Strictly Indian ones, please don't bring in French or Brazilian specialties. IMO the best part of Indian cuisine is our range of sweets. 

 

I love (not a ranking):

 

1. Bhapa Sandesh

2. Kheer Kadam

3. Malai Chom Chom

Bikaneri Rasgullas are quite famous too. Probably on par with Bengali ones.

There is this famous Bangladeshi sweet shop in Toronto and OH MY GOD, I have missed so much in my life. No North Indian, no South Indian sweets come close to these Bongs (sorry) mithai. They know their $hit when it comes to mithai. Man those mithais are something else. It’s been three years and i am hooked to these Bong mithais.

Being a Bengali, I love Bengali sweets. But the ones dishes out by Haldiram’s...

:embarrassed:

But I love Motichur Laddus... & Imartis... Maybe because I’m born and brought up in MP...

 

As a combo I love Khoya/Mawa/Plain Jalebis with Rabri...

Also a combo of Warm Gulab Jamuns with Custard and a dollop of Vanilla Ice Cream does it for me... [emoji14]

As a kid, used to love shakar.  Have developed a liking for textured sweets. don't have sweets much anymore but once in a while. some things i  like  or used to like:

 

panjeeri/khoya pinnis (like them warm)

dhoda

gajrela with khoya on top :P

suji da halua / bread halua

rasgullas but prefer with the coconut textured

rasmalai

milk cake barfi ( again love it for the texture)

amritiya/jalebis but prefer the khoya variety

pista kulfi

malpuras back in the days

@Gollum I agree with your list except last two & I'm really surprised nobody mentioned Ghevar. I had never tasted it before but a week back my parents got it from Sonipat made from pure ghee & I'm devouring it since the last few days :smile:
