No, it is not. I have added deep orange food color to the batter and
the sugar syrup. The addition of orange color only makes them look
elegant and presentable, and it has no impact on the taste. Thus, adding
food color is entirely optional, you can either skip it or swap it with
some crushed saffrons for natural food color. With color or without
color, these ladoos always turn out delightful.
