Summary

Bikano Panjeeri Laddu offers a marvelous taste and a noteworthy texture. If only these were prepared in ghee!

Varied parts of the world are renowned for their varied delicacies. While the West has its soothing cup of hot chocolate, in India we devour warm halwas, rich kheers, nutritious ladoos, garma garam haldi doodh, among others. The common denominator among these are the ingredients that go in the making. Prepared with a blend of nutrient-dense ingredients, all these delicacies are winter specials! Not only do they energize, but they also boost immunity, helping you stay warm in the chilly months. 

In India, anything that is prepared with ghee, nuts, and aromatic spices automatically becomes inviting and comforting. One such delicacy is Panjeeri laddus. Filling, nutritious, tasty, and an absolute powerhouse, these laddus are rightly called winter specials. 

If you’re like us and prefer relishing and not preparing, RTE laddus can be a boon! But this may not always be the case, as experienced in our Haldiram’s Panjeeri Ladoo review. This year, we ordered a box from Bikano, and here’s our Bikano Panjeeri Laddu review.

Was our experience better with this brand?

2. Main Ingredients

Since Panjeeri laddus are relished for the nutritional benefits, with this parameter, we set to decode whether or not the are prepared using good quality ingredients. 

3. Taste

This winter special can be gobbled down if the invigorating aroma and flavors of ghee, roasted flours and nuts, and aromatic spices are spot-on.

Additionally, the freshness of nuts, sweetness are other aspects determining taste. 

4. Appearance

Are the laddus identical in shape and size? Do they have the classic ‘laddu’ shape? Are these topped with nuts or are nuts inside the laddu?

Do the laddus show a rough, grainy surface or are they smooth?

5. Texture

Though semolina is primarily used to bind the ingredients together, it adds a grainy, ‘karara’ texture. Was this observed with these packaged laddus?

6. Price

Bikano Panjeeri laddu price is Rs 240 for a 400-gram box. 

7. Shelf Life

These laddus have a shelf life of six months.

Bikano Panjeeri Laddu – Detailed Review

Here is our experience with Bikano Panjeeri Laddus. 

 

Bikano Panjeeri Laddu Product Specifications
Price Rs 240
Main Ingredients Sugar, Whole Wheat Flour (31.9%), Hydrogenated Vegetable Fat, Gum Acacia, Almond (1.91%), Cashew (1.91%), Cucumber Seeds, Dry Ginger, Cardamom
Calories Per serve- 161 Kcal
Shelf Life Six months

 

A 400-gram box holds 11 regular-sized laddus that are more or less identical. To put into perspective, one laddu would be 30-35 grams. While some have more sugar crystals on the surface, others had cucumber seeds (magaz), bits of cashews, and almonds too. Overall, the laddus looked grainy, as they should.

Owing to the inviting aroma, we jumped right into tasting. 

Texture- These have a coarse sand-like texture. The firmness of the bite is accompanied with mild graininess which comes from sugar crystals and gond (edible gum). This was observed in most laddus. On the other hand, the crunch from nuts was overloaded in some and sparse in others. 

We appreciate how the laddus did not feel undesirably oily on the palette or fingertips. 

The taste is homestyle. Spot-on sweet, a warming flavor of roasted flour, nuts, seeds- Bikano Panjeeri Laddus hit the mark in terms of taste. We refrained from giving this a full rating on the taste parameter due to uneven distribution of nuts and lack of ghee.
