🇮🇳 Did you know?
Rasmalai comes from Bengal — 'ras' means juice or syrup, and 'malai' means cream. This recipe blends it with a Mexican tres leches (three milks) cake.
💬 Let's talk
"This cake uses milk in three different ways. Can you name all the things we make from milk at home?"
🎨 Activity
Pour a little milk into a saucer of water and watch how it swirls — it's the same magic happening inside this cake.
