A true blue Bong's appetite is never satisfied until and unless he gets his dose of maachh(fish) and mishti(sweet). Coming to sweets, we have a tradition that goes back for centuries. Kolkata invented Rosogolla, Kolkata serves the best Misti Doi in the world and it's Kolkata where you get your choicest overdose of Sandesh.
Starting from the age old traditional sweet makers from KC Dass, Bheem Nag, Dwarik Ghosh to Putiraam, today's cool misti outlets are still doing great in business though people are a lot more calorie conscious these days. Even amidst the rise of fast food chains, Kolkata's sweet shops have held on to their identity and are constantly reinventing themselves.
Balaram Mullick and Radharaman Mullick is such a chain of sweet shops across the city. They have a tradition of making sweets since 1885 and the Bhawanipur outlet is their first outlet in the city. They now have cool and happening outlets in a lot of place around the city and have some amazing lip smacking and mouth watering sweets and snacks to offer.
Their products are made using really scientific and hygienic methods in their factories and their shop outlets just extends the joy to the customers.
Let's come straight to their products and list out some of my hot favorites:
=> Aam Doi: Mango flavored yogurt is number one and hot favorite for me. What's amazing is that beneath the layer of yogurt you have actual mango pulp. Yummilicious to the core!
=> Chocolate Lava Sandesh:Here's a tasty twist to your chocolate sandesh, replete with liquid molten chocolate filling inside.
=> Jol Bhora Sandesh:This one's always been a classic. The taste of nolen gur just melts in your mouth.
=> Baked Rosogolla:This is one of their best products. A huge favorite across ages, this baked version of the classic Rosogolla is ready to rock you!
=> Cadmish Sandesh:This is a fusion of Cadbury CHocolate and Sandesh and done to perfection. THis heart shaped mishti will make you fall in love!
=> Kulfi Sandesh:If you are a lover of Kulfi, you will devour up this one like a glutton! The packaging is too attractive!
=> Gulab Jamun and Baked Mihidana:You can't say no to a hot Gulab Jamun fried in ghee, can you? And the classic mihidana here has a baked avatar and is all set to make your diet plans go for a toss!
=> Diabetes Sandesh:Diabetic? Don't worry! This sugar free sandesh is too tasty and will end your grief of not having sweets!
Let's now explore some of their snacks:
=> Kucho Nimkih:This crispy namkeen fry is an all time tea time favorite!
