Potpourri / Thekua Sancha

A Thekua sancha is a traditional, handcrafted wooden mould used to shape and design Thekua (a popular, deep-fried dry sweet) into intricate patterns. Primarily used during Chhath Puja in Bihar, Jharkhand, and Uttar Pradesh, these moulds often feature leaf-like or geometric designs to create authentic, patterned cookies.
