Gulkand Cake with Chocolate Ganache
Yes, this is kind of a fancy cake by the name but the inspiration behind it can be the very trending Chocolate pan (which I am just assuming) and you all must have tried chocolate pan I believe, if not try this amazing cake that is so simple and the flavors are so refreshing that you will love to bake it again. Else you can also try the Chocolate pan.
I baked this cake on my Dad's birthday and the cake came out to be so good that it was finished very quickly. It is an eggless cake and the Gulkand I used is from Haldighati, Udaipur, where the locals have their own small distillation plants at their home to extract rose water and prepare this amazing Gulkand. This Gulkand is made of rock sugar or mishri as we call it, which is considered to be healthier as compared to the normal sugar that we consume daily. So its kind of a healthy cake with amazing taste.
