Is Sarkara Varatti very sweet?
It has a balanced, natural sweetness derived from jaggery rather than refined sugar, complemented by the warmth of ginger and cardamom, ensuring it is not cloyingly sweet.
-
What is the difference between regular banana chips and Sarkara Varatti?
While regular banana chips are sliced thin and salted for maximum crunch, Sarkara Varatti is sliced thicker and coated in jaggery syrup, making it a sweet, festive alternative.

Once opened, transfer the chips into an airtight container or keep the pouch tightly sealed. Avoid exposure to moisture, which can make the jaggery coating sticky.
