The Dakni Story
In India, pieces of folk wisdom declare that joy is compounded when shared. Desserts are the currency of joy; a peculiar currency that amplifies celebration, feelings of oneness, and flavors those little moments in life that deserve to be remembered. Dakni Sweet Treats is an entrepreneurial venture that was born of making the shahi or royal legacy accessible without losing the flourish and uniqueness of desserts that were once confined to regal kitchens. It was founded in 1994 to place Hyderabadi desserts on as important a pedestal as the one that has been awarded to the Hyderabadi Biryani.We invite you to to enjoy our select recipes that are a whisper and blessing from the old regal kitchens we can still relish today. Definitely an experience to be gifted.
BADAM Ki JALI
The chefs of yore in Hyderabad served Badam ki Jali as a royal treat for milestone occasions. This sweet dish is made with either almonds or a mixture of almonds and cashews along with sugar to form a dough which is then layered with edible silver paper and carefully crafted into special shapes to bring out the decadence of its ingredients in a rarely experienced luxuriance.
Maske Ke Lauz
A rare and exquisite sweet that melts in the mouth. Made of almonds and unsalted butter mixture, this is dried at room temperature for two days that enables it to form a crust on either side leaving the insides warm and gooey.
Ashrafi
The Hyderabadi Ashrafi gets its name from the golden coins from the Nizam era that it resembles. It is made with dough that consists of rich flavours of saffron, almonds and cashew which are moulded to take the shape of coins. The authentic recipes lend themselves to recreating the glory of historic Deccan and celebrating today’s milestones and occasions with slivers of indulgence from the past.
