Putiram's kochuri with alur torkari and radha ballabi with cholar dal has always been legendary. Old timers recall that a plate of radhaballabi used to cost only Rs 4 at one time. Putiram is also synonymous with the rajbhog, a larger version of the rossogolla, shor bhaja, abar khabo, shada doi and in winter, gurer rossogolla.

It is said that Putiram was probably the first Bengali sweet shop to have introduced dry fruits such as cashew and pista in mishti. 150 years later, this shop still is as popular as it was when it started.
