This month’s theme for our Muslim Food Blogger’s Challenge is ‘Ramadan Memories’. Falooda is one such dessert which always reminds me of Iftar as it was prepared only during this month. There are some dishes which are connected very much to our childhood memories and even if we have it after ages….it still takes us into a state of nostalgia.

| Strawberry Mango Falooda |
I remember during my school days, my mother would prepare the custard, jelly, and vermicelli and keep them in separate containers. Just before the time of iftar, all these were served individually and we as kids were free to make our own combinations and layers of falooda. But my mom made sure that we do not skip the fruit part in the desert.
