- Falooda is one of the best make-ahead desserts for your Diwali, Thanksgiving, or Christmas party. You can soak basil seeds, prepare the jelly, or even cook the noodles and keep them in the refrigerator 2 to 3 days in advance.
- For the best results, see that all items are chilled.
- Assemble only when you are ready to serve.
- You can check how to make the jelly if you love to add it.
- The sweetness from the rose syrup is sufficient for the faluda. Based on the brand of rose syrup you choose, add or skip the sugar.
- If sabja or chia seeds are unavailable, you can add boiled sabudana or tapioca pearls.
- For kulfi falooda, use kulfi (Indian frozen dessert) instead of regular vanilla ice cream.
- To make it easier, falooda mixes are also readily available in the market.
