* Desserts

Desserts weave a dynamic spell, full of sinful sweetness. They help set the stage for celebration, and some desserts tied to holidays, weddings, and family gatherings make desserts the most memorable and treasured part of the cuisine.

Indian desserts feature unique flavors such as cardamom seeds, saffron, rose essence, almonds, pistachios, cashews, melon seeds, and mangoes. Indian desserts can be simple, homemade affairs like halvas (soft-cooked grain or vegetable desserts) and kheers (milk-based puddings). Or they can be works of art, such as created by halvais (professional sweet makers).

Their presentation is often a visual treat. Artfully served under paper-thin yet edible pure silver leaves: garnished with the thinnest slivers of softened pistachios and almonds, or dusted with coarsely ground nuts and seeds, each dessert tempts the eyes before satisfying the palate.

The allure of desserts is so powerful, they are often hard to resist. Although most Indian desserts are nutritious because they are based on grains and beans, fruits, nuts, and dairy products, they are also calorie-rich so enjoy them, but in moderation.

I recently purchased your Cook'n Recipe Organizer and love it! I have tried several other cookbook programs but found them unsatisfactory.

My main goal was to put my own recipes into a system that was easy and quick. I have put in about 20 so far, and I love it. It is so easy to use.

I have tried several of your recipes and they all have been wonderful!

Thank you!!
