Sweet is one of the five basic tastes and is almost universally regarded as a pleasurable experience. As a token of my love for sweets, I am announcing the event 'Sweet series', with an attempt to compile the innumerable variety of sweets. I have divided the sweets into 8 broad categories. One category for each month. The categories are,
6. Halwa, kathli, burfi & peda
7. Baked sweets - Cakes, pies, cookies, strudels etc and chocolate & toffees
8. Sweet with rice/wheat as main ingredient, diabetic friendly sweets and other sweets that does not come under any of the aforesaid categories.
This month category is Puran Poli & sweet chapathis/rotis.
To participate in this event, please have these in mind.
1. Cook anything sweet that come under the 'category of the month' - Puran Poli & sweet chapathis/rotis and post the recipe with picture on your blog. Recipes posted from Apr 29 2008 to June 30th 2008 will be accepted. Multiple entries welcome.

You can count me in.
Diabetic friendly category will be good addition to the list. For one month we will cook with non sugar - sweet treats. Just came to my mind :)
That is a wonderful section: Diabetic friendly sweets. I have added that to the post. Thank you so much.
Just mailed u with my entries...hope u got them
Mythreyee, will laddoos fall under the second category?
Boondhi Laddus come under deep fried category. The second category includes sweets/laddus that are not deep fried. For example: smalls balls made out of different flours as well as poha balls with jaggery as a binding agent etc. My previous comment that I deleted, I had boondhi laddu in my mind.
Hey Mythreyee, thanks for visiting my blog. Sure I will send not only my Puran Poli entry but I will also send Sweet Potato Roti, Gur Poli recipes
Hi
A very good idea indeed.I just finished sending you the link to my sesame sweet roti.
Hi Mythreyee,
This is Sailaja. Still now I didn't participate in any event. Even I like to send 'Puran Poli' to the event. But to send,I think, I have to make tht again. Because, My pural poli got torn when I made at tht time. Will try to make by this month end and will send to you. Thank you for motivating me to participate ... Mythreyee.
Sailu.
Hi mythreyee,
You have created the logo very nicely.
After keeping ur sweets series logo in my blog, I found my blog very colourful.
