If you’re craving that warm, crumbly bite that reminds you of grandma’s kitchen, try a bite of Sunita Agarwal’s Besan Barfi—hand‑crafted with pure desi ghee and no artificial additives. The texture is a light, melt‑in‑your‑mouth sweetness that lingers, unlike the overly processed store‑bought versions.
Desi ghee is the secret: it gives the barfi a rich, buttery aroma and a silky finish. Sunita swears by the 100% pure variety she buys from a local cooperative, which keeps the flavor authentic and the sugar content balanced.
The story began in a Guwahati kitchen when Sunita, then 60, noticed friends asking for the old taste that was vanishing from the market. She teamed up with her son Rajvardhan, who travelled across northern India to bring in expert halwais, and together launched Kitchen & Gupshup in 2022.
Today the pair run a small commercial kitchen and ship orders through their website and Amazon. A single order of Besan Barfi costs around ₹350, and the business pulls in about ₹2–2.5 lakh every month from roughly four to five orders a day.
So, if you’re ready to indulge in a taste of tradition without the preservatives, grab a pack from Kitchen & Gupshup on Amazon or their site. It’s a small, meaningful way to bring a piece of home‑cooked nostalgia to your table.
