Traditional Dessert from the sweet canvas of Odisha
Odia desserts carry a rich culinary heritage from the state of Odisha, and remain an integral element of authentic Odia cuisine. Offering a box of traditional sweets is a common gesture of respect and belonging when visiting family and friends. This tradition stems from Lord Jagannath’s fondness for sweets, which is reflected in the divine Chhapan Bhog spread, showcasing an array of classic Odia desserts.
Breaking the recipes of these Chhapan Bhog sweets reveals the simplicity and natural ingredients used in preparing and serving each Odia dessert. Interestingly, about half of the Odia desserts are baked or steamed, while the rest are fried, providing a balanced taste experience without excessive guilt.
