It is made of gram flour (besan), all-purpose flour, ghee, sugar and milk.[2] It is usually cube-shaped or served as flakes, and has a crisp and flaky texture. Traditionally sold loose in rolled paper cones, modern industrial production has led to it being sold in the form of tightly formed cubes.[1]

Soan Papdi has no confirmed origin, but it is believed to have originated in the western state of Maharashtra, India.[3] According to culinary anthropologist Kurush F Dalal, Soan papdi is a Persian dish, the word "soan" has a Persian origin and the name comes from the term sohan pashmaki.[4] San Papdi as is it's called in Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, "san" means fibres that the sweet contains.
