Desserts With Saffron?

[Mindy]

I recently had a dessert that was made with saffron as a main ingredient - saffron panna cotta. It was very delicious. I had never thought to use saffron as a seasoning in a dessert. Does anyone know if there are any other traditional Indian desserts which saffron? I'd love to try some others.

Wow that sounds interesting and intriguing. I use saffron in some of my dishes, but have never thought of using it in desserts. I should definitely try this.

I do not know of Indian recipes, but I have had a saffron custard. I know there are similar things to custards in India, so it makes sense they might combine them with saffron. I would try that. Otherwise, I do not know.
