I am so excited to share this peda which I made it is a simple peda but I gave it a unique shape. I love to play with clay and the peda dough was perfect for me to play with it so made it more interesting by giving this simple peda a unique shape. I had this in mind to make different shaped sweets for so long if you follow my fb page or insta you will be knowing this picture of mine .
This is a sweets spread I made for 2016 diwali and it was loved by everyone so much. From then am loving to make different shaped sweets like store brought. “It doesn’t only look good but taste equally good” – this is what the feedback I got from the people who actually had these. So I am including one more to my collection of sweets today which is red rose peda. I made this keeping in mind of valentines day but never got to post it here. Simple ingredients used very easy to make peda but with a twist. I am happy to share these here. Thanks to the theme I chose this week emptied 3 of my draft posts, hope everyone liked it.
I remember making golap pithe for mega marathon and from then I had this idea of making some rose shaped sweets again and here I am with the recipe.
- Butter - 1 Stick
- Condensed milk - 1 tin
- Milk Powder - 2 cups
- Rose essence - few drops
- Red food color - few drops
- Silver vrak- For garnish ( optional)
- In a microwave-safe bowl take butter , melt it for 30 seconds.
- Add condensed milk, milk powder and mix it well with no lumps.
- Microwave this mixture for 3 minutes.Remove it after every 1-minute stir and microwave it again.
- After 3 minutes of cooking add red food color and rose essence to the mixture and combine it well .
- The peda mixture should come together and form a dough this is the right consistency.
- After the peda dough cools down completely, Pinch a small portion of the dough to make the bud.
- Take another small portion of the dough, make a ball and flatten it to form a petal.
- The top part of the petal should be thin.
- Stick this peda to the one side of the bud and keep continue wraping the petals around the bud till you are happy with your rose.
- Make as many roses possible with the peda dough.
- Garnish them with silver vrak.
