These pedas are chewy in texture and not like normal soft ones because  mango puree is used  in these. Few days back we had bought Kesar mango puree from the store and it was lying there in the refrigerator, and since we had enough of regular mango lassi, mango jam, etc. I  thought of preparing something different this time. So used it in making pendas. If you have fresh mangoes, you can use can make  puree and use them.
