Red velvet kalakand tart with Beetroot Moose &Fresh Fruit
#vday
Whenever we think about Valentine's day dish, red velvet cheesecake or cupcakes comes to our mind. I decided to make something different this time.
Kalakand is a very popular sweet of all occasions in India. I recreated this delicious sweet in a pretty romantic style. This special dessert is not only very delicious but also beautiful. I have given the name red velvet kalakand because of it's colour and for the shape, I got the idea from the start. I use some white chocolate and cornflour to make my kalakand little firm.
