How to Make Rose, Pistachio & Saffron Fudge
  1. Prepare the container by greasing and lining it with baking paper.
  2. Melt butter, white chocolate chips, and sweetened condensed milk in separate heavy-bottom pans over low heat for about 5 minutes until everything is smoothly blended.
  3. Infuse the milk by heating it with saffron threads until it just starts to boil.
  4. Mix in 1/4 cup of pistachios and 1/2 teaspoon of ground cardamom into each fudge mixture.
  5. For pink fudge: mix in Rooh Afza and dried rose petals; for yellow fudge, incorporate the saffron-infused milk.
  6. Layer the fudge mixtures into your prepared container, pressing down firmly on each layer.
  7. Chill the layered fudge in the refrigerator for 2 hours and let it rest for an additional 30 minutes before cutting.
