More Bengali Sweets Which You Have to Try at Least Once in Life

Feels just like yesterday that we were recounting some of the quintessential sweets emanating from Bengali culture. But the fact remains, however, that the list is quite a long one and one discussion is hardly enough to do justice to, or even name, all of them. The thing that has to be understood is that Bengali people renowned the world over owing to their weakness for sweets, and when you come to visit this part of the world, you will really miss out if you somehow do not indulge in the sweetmeats available there. Getting access to the sweets has become easier than ever before as you can simply order the sweets to be delivered to you online. Be that as it may, discussed below are some more Bengali sweetmeats that you need to taste at least once in your life.

You Have to Taste These Bengali Sweets

1. Mishti Doi

There are high chances that you have heard of this delicacy if you are someone from India. Mishti doi literally translates to sweet yoghurt and you will be licking your fingers clean when you taste this delight. Made with a mixture of yoghurt and jaggery, you are going to rue your decision to give mishit doi a miss. The thing to note for you is that you should always try to taste mishit doi as cold as possible, so make sure that it has just been brought out of a refrigerator and given to you.

2. Payesh

Another speciality as far as Bengali sweets are concerned is the payesh. Known as kheer in other parts of the country, you cannot but feel that payesh exceeds all your expectations and how. The thick concoction of milk and semolina or rice will certainly leave a lasting impression on your taste buds and you are going to be clamouring for more.

3. Patishapta

As far as Adhar Sweets’ selection of a lip-smacking range of sweets is concerned, the venerable patishapta cannot be ignored. The mixture of dry fruits, coconut, cardamom, khoya and jaggery results in a preparation that is heavenly sweet yet ever-so-light on your stomach.

These are some of the Bengali sweets that you cannot ignore from tasting at least once. You can rest assured that even this does not name all the sweets that Bengal has to offer, so keep an eye out on this space for even more sweets in the near future.
