Patishapta Pitha, a beloved sweet treat from the Bengali cuisine of West Bengal, India, is a delicate rice flour crepe filled with a creamy, sweet mixture typically made with reduced milk (kheer) or a coconut and jaggery combination, offering a delightful blend of textures and flavors that is especially cherished during festive seasons and winter months. The name "Patishapta" is believed to be derived from the Bengali words "pati" meaning "thin sheet" and "sapta" meaning "seven layers," possibly referencing the thin, layered nature of the crepe. This sweet dish holds a significant place in Bengali culture, often served during special occasions like weddings, festivals like Pohela Boishakh (Bengali New Year), and the winter harvest festival, Nobanno Utshob.
