After the long devoted hours of 'Roza', some sinful sweet dishes crave to gleam on 'Dastarkhwan' to melt down your senses and boost the sense of 'Iman'.
Sinful, because they may mess with your health goals, and sweet, because you need some saccharine hopes to counter the outburst of worldly chaos. These happy desserts from Mumbai, the Desi Lala Land, are much more than a taste of heaven on earth.
During Iftar, when you pray for well-being and peace, don't forget to serve and cherish the mouth-watering, scrumptious dishes to reward yourself for happy devotion and blissful deeds.

Infused with protein and probiotics, some yummy bites of these sweet squares can boost immunity and prevent illness in the holy month.
