SKU: N/A Category:

In the lanes of North Kolkata, these snacks are a staple of every “Muri’r Tin” (puffed rice tin). Here is what makes our collection so special:

  • Kaidana & Kotkoti: These are typically tiny, diamond-shaped, or rectangular pieces of dough, deep-fried until they achieve a brittle, “kot-kot” (hard-crunchy) texture.

  • Monakka & Chowkhas: Often slightly larger and flakier, these versions focus on the “Khasta” (shortbread-like) feel, melting slightly in the mouth after the initial crunch.

  • The Kalonji Secret: Every piece is infused with Kalonji (Nigella seeds), which release a nutty, earthy aroma that is the hallmark of authentic Bengali namkeen.

  • Non-Spicy & Savory: Unlike many Indian snacks that rely on heavy chili, our Kaidana and Monakka focus on the pure flavors of flour, salt, and ghee/oil, making them a favorite for all age groups.

  • Authentic Kolkata Craftsmanship: These snacks are made in small batches in Kolkata, where the humidity and water quality contribute to that specific “biscuit-like” crunch that is impossible to replicate elsewhere.

  • Premium Ingredients: We use high-quality refined flour (Maida) and fresh spices. Our snacks are fried in clean, high-grade oil to ensure they are Kurmure (Extra Crunchy) and never greasy.

  • No Artificial Preservatives: We stay true to tradition. Our Kaidana contains no artificial colors or chemical stabilizers—just honest, simple ingredients.

  • Freshness Guaranteed: We pack our namkeen in airtight, moisture-proof containers immediately after they cool down, ensuring they stay crispy and tasty from Kolkata to your home.
