New Kulfi Centre
A second-generation, single-lineage kulfi maker whose no-churn method is stated explicitly and whose ingredient sourcing (Benaras jaggery, Ratnagiri/Devgad Alphonso mango) is named rather than generic — the strongest kulfi candidate here, and the one that most directly answers the city's editorial question.
What to order
Malai kulfi, named as what Virat Kohli tried on a recent visit; the flavour range also includes guava with chilli powder, jaggery, dried cranberry and jamun
What we know
- No-churn method stated explicitly: sweetened milk poured into copper moulds, packed in barrels of ice and salt, left to set for six hours in the traditional method described
- Named ingredient provenance: jaggery from Benaras, Alphonso mangoes from Ratnagiri and Devgad
- Second generation of the same family (Sahdev Ram Tripathi to son Mahesh Tripathi) still running the business
- Production has moved from the original barrel method to a dedicated company unit in Mazgaon processing up to 320 litres of milk a day in summer — a named production facility, not a third-party contractor
- Ships nationally and to Qatar with dry-ice packaging and a stated 25-day delivery guarantee, evidence of a following beyond the neighbourhood
