Silver Leaf in India
Pure silver leaf has a long tradition in Indian culture; called vark, or varak, it was found on a wide variety of sweets and foods. It is likely that it’s outstanding visual appearance and antibacterial properties played an important role when it came to presenting and preserving silver-plated specialties on Indian markets and in street restaurants.

What is the difference between Silver Leaf Loose and Transfer?
Loose Silver Sheets: silver leaf sheets are cut into squares, then inserted between booklets with extra thin paper pages. The silver leaf sheets can be easily lifted and handled with our large special brush.
Transfer Silver Sheets: once the silver leaves are cut into squares and inserted into the booklet interleaved with tissue squares, we apply pressure to adhere the silver leaves to the tissue. You can lift each silver leaf transfer with its backing tissue from the booklet and place it silver side down onto your food surface. Then press gently on the paper to help the silver release and stick to food surfaces.
