Summary


Mithai is as universally delicious as chocolate — but its ornate presentation and traditional branding create a barrier to entry for global audiences. Masti reintroduces Indian sweets as contemporary, shareable delights by simplifying both form and design.



Cultural Context


Mithai has historically been tied to celebrations, rituals, and hospitality in Indian culture.


  • According to research on Indian food habits (Mintel or Euromonitor), traditional sweets are primarily consumed during festivals and weddings, not as everyday snacks.


  • Globalized Indian communities still associate mithai with nostalgia and gifting, not daily indulgence.
