Maisoor Pak (or Maysoor Pak) is a rich, ghee based sweet that originated from
the Indian region of Maysoor. Like Petha, it was also invented by a cook in the
royal kitchens, and today is World famous. We have also picked up on this trend
and make maisoor pak for our customers regularly. The main ingredients of this
sweetmeat include ghee, sugar and gram flour while the flavor is accentuated
with essences like cardamom, saffron, honey and rose water, to name a few. Like
all of our sweets, this is not for the faint hearted for the sweet is drenched with
ghee and melts gloriously in your mouth.
The texture of our maisoor pak is just as it should be, slightly firm from the
outside but soft inside, and the color is a deep yellow that can also range to light
or dark brown. We use sifted gram flour that is cooked in fresh ghee, and is
stirred consistently with a nonstick ladle. Once the mixture is prepared, we allow
it to set in a greased platter, and cut it into squares once it has set. You may ask
why should you not buy this sweet from somewhere else, some other shop in
you area, that is nearer to your place maybe? Well, take us on our words when
we say that sweet making is in our heritage, and so we know how its done, all the
ins and outs. And these are not mere empty claims, but are backed up with the
support and ratings of our beloved customers.
Maisoor pak is eaten on weddings and religious festivals. It also has its
significance as a sweet eaten on baby showers, where it is popular. The perfect
square of maisoor pak should be greasy, dripping with oil and it must have a
luscious yellow color. And there is only one place in Mississauga you may find
just such a sweet.
