- Also make sure gulkand used is also of good quality.
- While the traditional modak shape is iconic, don't be afraid to experiment with different shapes and sizes to make your modaks unique and visually appealing.

- Enhance the presentation by garnishing your modaks with slivered almonds, pistachios, or edible rose petals. This not only adds visual appeal but also extra flavor.
