The famous author of cookery books has for the first time brought together in this book all the sweets and desserts prepared in all parts of India. Every cooking enthusiast now stands to benefit by it. India is perhaps the only country in the world where sweets are an integral part of food. There is a large variety of sweets in every region while all are basically different to each other in all respects. Bengali rosgulla and north Indian burfi are both prepared from milk, but the way milk is used in each case is entirely different – and so is the taste. Marathi shrikhand is yet another variety in the same family. No wonder, preparation of sweets is a highly specialized subject, verging on art. Prepare these mouth-watering Indian Sweets at home and entertain your family and guests… sweets that have nothing comparable the world over…. Sweets from Bengal, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Mysore, and all over India…. and desserts that are equally delicious …. crammed full of delightful recipes.
