Saffron Milk Cake is also known as three milk cake is a perfect Crowed- Pleasing Dessert. This heavenly dessert is definitely not for those who are watching their calorie intake and keen on low diet food. But there is no harm in indulging once in a while and relish this royal dessert cake, of course within a set limit. For this, you can always give festival time as an excuse and also share it with your loved ones.
