dawn, knead the dough with care, and press each piece by hand using a traditional wooden mould, filling the home with the rich aroma of ghee and wheat.
At Mummy Ne Banaya, we carry that same devotion into every batch. Our recipe comes from a family that has made Thekua for three generations, refusing to simplify or commercialise what is, at its core, an act of love. When you open a pack of our Thekua, you’re not just eating a snack — you’re experiencing Bihar’s heritage, one crispy bite at a time.
