At himalaya2home, we bring you the authentic taste of Rotana, Uttarakhand’s beloved traditional sweet, often called the Pahadi Cookie for its distinctive crispy texture and delightful flavor. Deeply rooted in the cultural fabric of the Garhwal and Kumaon regions, Rotana is more than a sweet—it’s a symbol of togetherness and celebration.
What Makes Our Organic Rotana Special
Our Rotana is lovingly handcrafted using 100% certified organic ingredients sourced from the pristine Himalayas:
Organic whole wheat flour for natural fiber
Pure jaggery for sustained energy and natural sweetness
Organic ghee for richness and nourishment
Fresh milk for authentic flavor
Cardamom & fennel seeds for a refreshing, aromatic touch
Each Rotana is shaped using the traditional "Rotana ka Sancha” molds, preserving its heritage while ensuring every bite is free from chemicals and artificial additives.
Cultural Heritage with Organic Excellence
In Uttarakhand, Rotana holds a timeless place in tradition:
Paina – young brides carried these sweets as tokens of love and prosperity.
Festivals – no Makar Sankranti, Holi, or Harela is complete without sharing Rotana.
By recreating these heritage sweets with certified organic purity, himalaya2home ensures this beautiful tradition continues with even greater health and sustainability.

Jaggery – rich in iron, provides steady energy without sugar crashes.
