This heavily loaded with Ghee, Dry Fruits, rose petals, Goand. My Dad used to get it from Nagore in Rajasthan, excellent in winters...

Yes, primarily used as Prasad, different forms are prepared. I like the Dhaniya one that my mom makes on Janamashtmi.

Infact I do not like the ones that are purchased. I only like the ones that are make by my mom or grandmom...

Perfect balance of Crisp, sweet and taste...
