Agra
Sample Agra's most famous sweet — petha, a translucent soft candy made from ash gourd (white pumpkin) in dozens of flavours from the original kesar (saffron) and angoori (small round) to modern variations with paan, chocolate, rose, and kesari. Pankhi Petha in Noori Gate and Deviram Sweets are iconic establishments.
Buy packaged petha from established shops like Pankhi Petha for longer shelf life (7–10 days). Fresh angoori petha is best consumed within 2–3 days.
