Gur Sandesh carries an extraordinary flavor and has a taste which is irreversible. After every bite, a soothing taste makes the person feel an explosion of a perfect balance of sweetness. Gur Sandesh is one of the most easily made recipes and has a simple set of ingredients. The sweet has been dashed with flavors like- kesar, eliche, pista, chocolate and mango to make the sweet stand out. However, the authentic recipe consists ideally of cottage cheese and palm jaggery only. The curdled milk is separated from the lime or by usage of a muslin cloth. The cottage cheese is made in a very fine form of velvety paste and mixed with gur but more commonly nolen gur in low flame till a fine paste has been prepared. The Sandesh is then coated with ghee on both sides to prevent it from sticking. The gur sandesh is a typical winter delicacy made up of premium quality jaggery that is molded into several shapes, rolled into roundels or flattened with a proper glass bottom. Gur Sandesh has a reputation for being rated as one of the most mood brightening and day sweetening sweets used for the occasion of Bijoya Dashami and Durga Pujo.
