What do people look forward to the most during the auspicious occasion of Diwali or Deepawali? It is sweets, and more sweets, of course! Young, middle-aged, or old, everybody wants to munch and crunch until the stomach declares, “I just cannot take it anymore!” Family get-togethers, brand-new outfits, noisy firecrackers and gifts, although equally eagerly awaited, tend to take second place when plates of sweets are around!
Cashew nuts Galore
What do they call those diamond-shaped, white-colored concoctions, with their silvery surfaces? Yes, one has guessed it right! They are delicacies containing tasty, crushed cashew nuts (kaju). They are so mouth-watering in nature, that it is possible to gobble them up in great numbers, and still keep asking for more! If the giver were to send across half-a-kg or a kg of Kaju barfi or Kaju katli during Diwali, the recipient would cherish the person and the gift for life! It is as if the occasion receives an extra dose of sweetness through the arrival of these extremely popular Diwali sweets.
In case, the giver was to forward a bunch of heavenly-smelling, brilliant red (or any other colour) roses, along with the package of sweets, the recipient’s joy would know no bounds. After all, the roses convey a message of deep love and bonding! Other choices include sweet-looking carnations, flamboyant Gerbera, stately lilies, and royal Orchids.
Juicy Savouries
It is possible that the receiver is extremely fond of things that one may swirl and twirl around the tongue prior to letting them slide gently down the throat! Deep-brown gulab jamuns and oh-so-soft rasgullas fall into this category. Oh, they are some of the most coveted of sweets amongst the juicy variety. One may feel the need to send across several kg of either sweet or both sweets, when deciding upon them as Diwali gifts. This is because no individual would be satisfied with having just one rasgulla or gulab jamun! The tummy always has room for one more, especially when it is that of a child!
Laddoos and Pedas
True, they are rather common in nature, when compared to the other varieties of Diwali sweets. However, what helps them to stay ever popular is the fact that both of them may be prepared with diverse kinds of ingredients. To illustrate, cooks use dry fruits, wheat flour, chickpea flour, saffron, etc, in accordance with the kind of laddoo or peda that is to be prepared. Whatever be the contents of these sweets, they continue to make an appearance at any and every occasion!
The examples outlined above, are just a few chosen ones from the vast gallery of sweets that come into play during various festivals, especially Diwali. However, it is not possible to list or even describe, every single one of them over here. Suffice to say that there are the traditional varieties, and the hybrid ones created by enterprising food scientists! Yes, mixes-and-matches do happen, for appeasing already satiated taste buds! Nevertheless, no one complains. Instead, everyone awaits the results of every experiment quite eagerly!
