Gollum Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 (edited) 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 4. Kalo Jaam...prefer it over Gulab Jamun 5. Shahi Tukda/Double Ka Meetha (Hyderabad) 6. Rasmalai 7. Malpua of Puri (Odisha) 8. Kerala Style Halwa 9. Badu Shah (South) or the Bihar/UP version that is Balushahi Honorable mentions: Kaju Pista Roll, Langcha, Lobongo, Gajar Ka Halwa, Soan Papdi, Mishti Doi, Rice Kheer, Jalebi, Imarti/Jangiri.

There are quite a few but one I absolutely love is ghevar. Bikaneri Rasgullas are quite famous too. Probably on par with Bengali ones.

rahulrulezz Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 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. Turning_track and Gollum 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asterix Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 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... Gollum, Under_Score and Switchblade 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FischerTal Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Shrikhand, ras malai, there’s this sweet called kathod/khaja found in nathdwara, rajasthan. My family goes there frequently to pray at shrinathji temple. Also, their mohanthaal is really good Switchblade, Gollum and Turning_track 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turning_track Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 @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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
