You can add any fruits like pineapple, pomegranate, guava,mango or any seasonal fruits if your choice
Pineapple is one preferred fruit for fruit pachadi but I didn't have it I skipped
Always prefer ripe fruits for the pachadi
Rose essence, pineapple essence, edible camphor can be added for extra flavor
If desired add food color
Avoid closing the pachadi while it is hot, it might make the kalyana sweet pachadi watery
Adding rice flour is optional for the pachadi but it gives nice texture to the pachadi
Always cook the sugar syrup to string consistency else fruit pachadi won’t hold well
Dry fruits of your choice can be added for extra flavor
