How to have the transparent look cube for display on the Faluda? This has become normal in Dhaka Restaurants.
Rose flavoured Falooda Ice-cream is my all time favourite. The fresh homemade falooda sev is softer and tastier than the readymade sev. I sometimes use arrowroot flour to make the sev as it can served on fasting days.
