Sweet Blessings Await
Ganesh Chaturthi is a time for devotion and delicious treats. In 2025, embrace the spirit of the festival by preparing traditional milk-based prasad at home.
This gesture will bring joy and invoke the blessings of Lord Ganesha, making the celebrations even more special and memorable.
Kalakand's Creamy Charm
Begin with the classic Kalakand, a delightful milk cake. Its soft, grainy texture and subtle sweetness make it a perfect offering. This treat is loved across India, representing the rich culinary heritage that adds a special touch to the festive celebrations, especially in Maharashtra.
Rabri, Peda, Payasam Time
Indulge in the richness of Rabri, the sweetness of Peda, and the creamy goodness of Payasam. Rabri is thickened, sweetened milk, while Peda offers dense sweetness, both widely popular in North India. Payasam (Kheer) is a South Indian favourite, ensuring everyone enjoys the festivity.
Kheer and Barfi Magic
Next, savour the simple yet satisfying Kheer (rice pudding) and the dense, milky Milk Barfi. Kheer’s comforting taste is a staple in Indian households, while Milk Barfi brings its own sweetness. These are perfect for any gathering, spreading happiness during the festivities.
Basundi, Rasgulla, Sandesh
Experience the sweetness of Basundi, the spongy delight of Rasgulla, and the delicate Sandesh. Basundi offers a creamy, rich taste common in Western India, while Rasgulla and Sandesh represent the culinary pride of Bengal, both adding variety to the prasad.
Paneer Ladoo, Simply Sweet
Finally, try the Paneer Ladoo, which melts in the mouth and embodies a pure, simple sweetness. This easy-to-make sweet treat is a perfect finishing touch to your home-made prasad, guaranteeing a memorable Ganesh Chaturthi in 2025.
