One of my friends brought "Somasi" from India. I vaguely remember this sweet from my childhood days(1st grade or so). Its been a long while since I have seen or tasted it. I vaguely remember the presence of a green color plastic mould at my place, to make somasis. Dont know how many of these kind of sweets are becoming extinct with the popularity of "mysorepa", "jilebi", bengali sweets and other pistha/cashew/almond based sweets.
After coming to the US, I found "acchu murukku" in a chinese store under the name " Rose cookies". Tasted exactly the same as those we get in India.
**Sigh**
