Bhapa pitha is a type of rice cake mainly from the eastern part of the Indian subcontinent, what is today Bangladesh, East India and Northeast India. Bhapa pitha is considered to be traditional winter dish in Bangladesh.These are steamed rice cakes made out of freshly ground rice flour. The filling is composed of coconut and date molasses. Either brown sugar or jaggery can often be used as a substitute for the molasses. It is believed to be originated in the region of ancient Kamrup i.e. today's Assam and then was spread to its nearby regions. In Assam it is known as ketli/tekeli pitha and is generally made on special occasions like Bihu with a specific rice known as "Bora Sual"
