Traditional Sweets & Snacks

परंपरागत मिठाई आ नाश्ता

Festival sweets and everyday snacks of Mithila.

पर्वक मिठाई आ रोजक नाश्ता।

Sweet for every occasion

हर अवसरक मिठाई

In Mithila, **no festival is complete without its specific sweet** — thekua for Chhath, tilkut for Makar Sankranti, anarsa for Diwali. These words appear in markets weeks before each parva.

मिथिला मे **कोनो परव अपन विशेष मिठाई बिना अधूर अछि** — छठक ठेकुआ, संक्रान्तिक तिलकुट, दियारीक अनरसा। परव सँ पहिने हाट मे ए शब्द सुनाइ देत अछि।
