Food is a lavish affair and among the most important things at a wedding, regardless of whether you are being married during the day or night, lavishly or privately. Although the main course may feature a variety of cuisines, desserts are always the pièce de résistance. Thus, most Indian weddings have a spread that is usually very generous with a range of options. Indian Wedding Sweets are creamy, sweet, and overwhelmingly delicious. However, it’s not for everyone. We put a lot of thought into our wedding décor, menu and clothes, but fail to do anything innovative with our wedding mithai. As a result, most couples end up eating ghee-laden laddoos and barfis. If this is something you want to avoid, there is hope yet. Whether you are dairy-free, vegan, or just want to avoid any extra sugary calories, here are some brilliant alternatives for Indian wedding sweets you must try.
Candy Bar:
A candy stall at your wedding can be a fun installation with multiple flavours and variant colour options. Sure, candy bars are full of sugar, but they’re also a delicious way to avoid the heavy cream that comes with many traditional Indian mithais! For those who are health conscious, candy bars are filled with nuts and tend to be easier on the waistline because they fill you up quickly and are rich in protein. You can relive your childhood since members of every age love and enjoy candies.
S’mores Bar:
A gooey marshmallow, melted chocolate, and crisps will be a hit with everyone. Install a s’mores station where guests can customise their s’mores with chocolate as per their liking. It can be an activity where everyone will have fun together. Furthermore, you can also have flavoured marshmallows placed near the couple’s seating area. So guests can feed the couple marshmallows as opposed to the laddoos.
Macarons:
We have hardly ever met somebody who doesn’t like Macarons. This charming French delicacy is a great dessert option with delectable flavoured cream wrapped within two biscuits. They’re classy, tasty, and come in a variety of flavours. Macarons are a light dessert, so you and your guests can eat as many as you like without getting too full. Consequently, these mouth-watering treats will melt in your mouth and make everyone who tastes them smile, making them the ideal treat for your special day.
Mini Cupcakes:
Cute and adorable, a platter full of miniature, colourful mini cupcakes at your wedding is sure to be a huge hit. Furthermore, you also get the freedom to choose interesting flavours like chocolate, red velvet, strawberry, cream, and so on. You can even have adorable sayings and pictures put on them. Your guests won’t be able to resist taking a mouthful of these because they have so many mouth-watering qualities.
Fruits:
If you’re worried about the dangers of dairy or sugar in all its forms, why not keep it simple with a nice fruit display? For couples who love fresh fruits, an edible fruit arrangement is a great option. Fruits are naturally sweet and tasty, and they can be arranged in lovely ways to look both festive and appetising.
