you guys are just awesome, taking so much pleasure in cooking and then blogging it to make the lives of not-so-good cooks like me easier.. Good start, great pics... Keep up the great work.
Thanks for ur lovely comment Sushma. Have been thinking for a long time to launch one .....but took its time to materialise.Am happy I finally made it :-) Thanks so much.
Archana, u asked me about the packaging of my laddoos in the forum.
It is actually a wooden container wrapped with Rajasthani print cloth.I decorated the cloth further with beads/decorative studs.
After filling the container with laddoos,I covered it with a plastic foodwrap.
I got the wooden shape box at Pune,India where I used to work earlier.Hope this helped.Incase of any doubts ,u can ask me further.
