Types of Rusk
- Baby rusk
Baby Rusk is a dry, toasted biscuit designed for babies and toddlers. It is typically made from wheat flour, sugar, and milk and baked until it is complex and crispy. This makes it easy for babies to grasp gum and helps them develop their chewing skills.
- Teething rusks
Teething rusks are dry, biscuit-like snacks designed for babies to chew on during teething. They are made from various grains, such as rice, wheat, or barley, and may be flavored with fruits or vegetables. The rusks' hard texture helps massage and soothe a baby's gums as their teeth erupt.
- Milk rusk
Milk rusk is a complex, dry biscuit or twice-baked bread famous in many countries, particularly South Asia and the Indian subcontinent. It is typically made from wheat flour, milk, sugar, and ghee (clarified butter) and may also contain additional ingredients such as cardamom, nuts, or raisins.
