Story
Our Story: From Prayagraj's Lanes to Delhi NCR's Homes
Thus, in 1890, at Prayagraj, which is known for being holy, our Great-Great Grandmother established Sithora for New Mothers living in that area. Since she resided close to Sangam, she was aware of Ayurvedic practices and made use of spices and dry fruits available there to develop Sithora.My grandmother’s recipe was carried down through four generations of women in my family. She made Sithora for all the young moms in our relatives. My mom has also continued the legacy, and now I am taking the tradition to the contemporary mom.When I shifted to Delhi NCR in 2018, I observed that health-conscious friends were finding it hard to locate homemade Indian sweets that do not contain refined sugar. While regular "mithai" sweet shops were serving energy-rich sweets chock-full of sugar, health food shops were selling their energy balls at an exorbitant price. None of them were remotely "Indian."
And that’s when I realized: our family recipe wasn’t just for us; it was to be shared.
Why Sithora Stands Apart: The Heritage Difference
Our 1890 Heirloom Recipe
This isn't a recreated or modified recipe. Our Sithora follows the exact proportions and traditional methods documented in our family records from 1890. Each ingredient serves a specific Ayurvedic purpose, and the cooking process follows time-tested techniques that maximize nutrient retention and flavor development.
Small-Batch Handcrafting
We never mass-produce. Each batch of Sithora is handcrafted by trained family members who understand the nuances of roasting dry fruits to perfection, tempering spices for optimal flavor, and achieving the ideal ladoo texture. This artisanal approach ensures every piece meets our exacting standards.
