Patasa (also called Batasha or Sugar Drop Candy) is a traditional Indian sweet made primarily from sugar syrup that has been crystallized into light, airy, coin‑shaped or drop‑shaped pieces. It has a subtle, pure sweetness and a delicate, crunchy texture that melts in your mouth. Patasa is commonly found in Indian grocery stores and is often used as a sweet treat, festive snack, or offering in religious ceremonies.
