Description
Vark, Warakh, Silver Leaves or varaka is any foil composed of a pure metal, typically silver, sometimes gold, used for garnishing sweets in South Asian cuisine. The silver leaves is edible, though flavorless. Varak is made by pounding silver into a sheet a few micrometres, and backed with paper for support; this paper is peeled away before use.. It is extremely brittle and breaks into smaller pieces if touched. Extra thin leaves get stuck on hand and then it vanished due to excessively low thickness (due to thickness close to inter-atomic distance). Vark sheets are laid or rolled over some South Asian sweets. Edible silver and gold leaves on sweets, confectionery and desserts is not unique to the Indian subcontinent; other regions such as Japan and Europe have long used precious metal foils as food cover and additive
