Product information

Madatha Khaja is an iconic layered sweet pastry from the Andhra coast — particularly famous in Kakinada. Thin sheets of maida dough are brushed with ghee, folded and rolled many times to create visible layers, then deep-fried and soaked in sugar syrup. Each piece snaps open to reveal crisp, honeyed layers inside.

What goes in, and where it comes from

Every ingredient is sourced from the region that grows it best.

All Purpose flour All Purpose flour Hyderabad, Telangana
Hyderabad, Telangana

We use the trusted "Shalimar" brand for its consistent gluten content and fine texture. It provides the perfect elasticity needed for flakey sweets like Kaja or the outer shell of Bobbatlu, ensuring they are crisp yet delicate.

Sugar Sugar Belagavi, Karnataka
Belagavi, Karnataka

A clean, sulphur-free sugar source is vital for syrup-based sweets (like Gulab Jamun). It creates a clear, impurity-free syrup that doesn't crystallize quickly, keeping the sweets soft and spongy.

Sunflower Oil Sunflower Oil Hyderabad, Telangana
Hyderabad, Telangana

Used for deep-frying sweets like Gavvalu before syrup dipping. Gold Drop's neutral flavor ensures the oil doesn't interfere with the taste of the jaggery or cardamom, and its high smoke point prevents the sweets from smelling "oily."
