Place two store-bought sweet paan and two scoops of vanilla ice cream in a blender, then blend them.
In a bowl, create a layer of store-bought vanilla ice cream, and on top of that, add dollops of the sweet paan paste. Use a toothpick to create swirls.
Sprinkle flavoured fennel seeds and paan-flavored mukhwas (mouth freshener) over the layer.
I love this dessert, the meringue can be made the day before, the fruit and syrup can be done the day before or earlier in the day and all you need to do is whip the cream and put it all together.
