Vivek, who runs a renowned sweet shop near Khudaganj Temple in Farrukhabad, says the key to the unique taste lies in purity.

The mawa is mixed with cardamom, roasted gram flour, and sugar, ingredients that enhance both taste and nutritional value. (News18 Hindi)
He adds that the quality of the mawa is the most important factor. It is prepared with great care and cooked slowly until it is properly steamed. This method of cooking enhances the flavour and texture of the pedas, giving them their signature richness. (News18 Hindi)
