  3. Yes, that's a nice name for that. But too bad I can't make them as I am a vegetarian. I am definitely going to try your carrot cake.

  4. Kheema parcels or bundles like Laavanya and Sagari have suggested?

  5. As this is the Chinese New Year Season, I can't help but notice that the little parcels are shaped like tiny "money bags". In olden day china, people used to carry coins in a money bag.... for Chinese New Year, the money bag became like a symbol of wealth.

    So to cut the long story short, what abaout Kheema Money Bags? =)
