It is always a joy for me even when there is no occasion to make sweets.Since daughter has a sweet tooth I don’t need occasion to make them.I do make many traditional sweets but also would like to try new sweets and this one I learnt through my blogger friend sowmya subramanium from her blog.My thanks to her.Kesari is made with plain orange food colour as a flavoring and I have seen pineapple and banana kesari too.I have fruit kesari in my blog but this one was so tempting that I needed to try right away.This can be made pretty soon and for bachha party this one is going to be a true hit.You can make so many variations with kesari,the choice is limitless and you can let go of your imagination to suit your taste.So here’s a new sweet coming your way.
