Kaju Kesar Barfi
About Kaju Kesar Barfi
Saffron has never been an everyday ingredient in an Indian kitchen — it is what you bring out when something is worth marking. In Kashi that instinct runs deep: kesar goes into the milk on a festival morning, into the kheer at a wedding, into whatever is being sent to the house of someone you want to honour. Adding it to kaju barfi is not decoration; it is a statement about the occasion. The saffron itself comes from Pampore in Kashmir, where the crocus is still picked by hand at dawn and each flower yields three crimson threads — which is why real kesar has never been cheap, and why so much of what is sold as kesar mithai has never met a saffron strand. Ours has. This is the box we send out most in Diwali and wedding season, and the one our regulars ask for by name when plain kaju barfi feels too quiet for the moment.
Customer Reviews
Tastes exactly like the peda we used to get in Varanasi as kids. Not overly sweet, and the texture is spot on. Ordered a second box within the week.
Ordered for a family function, arrived well packed and fresh. Everyone asked where I got it from. Will reorder for Diwali.
Good taste, slightly sweeter than I expected but still very good quality. Delivery was quick, within 3 days.
