Strawberry custard powder, whisked into hot milk to set. Used where a dessert wants the custard itself to carry flavour and colour rather than staying plain.
Orange jelly crystals, dissolved in hot water and set in the fridge. A sharper set than the tropical flavours, and the usual choice for a children's table.
Roasted vermicelli, the fine wheat noodle used for sheer khurma and seviyan — simmered in sweetened milk rather than boiled and drained. Roasted already, so it needs no browning first.
