Saffron
Mishri

Chapter 03

The
Craft

Our artisans have no machines on the floor. Just fire, brass vessels, and a process learned from their parents, who learned it from theirs. Sweetness that took two weeks to make tastes different from sweetness that took two minutes.

Each batch takes seventy-two hours from field to finish.

Chapter 04

Slow

"I did not start this to build a brand. I started it because I missed the way my grandmother's kitchen smelled."
— Founder & Managing Director, ZUCERO

Tamanna grew up watching her grandmother prepare mishri the old way. When she could not find it anywhere as an adult, she went looking for the people who still knew how to make it.
