Odisha's iconic sweet, Khaja, has been ranked among the top 10 best sweet pastries globally by Taste Atlas. This recognition highlights its unique cultural and spiritual significance, as it is a key offering at the Jagannath Temple in Puri and an integral part of the temple's Mahaprasad. Made from layered dough of refined wheat flour, sugar, and sometimes dry fruits, Khaja is deep-fried and coated in sugar syrup, creating a flaky, sweet treat. While Khaja has historical roots in regions like Bihar and Andhra Pradesh, it has been perfected in Odisha, embodying the state's culinary and spiritual heritage.
