Sandesh is a famous dessert from West Bengal, Kolkata in particular and we have Korapak or hard Sandesh where shelf life is long and we have Narampak or soft Sandesh where shelf life is short. I made in Steamed method which is healthy and popular and I made with Gandharaj Lebu or Lime which has a distinctive aroma and less in juice. Pls do try and I assure you that you shall make more often than usual
