Raksha Bandhan is one of the oldest festivals of India. It celebrates the bond of love between the siblings. On this day, we all exchange, sweets with each other. As my all brothers are residing far away, I dedicate this dessert/sweet to them. To show of orange zest and saffron. It is so pretty to look at too. This sandesh, is a very special dessert and steals the show in any party. Very easy to make, yet sophisticated. This dish will not let you down. Do try it. #rakhi #sangitakalra

Notes
This dessert is very delicate and should be consumed the same day as it has orange rind which can make it bitter if kept for long.
