The Significance Of Indian Sweets For Celebrations

No Indian marriage is perfect without boxes of 'Mithai' and why goodness for what reason would you not enjoys the taste of Mithai. Firstly, let’s understand what mithai is.

Mithai is an acronym for Indian sweets, this is divided under various unique varieties of sweets by Indian caterers right from barfi, besan laddoo, laddoo, petha, jalebi, to gulabjamun, halwa and many more. The selection of flavours is diverse but it is an unquestionable requirement at an Indian wedding or any other celebratory occasion including birthday, the baby shower, fortunate enough for finally getting the driver's license or even getting good grades in the examination.

We Laguna Restaurants, Indian food caterers in London, believe that sweets are significant and that is the reason we serve our visitors with delightful sweets and yummy flavors that are ideal, to start with, or if you want, our Indian caterers get it served with freshly brewed espresso or tea.

Confectionary, that comprises of sugar and clarified butter is velvety, creamy and rich in taste that screams out ‘eat me’. At times, this is a gained taste and back in our roughage days we wouldn’t dare about galloping down the pieces of barfi due to our belief that ghee is not good for you, thank heavens it is slightly the inverse these days.

An extravagance treats with a cuppa, maybe the Indian caterers that line the famous shopping streets over the UK have believed that if the mithai is oily or highly rich, it won’t sell.

The method of preparing Mithai appears to be simple yet the consistency must be perfect. Sugar/jaggery/maple syrup that hasn’t thickened can turn up in the mithai not setting up perfect.

Why is Mithai significant for celebrations?

As per Hinduism, all the ingredients in the mixture including milk, sugar, and ghee, prepared by the Indian caterers, are viewed as ‘sattvic’ which implies unadulterated and can be scooped by anyone, even spiritual pioneers and vegans.

Due to their purity, mithai is often offered to the divine beings and devotees in temples.
