Nutritional Information
Kala jamun is typically made with milk solids such as khoya, flour and sugar syrup, and it is fried before soaking. That makes it a rich, sweet dessert to enjoy in small portions. Please refer to the Nutrition Facts panel and ingredient list on the tin for exact values and allergen information, including dairy.

• Slice and layer into a trifle or cheesecake for a fusion dessert
• Offer as prasad after Ganesh Chaturthi or Satyanarayan pooja
• Garnish with slivered almonds and a strand or two of saffron for guests
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between kala jamun and gulab jamun?
Kala jamun is fried longer and often has a bit more sugar in the dough, which gives it a darker color and a slightly caramelized flavor.
How should I store leftovers after opening?
Transfer the jamuns and their syrup to a clean glass or steel container, refrigerate, and finish them within the window printed on the tin.
Can I use the leftover syrup?
Yes. Many cooks use it to sweeten shrikhand, drizzle over pancakes or soak sliced bread for a quick shahi tukda.
A tin of these on the shelf means dessert is always ready.
