Indian Dessert At Anytime!

Amongst the finest delicacies of India, are the desserts served by the state of West Bengal in India.”Plain Rossogolla”, which is nothing more than soft and mushy versions of “chenna pai”, the latter best eaten when cold, are mostly sold at every sweetmeat shop in Kolkata.While “chenna pai”tells a tune more sweeter than the “american pie”, (if you can excuse my license of citation)on your tastebuds, its rich yellow color just wants you asking more of it.

Such is the popularity of “gur-er-rosogolla”, where the somber white turns into mellowed browns, due to the addition of “patali gur” in it, or other forms of “gur”, as and when available at the souk; that it has been demanded in great quantities abroad and K.C. Das has made a reputation on making it a world renowed tinned commodity available at even the departmental stores of chief developed nations.”Gur”is a fermented and created from spiky looking trees, that make the lush of local fauna, in this state, best noticed thriving near ponds, that are fast being filled up as the population blossoms in this city.Coarse sweets as well as luscious ones are available in plenty at the markets, in each village corner too.

Personally, it tastes fantabulous only when taken warm, during winter nights.Another dessert that runs with every occasion is “doi-mishti”, available in  bhars, or clay molds,that suits the budget of any class of the populace, be it émigrés or natives, and is an superb converse of plain yohurt.You can never have enough of the desserts at the cosmopolitan, since every season there is some variation of the “makha sandesh” that is made into decorative pellets,and sold out  in different shapes and sizes, and there is nothing like it when its done with molasses, which basically come from the state of Uttaranchal, where it is produced in the course of making sugar.The Bengali community have nurtured their chromosonal love for sweets and there has been nothing really to completely replace these varieties now.

So if I really had to reconnoiter the axiom “You can’t eat the cake and have it too”, it would sound like “You can beat the cake and have the cherry topping too!”
