Three generations of hand-cooking til and gur into tilkut, laddu and chikki the old way — pure ghee, no shortcuts, made fresh at our two shops in Gaya every single day.
Tilkut is a craft of patience — sesame roasted slow, jaggery or sugar syrup pulled to the right thread, then beaten by hand until it lifts into layers. Every price below is what you pay, delivered to your door.
The shop has moved with Gaya's seasons, but the kadhai, the recipe and the address haven't changed much at all.
Our great-grandfather set up a small tilkut kadhai on Tekari Road, cooking through the winter months for the neighbourhood around the temple.
The shop earned its name across Gaya as a Makar Sankranti stop — families began placing standing orders for the season, a tradition many still keep.
The new shop has opened on New Goadam, Tutwari Road, Gaya and expanded the range of products. But the tradition of hand-cooked tilkut continues.
Still hand-cooked in small batches at both shops on Tekari Road and Tutwari Road — now reaching customers who ask for it to be shipped outside Gaya too.
