With the festive spirit in full swing, Ahmedabad residents are indulging in a unique and extravagant sweet treat this Diwali season – the 'Swarna Mudra'. This delectable delight is adorned with a lavish 24-carat gold layer.
Sold at the Gwalia SBR outlet in Ahmedabad, the Swarna Mudra sweet is not your ordinary dessert. Priced at a whopping ₹1,400 per piece and ₹21,000 per kilogram, this golden confectionery has caught the eye of many sweet enthusiasts. Each kilogram of Swarna Mudra consists of approximately 15 pieces, making it an exquisite and exclusive choice for those looking to add a touch of luxury to their Diwali celebrations.
This opulent sweet is crafted with a blend of high-quality ingredients, including blueberries, almonds, pistachios, and cranberries, creating a medley of flavours and textures. According to Raveena Tilwani, a representative from the store, the Swarna Mudra sweets have been specifically introduced this year and are receiving an overwhelming response from customers. The store is taking orders for these luxurious sweets and is ensuring that the demand is met with meticulous preparation.
Interestingly, Ahmedabad is not the only city witnessing such extravagant sweets. Just a few days ago, Lucknow made headlines for its 'Exotica' sweet, which is garnished with 24-carat gold. Sold at Chhappan Bhog in Lucknow, this unique mithai has been captivating taste buds since 2009. The demand for this exquisite delight has only soared over the years, with customers flocking to purchase the ₹500 per piece sweet, often opting for larger boxes costing up to ₹50,000.
