Discovery of Chandrahara<\/h3>\r\n

The origins of Chandrahara<\/strong> are traced back to royal kitchens, where skilled chefs experimented with textures and flavours to create a dessert fit for kings. The name “Chandrahara” translates to “garland of the moon,” symbolizing its crescent shape and the opulent appeal of this dessert. Over time, it became a beloved sweet dish served during festivals like Diwali and weddings, particularly in Karnataka.<\/p>\r\n

In MTR & Tamil Magazine<\/h2>\r\n

When the owner of MTR visited France he tasted a sweet and it attracted him a lot. The sweet looked flaky like a pastry. He wished to introduce it in MTR and asked his chefs to try that recipe and named it as French Sweet. But the sweet was not much adored by the customers and it was almost a flop. Later he decided to rename the sweet with a popular movie of that time as Chandrahara. Then the sweet became very popular and even now it is popular. It is served on every Sundays even now and there is a lot of crowd to taste this delicacy. I made this recipe to publish in vikatan Magazine. Thank you Vikatan for letting me to try these innovative recipes.<\/p>\r\n
