Tips to keep in mind
Keep it simple. One beautifully presented, delicious mithai will be much more appreciated than a confusing array with lots of variety.
Most mithai can be prepared a day or two in advance if stored correctly. Use that time to your advantage so that you don’t have to rush around at the last minute.
Always keep some dried fruits and nuts in your pantry for emergencies – with these to hand you can whip up something delicious at a moment’s notice.
Think out of the box. You don’t always have to use the same flavour combinations. Do a little research to find out what goes well together and apply something new to your mithai. Fruits and Nuts in various combinations add an extra zing to desserts
A little goes a long way. Keep the portion serving sizes small, people can always help themselves to more if they wish.

The food trends in India have always followed the paths of exploration, and now with these newly-fangled fusion desserts — there is no going back for this food fad. Culinary traditions now are being revived, so try these fusion dessert recipes and indulge your sweet tooth to some extraordinaire desserts.
