About Kaju katli

Kaju Katli is a popular Indian sweet known for its rich, melt-in-your-mouth texture and nutty flavor. Originating from Indian cuisine, this delicacy is primarily made from cashew nuts, sugar, and ghee, with optional flavorings such as cardamom or rose water. The smooth, diamond-shaped slices are traditionally crafted during festive occasions like Diwali. Cashews provide Kaju Katli with healthy fats, plant-based protein, and essential nutrients like magnesium and iron. However, its high sugar content and calorie density make it a treat best enjoyed in moderation. While free from gluten and typically free from artificial additives, the use of clarified butter (ghee) and refined sugar contributes to its luxurious yet indulgent profile. Enjoy Kaju Katli as a festive dessert or gift, savoring its delightful balance between nutty richness and delicate sweetness, but remain mindful of portion sizes for a balanced diet.
