A beloved festive treat that's perfect for celebrations or as a special indulgence, made fresh daily using time-honored recipes.
Motichoor Ladoo is one of India's most iconic traditional sweets, often associated with festivals, weddings, and special celebrations. The name "motichoor" translates to "crushed pearls," referring to the tiny boondi (fried chickpea flour droplets) that make up this delicate sweet. At Chandigarh Sweets & Restaurant, we prepare our Motichoor Ladoo using authentic techniques that have been perfected over generations. The process begins with making a smooth batter from chickpea flour, which is then fried through a special perforated ladle to create thousands of tiny, uniform pearls.
These crispy boondi pearls are immediately mixed with warm sugar syrup that's been infused with cardamom and saffron, giving the ladoos their distinctive golden color and aromatic flavor. While still warm, the mixture is carefully shaped into perfectly round balls and garnished with chopped pistachios or almonds. The result is a sweet that literally melts in your mouth, with a unique texture that's both crispy and soft. Our Motichoor Ladoo is not overly sweet, allowing the subtle flavors of cardamom and nuts to shine through. Perfect for gifting, celebrations, or simply treating yourself to an authentic taste of Indian tradition.
