Sandesh (sweet)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sandesh (Bengali: সন্দেশ, Hindi "") is a sweet that is made in West Bengal state of India and in Bangladesh. It is somewhat comparable to a Peda [citation needed]. It is created with paneer and sugar [1]. Some recipes of Sandesh call for the use of Chana instead of Paneer [2]. The Dhaka version called pranahara (Losing of one's heart) is a softer kind of sandesh, made with mawa and the essence of curd [3].
