Bal mithai

Bal mithai is a brown chocolate-like fudge, made with roasted khoya and coated with white balls made of sugar coated roasted poppy seeds. It is a popular sweet from Kumaon, India. Bal mithai originated in Kumaon. It was an invention of locals of Lal Bazaar, Almora, in the early twentieth century. Scholars believe that bal mithai initially must have been the name of the prime offering to the Sun God.
