- Vark abstract "Vark or varak (Sanskrit: वरक), is any foil composed of a pure metal, typically silver, sometimes gold, used for garnishing sweets in South Asian cuisine. The silver is edible, though flavorless. Vark is made by pounding silver into a sheet a few micrometres thick, and backed with paper for support; this paper is peeled away before use. It is extremely brittle and breaks into smaller pieces if touched. Vark sheets are laid or rolled over some South Asian sweets. Edible silver and gold foils on sweets, confectionary and desserts is not unique to the Indian subcontinent; other regions such as Japan and Europe have long used precious metal foils as food cover and additive, including specialty drinks such as Danziger Goldwasser.Vegetarian lobbyists claim that vark is commonly hammered between layers of animal fat or hide and is thus a non-vegetarian product. However, there are certain vegetarian options of varaq available in markets. Like silver vark also there is gold vark in the form of gold leaf, gold flakes and gold dust.".
