Sandesh Varieties For A Memorable Festive Bengali Dessert Table

By Yash Lakhan

Classic Sandesh

This classic dessert is made with fresh chenna and subtly flavored with cardamom.
It is straightforward but elegant.

Nolen Gur Sandesh

This variant is made richer by the addition of a distinct
seasonal sweetness that comes from the infusion of nolen gur (date palm jaggery).

Kesar Sandesh

This variation adds a posh and fragrant touch
with saffron flavor and pistachio slivers as garnish.

Choco Sandesh

This dessert incorporates chocolate ganache or cocoa powder to create a rich
chocolaty contemporary spin on the classic Sandesh.

Fruit Sandesh

It combines the creamy smoothness of Sandesh with pieces of fresh fruit
such as strawberries or mangos.
