When our Chief Mithaiwala was travelling through Lucknow, he tasted a local delicacy called Karak Sohan Halwa. It is a flat disc, made by cooking together wheat flour, refined flour, sugar and lots of ghee. This thickened mixture is then poured over mixed nuts in a round mould and left to set, resulting in an almost biscuit-like sweet!
Inspired by the brittle candy texture of this local delicacy, our Barks are made by sandwiching a generous layer of silky butterscotch caramel between dark chocolate. As a seasonal special, we switched out the almonds that go into our classic flavour with freeze-dried strawberries and rose petals. Our interpretation was to make this local delight into an on-the-go snack. It’s the variety of textures in our Choco Butterscotch Barks that keep you reaching out for more!
