sweet imprints...

I recently became the owner of these beautifully crafted Sandesh moulds, that my mother found while clearing her old trunks.

Having spent most part of my childhood summer vacations in Calcutta, West Bengal where my grandparents lived for decades, my love for Bengali sweets and especially Sandesh is interwoven with my memories of days spent lazying around in the wrought-iron balcony with smooth red-oxide flooring... ( more on that later;-)

So when my mother brought these precious little pieces of terracotta moulds I was thrilled.

I just had to share these photographs with all of you.

Hope you like them.
