Safed buniya—also called sugar buniya or sugar boondi—is dry, white and distinct from yellow buniya dipped in chashni. Mixed with chura, it creates a portable snack in which concentrated sweetness is spread across a larger quantity of grain.

The combination can also be carried home as Prasad after Kanwar journeys and visits to religious sites. Its snack and ritual contexts should both remain visible.
