A name that
feels like home.
Mai is the Bhojpuri word for mother. It is also the feeling we want to share: warmth, familiarity, and a connection that travels with you.
Traditional taste.
Timeless bonds.
Mai Heritage Foods begins with a simple idea: the food we share can keep us connected to where we come from. Our focus is Thekua, a traditional Bihari sweet snack that holds a special place in family life and celebrations.
For those who grew up with it, the flavor may feel familiar. For those trying it for the first time, it is an invitation to discover a little of Bihar’s food heritage.
We bring that spirit to our 200 g Thekua pouch, with wheat flour, jaggery, pure ghee, fennel, and cardamom. Our floral design reflects the same warmth: maroon, gold, and cream, with a little heart in the details.
From our community
to yours.
Based in Dublin, California, Mai welcomes families, food lovers, community gatherings, and retailers who want to share a taste of Bihari tradition.
