🌼 Jowar Gujiya (Baked | Millet-Based | Jaggery Sweetened | Handmade)
✨ A Millet Revival in a Timeless Festive Sweet
Gujiya has long been synonymous with the joy and warmth of Holi 🎉 - a sweet traditionally prepared in homes to celebrate togetherness and seasonal abundance.
At Sanesa Yourganic, we reinterpret this festive classic through India’s ancient grain wisdom.
