Tips & Secrets

  • Roasting the almond paste on very low heat is mandatory for achieving the most professional-grade authentic uniform golden color without bitterness.
  • Ensuring the sugar syrup reaches exactly one-string consistency provides the absolute secret to achieving superior professional-grade firm-yet-soft texture.
  • The addition of a little mawa (khoya) provides the essential professional-grade creamy-rich lift.
  • Always use freshly ground nutmeg specifically to ensure the signature professional-grade warm-aroma is maintained.
