What is Kilao dry fruit? Hunza Chocolate/Hunza Candy?
Walnut Kelawo کیلاو (also spelled Kilao) stands as a delectable specialty hailing from Gilgit Ghizer. Crafted with finesse, this delicacy immerses walnuts in a luscious blend of Honey, Mulberry, and Grape juice. The nuts, meticulously threaded by hand, undergo sun-drying to achieve a delightful crispiness. Once naturally dried, they are dipped into a chocolate-like concoction comprising Mulberries, Grapes, Honey, and Wheat Flour.
Kilao is prepared by coating Walnut halves with a sweetened paste of grapes juice & mulberries thickened with flour and dried in the sun. No sugar added. Organic/Original Kilao.‘
