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.

About Kaju Litchie Barfi
Traditional kaju barfi is loved for its rich cashew flavour and smooth texture. Kaju Litchie
We will be honest with you: this one is not two hundred years old. It began the way most things at a mithai counter begin — with a question from a customer, in this case a young one who wanted her Diwali box to taste like something other than what her grandmother ordered. The litchi came naturally. Muzaffarpur is barely a morning away from Varanasi, and anyone who has grown up in this belt knows the smell of Shahi litchi in a hot May kitchen: the peel breaking, the juice running down a wrist, a whole crate finished before evening. That is the memory we were chasing. What we built around it is the same kaju barfi our karigars have rolled for twenty-five years — the technique is old, the flavour is new, and the white chocolate on top is the one liberty we take. It has quietly become the piece that disappears first from an assorted box.
Why You'll Love Our Kaju Litchie Barfi

Traditional Preparation: The cashew mixture is cooked with sugar syrup and worked while warm to develop its characteristic texture.
Balanced Sweetness: Rich cashews, fruity litchi notes, and white chocolate create a distinctive combination of flavours.
Carefully Prepared Texture: The litchi component is reduced separately before being incorporated into the mixture to help manage moisture and preserve its aroma.

Made for Special Occasions: An appealing choice for festive dessert platters, celebrations, and premium gifting.
How It's Made
The base begins as our regular kaju barfi — whole cashews ground fresh, cooked into a one-thread syrup and worked warm on marble until the surface turns satin. Litchi is the difficult part, because fruit and sugar do not want to behave together: too much moisture and the barfi never sets, too much heat and the fragrance vanishes entirely. So the litchi is reduced separately and slowly to concentrate it, then folded into the mixture once it is off the flame, when the aroma has nowhere to escape to. The slab is left to firm before a thin layer of tempered white chocolate is spread across the top — tempered, not simply melted, so it sets with a clean snap and a matte sheen instead of a soft smear. It is then cut into squares and packed once the chocolate has fully hardened.
Ingredients
-
Cashew nuts (W240 grade)
-
Litchi pulp
-
Sugar

White chocolate (cocoa butter, milk solids, sugar)

Storage Instructions
Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place, below 25°C. The white chocolate layer is the part to protect — in direct heat it softens and can develop a harmless pale bloom on the surface, which affects looks rather than taste. In peak summer, keep the box in the coolest part of the house or refrigerate briefly, then bring it back to room temperature for fifteen minutes before serving so the barfi softens and the litchi aroma opens up again.

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.
