Gulkand Paan Flavored ~250g
🍯🌹 Paan Gulkand - Aromatic Rose Preserve, Paan Finish 🌿🍃
Sun-cooked and craft-made to balance floral sweetness with gentle fennel warmth and paan aromatics ☀️.
What's It & How We Make It
Our Paan Gulkand blends 60% Dhaga Mishri 🪨, 35% Damask rose petals 🌹, 5% organic saunf (fennel seeds) 🌿 and 1% natural paan (betel leaf) extract 🍃. The mixture is layered and matured under sun ☀️, producing a fragrant, nuanced relish where the rose remains the star while fennel and paan provide digestive lift and a signature paan aroma 🌸.
Taste & Texture
Floral and pleasantly sweet up front 🌸, finishing with a cooling, anise-like fennel note 🌿 and the aromatic, green-leaf nuance of paan 🍃. Texture is spoonable, glossy and petal-soft 🍯.
Why Paan Gulkand is Different
✿ Saunf (Fennel): classic digestive, carminative and breath-freshening properties; reduces bloating and supports digestion after heavy meals 🌿.
✿ Natural Paan (Betel Leaf) Extract: adds a green, aromatic paan character - enhances post-meal freshness and cultural familiarity 🍃. (See safety note below ⚠️.)
Culinary & Wellness Uses
✿ Traditional post-meal digestive: a small spoon keeps breath fresh and aids digestion 🍽️.
✿ Mix into chilled rabri, frozen desserts, or smear on artisanal chocolates and nut brittle 🍨.
✿ Use in modern paan-inspired cocktails, mocktails and ice-creams for a curated flavor profile 🍹.
Storage & Shelf Life
🌹Sun-cooked and jarred hygienically 🍯.
🌹Store in a cool, dry place; refrigerate after opening ❄️.
🌹Consume within 6-12 months for best aroma retention ⏳.
🌹Keep away from direct sunlight once opened ☀️.
