New Delhi: Holi is one of the most anticipated and joyful spring holidays that is observed all over India. It is a traditional Hindu celebration that is also known as the festival of colours and it represents the victory of good over evil as well as Lord Krishna and Radha's enduring love. According to the Hindu calendar, Holi will be observed this year on March 8, the full moon day in the Phalguna month.

The festival is marked by colours and just like any other Indian festival, it is also a festival where people indulge in a lovely feast once they are done playing with colours. Listed below are some sweet dishes that you may include in your Holi party.

1. Karanji:

This dish completes the festival of colours. Maida and salt make up the outer layer, while the stuffing varies from state to state. Some fill it with mawa and dry fruits, while others stuff it with coconut. The floured sheet is then placed over the inner filling and cut with a cutter into a semicircle form, after which it is deep-fried until it turns golden. Every mouthful is crispy and delicious.

2. Malpua:

Malpua is a typical North Indian dessert made from all-purpose flour, curd (yoghurt), spices, khoya, and nuts and is finally covered in sugar syrup. Malpuas are popular street food and are frequently prepared for festivals and other special events. These syrup-dipped pancakes are a genuine treat, particularly when served with Rabri. They are soft and fluffy on the inside and crisp and lacy on the outside.

3. Almond Malai Kulfi:

Condensed milk, cream, dry fruits, and saffron are used to create this delicious, creamy concoction and is an ideal dish to serve your guests on this occasion.

4. Mango Burfi:

Mango burfi is a symbol of festival delight. It is delectable and a delight for anyone who enjoys mango. Mango, sugar, milk, and dry fruits are all included in this dish. 

5. Kaju Pista Roll:

One of everyone's favourite sweets is the simple-to-make Kaju Pista Roll. Kaju, Pista, Molasses, Milk Solids, and Cardamon are used to make this dish. The cashew nut is mashed and turned into sheets. Then, it is rolled up after being filled with pista and other seasonings.

By creating these unique desserts and sharing the sweetness with everyone,  the festival becomes even more enjoyable.
