Description
Khoa-based sweets, also known as Mawa-based desserts, are traditional Indian confections prepared using concentrated milk solids (khoa). According to FSSAI standards, khoa is obtained by partial dehydration of whole milk and serves as a base for a wide variety of sweets such as Burfi, Peda, Gulab Jamun, Kalakand, and Milk Cake.
FSSAI mandates that khoa used in these sweets must be fresh, hygienically prepared, and free from added starch, adulterants, or non-permitted colors and flavors. The finished products are evaluated for parameters like moisture content, total fat, added sugar, microbial load, and shelf stability. Testing also ensures the absence of harmful pathogens, verification of food additives, and alignment with hygiene and packaging standards.
These regulations ensure that khoa-based desserts are safe for consumption, meet nutritional labeling requirements, and comply with both domestic and export food safety norms.
