Malai Sandwich
Product USP:
A signature Bengali delicacy that combines the softness of fresh chhena with the richness of malai, delivering a dessert that’s as light in texture as it is deep in tradition.
History of the Product + Ingredients:
The Malai Sandwich is a hallmark of Bengali mithai artistry, known for its layered textures and delicate flavor profile. Our version is crafted from two velvety discs of fresh cow’s milk chhena, gently pressed and filled with luscious malai before being soaked in a light syrup infused with either fragrant rose or Kerala cardamom. Using cow’s milk from Eastern India ensures a clean, fresh dairy base, while fine cane sugar lends a mellow sweetness that complements rather than overpowers the creaminess.
Shelf Life:
Best enjoyed fresh and chilled, ideally within 1–2 days of preparation for peak texture and flavor.
Description:
Our Malai Sandwich is a celebration of creamy indulgence and elegant craftsmanship. Each bite offers the gentle resistance of fresh chhena followed by the silky softness of rich malai, all subtly perfumed by rose or cardamom syrup. Perfect for festive spreads, wedding menus, or personal indulgence, it melts on the tongue and leaves a lingering memory of Bengali sweet-making finesse.
