About


Everyone must have heard and also tasted Palani panchamirtham. This mixed fruit panchamirtham is very famous in temples(especially perumal koils) of eastern and central parts of Tamil Nadu. They do abishekam for the deity with this panchamirtham and when taken as prasadam, Wow!.... it's simply delicious. Our elders also offer this as a naivedyam. You can also do this when you have many fruits leftover on a function. On the whole, it's a bowl of nutrition.
Note: You can use any fruit of your choice. But for naivedyam, only these fruits are used. You can check out for restrictions on naivedyam from your elders.
You  can also use sugar instead of rock candy
