Lapsi Dallo Masala – Authentic Nepali Lapsi Titaura by Ratnapark Paun Bhandar (110g)

What Is Lapsi? Nepal’s Beloved Hog Plum

Lapsi (scientific name: Choerospondias axillaris) is a small, tart fruit native to Nepal and the Himalayan foothills, commonly known in English as the Nepali hog plum. It has a distinctly sour, tangy flavor with a fibrous texture and is one of the most iconic ingredients in Nepali snack culture. Lapsi is harvested in autumn and is traditionally used to make titaura — Nepal’s most beloved category of sweet-sour-spicy fruit candy and preserves. The fruit is also Nepal’s national fruit, making it deeply embedded in Nepali cultural identity.

What Is Titaura? And What Is Dallo?

Titaura is the Nepali term for a broad category of fruit-based snacks made by cooking down tart fruits with sugar, salt, chili, and spices into various textures — from chewy strips and hard candies to soft pastes. Dallo specifically refers to the soft, semi-liquid or paste-like form of titaura — thick, spoonable, and intensely flavored. Lapsi Dallo Masala is the most popular variety: a rich, jammy lapsi paste seasoned with chili and spices that delivers a perfect hit of sweet, sour, and heat all at once. It’s the snack every Nepali child grew up eating, and one of the most craved items for the diaspora abroad.
