Dulal's Palm Candy has been made the same way since before India's Independence. Many products claim to be Tal Mishri — but only one carries the original name, the registered trademark, and 90+ years of unbroken heritage.
Important Notice to Our Customers
Several products in the market are sold under names resembling Dulal's Tal Mishri — including misspelt labels, copied packaging, and products using our founder's name without authorisation. The only authentic Dulal's Palm Candy bears our Registered Trade Mark (®) and is manufactured exclusively at our West Bengal facility.
When Dulal's Palm Candy was first established, the founder crystallised pure Palmyra palm sap in clay pots with no idea the product would outlast empires, partition, and the birth of a new nation. The Dulal's name — now protected as a Registered Trade Mark by the Government of India — has stood for uncompromising purity ever since.
That name has never been licensed to any other manufacturer. There is no authorised reseller producing Dulal's Palm Candy under a different label. If a product does not carry our trademark, it is not ours — regardless of how similar it looks or what name it uses.
Our third generation continues the same tradition — the same Palmyra palm trees, the same clay pots, the same zero-chemical process. This is what 90 years of integrity looks like.
When someone buys a fake Tal Mishri, they are not just getting the wrong brand — they may be getting chemically processed sugar masquerading as a natural product.
Many imitation Tal Mishri products are made from refined cane sugar that has been artificially bleached and shaped to look like palm candy crystals. They carry none of the Ayurvedic properties of genuine palm candy — and the chemicals used in whitening and processing are never declared on the label.
Some sellers use names that deliberately sound like Dulal's — "Dulal Tal Mishri", "Dulal Palm Candy", or "Original Tal Mishri" — without any legal right to do so. Others copy the visual style of our packaging. These are not variants of our product. They are counterfeits, and purchasing them funds exactly the practices we have spent 90 years refusing to adopt.
If you are buying Tal Mishri for its Ayurvedic benefits — digestion, cough relief, throat health, cognitive clarity — an imitation product made from refined cane sugar will do nothing. It does not contain the natural iron, potassium, and plant-based minerals that only genuine Palmyra palm sap carries. You would essentially be taking refined sugar and calling it medicine.
Five things to check before you buy — every single time.
Every genuine pack of Dulal's Palm Candy carries the ® symbol alongside our brand name. This trade mark is registered with the Government of India. No imitation product has the legal right to use it. If you do not see ® on the packaging, it is not Dulal's.
The label must clearly state "Dulal's Palm Candy" with the manufacturer address in West Bengal. Any product without this exact manufacturer information is not the authentic article, regardless of what the brand name says.
The safest way to guarantee authenticity is to buy directly from our official website — dulalspalmcandy.com. If you are purchasing from a marketplace like Amazon or Flipkart, verify that the seller name matches our official store listing. Do not buy from unknown third-party sellers offering Dulal's at suspiciously low prices.
Genuine Dulal's Tal Mishri crystals are naturally white to very light cream in colour — never pure brilliant white (which indicates chemical bleaching) and never yellow or brown (which indicates unrefined jaggery). The crystals dissolve cleanly in water, leaving no chemical aftertaste. If the crystals dissolve leaving a caramel-coloured residue or artificial sweetness, they are not genuine palm candy.
If you are ever uncertain about a product's authenticity — whether you saw it in a local shop, received it as a gift, or found it on an online platform — please contact us directly. We are happy to verify any batch number, seller name, or product photograph. Protecting our customers from counterfeits is something we take personally.
No imitation can manufacture this kind of proof. These are real publications — from real decades — and they all point to the same product: the one, original Dulal's Palm Candy.
Dulal's Tal Mishri featured in one of Bengal's most-read newspapers — as far back as the early 1950s, before most Indian brands even existed.
Front-page feature in the 29 November 1951 edition of Keshari — Kolkata's cultural magazine — and again in the 13 Agrahayan 1358 issue.
A landmark editorial by Chiranjeev Bhattacharya called Dulal's "a diamond in a golden wrapper" — documenting the clay pot crystallisation process in detail.
Legendary Bengali author Samaresh Basu (Kalkut) personally endorsed Dulal's Sypam Ayurvedic Syrup in a handwritten letter — preserved in the family archive to this day.
Order from dulalspalmcandy.com and you will receive the only Dulal's Palm Candy that has ever existed — made the same way, by the same family, in the same place, for over 90 years.
