I have the pleasure of hosting this wonderful event from 7 July 2011 until 7 August 2011 and I am looking forward to your wonderful recipes.


The focus of the Celebrate sweets event will be on “ Gujarati sweets” so I am looking forward learning about  some good old fashioned traditional “Gujarati Sweets”.  Please talk to your grannies and discover the hidden gems of Gujarati sweets.  I am keen that all recipes are collected in one place for generations to refer to.

ROUNDUP OF COMPLETE MY THALI EVENT - MITHAI AND SWEETS

It gives me great pleasure to present Complete My Thali Sweets and Mithai roundup. I received 40 entries from 25 different bloggers from round the World for this event and I would like to thank all of you  who contributed your delicious mithai recipes to make this wonderful event a success.  It was lovely to see the variety and passion each blogger has for his or her recipes.

A big thank you to Jagruti of Joy of Cooking for giving an opportunity to host this beautiful event. 

This is the first time I have hosted an event and it has made me realise the amount of work that goes into it.  It's also made me realise that I too should be sending in my entries when other bloggers are hosting an event.  I hope to find more time for this in the future. I would like to thank all of you who took the time to send in your entries.

These are the entries I received. They are in no particular order.
