Seventy years on one road

श्रीडूंगरगढ़ की मिठास, सन् 1955 से

The shop

It started with peda, laddu and bhujia

Sri Dungargarh is a tehsil town on the Bikaner–Ratangarh road. In 1955, Shri Gopaldas Swami opened a single counter here with three items and one iron kadhai. The town was smaller then; the road was not tarred.

Three generations later the shop is in the same building, and the kitchen is still the room directly behind the counter. Customers can see the kadhai from where they stand — that was never a design decision, it is simply how the building was built.

We have added items slowly, and only when we could make them properly. Motipak came in the seventies. Kaju katli later, once good cashew became reliable. Goond chakki has always been a winter sweet.

A short timeline

What changed, and what did not

1955

The first counter

Shri Gopaldas Swami begins selling mawa peda, boondi laddu and bhujia on the Sri Dungargarh main road.

1971

Motipak joins the tray

The boondi jhara arrives from Bikaner. Motipak and besan chakki become the winter mainstay for the surrounding villages.

1988

Our own ghee

The family stops buying market ghee and starts clarifying butter in-house. It is the single change customers noticed most.

1996

Packaged namkeen

Bhujia and the Kuch Khatta Kuch Meetha mixture are packed under the GDS mark and sent to shops across the district.

2014

Sweets travel

Cold-chain couriers make it possible to send milk sweets outside Rajasthan. The first Diwali boxes go further than the bus stand.

Today

The same room

Four generations, one address. Everything is still cooked behind the counter you buy it from.

House rules

Three things we do not negotiate

Ghee, never vanaspati

Butter is clarified in our kitchen. It is the reason besan chakki smells the way it does two streets away.

Nothing sits overnight

Milk sweets are made for the day. The next morning starts with fresh mawa.

Weighed in front of you

At the counter and in the packing room, the scale faces the customer. Online, the tin is weighed after packing and the slip goes in the box.

Questions we get

Delivery, bulk orders, returns

Shelf life is printed on each pack. Milk sweets are shorter-lived than ghee sweets and namkeen. There are no preservatives. Check the product page before you order.

Enter your PIN at checkout. The shop shows the delivery methods, price and estimate for that code. Availability depends on the route, not a promise on this page.

Yes. Tell the shop the date, the mix and the number of boxes before you need them. Contact the counter.

Open the order in your account and send a return request with a description the day it arrives. The shop reviews each request. Returns policy.

The kitchen is vegetarian. Sweets contain milk and most contain tree nuts. The kitchen also handles wheat, so we cannot call anything gluten-free. Read each product’s allergen note.
