Because this dessert was meant for a birthday , I thought it will look lovely as cake and slices. Generally Indian Milk cake made with just few ingredients like Milk, sugar and Nuts, but here I made space for Chocolate and Rose syrup in this milk cake. Since I prepared Kesar Kalakand in M/W more than three years ago, and the thought was always hovering since that time… I also mentioned this in that post “This receipe is obviously very traditional, but I want to try it out one day by adding chocolate giving this authentic sweet a complete make over..!!!” and oh boy it took all these years to give this traditional recipe a complete make over. It was one of my most dreamy combinations that has made it through this mouthwatering milk cake. What can I say about this make over, Chocolate and Rose Milk Cake actually tasted as delicious as it looks , the rose flavours in this cake is a win win situations, not too subtle and not too strong, but just you notice it and you will appreciate how it rounds up and smooths out the chocolate flavour. Rose and chocolate works so well with each other and instead of clashing the floral notes, blends and balances the dark bittersweet cake and compliments each other. Chocolate and Rose milk cake, I adorned with fragrant dried rose petals and pistachio slivers, the contrast of garnishing , combinations of flavours and elegant looking milk cake turned out darn delicious and delectable and simply satisfying !
