I believe Gulab Jamun is the king of Indian desserts as it can be found anywhere and everywhere in India let it be a party or a bakery or even in an Indian thali. These soft and spongy jamuns (which look a lot like doughnut holes) soaked in sweet and delicious syrup melt right in your mouth leaving you craving for more.

For those of you who are searching for a quick and yummy recipe for this festival season, Kesar Peda is for you. It is a very easy and mouth watering Indian dessert which can be prepared in a very short amount of time with minimal ingredients. The aroma of saffron with the whole goodness of milk and a soft & grainy texture makes Peda a simple yet delicious dessert. The Peda gets its yellow color and a great flavor from the saffron (kesar).

Any Indian festival is incomplete without some aromatic and drool-worthy sweets. We love spending hours and hours in kitchen preparing those irresistible delicacies. Gujiya is one of the popular sweet dishes which is made during the time of Holi and Diwali.

Fall is my most favorite season for its weather, festivities and not to mention holiday baking. It’s so much fun whipping up batches of chocolate chip cookies, halloween candies, pumpkin pies and, to top off everything, a jar of caramel sauce. I am a sucker for real caramel and love to drizzle it over all my sweet (sometimes not so sweet) goodies. It is very easy to make and I always have a jar within my hand’s reach.

Well, I wanted to start off this recipe with a disclaimer. WHO recently declared that Bacon is injurious to health but I wish I could convince my taste buds. It might take me some time to break-up with bacon as my brother once wisely told me “If there is ever a problem, add B.A.C.O.N to it”.
