Indeed, many Indians would confirm that gulab jamun tops their favourite list of sweets. But very few people know that their favourite dessert has its origins in Persia. These small sweets that are fried in sugar syrup are truly a treat. Not only in Diwali, but this traditional delicacy is the centre of attraction in other festivals too.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>To make a good Diwali gift, you can pair gulab jamuns with other traditional gifts like dry fruits or Ganesha idols.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Diwali_sweets_thali_with_motichoor_laddoos\"><\/span><strong>Diwali sweets thali with motichoor laddoos<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery aligncenter has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.oyegifts.com\/flowers-n-gifts\/vendordata\/product\/diwali-gifts-102.jpg\" alt=\"Diwali Sweets\" \/><\/figure>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Another famous festive sweet is the motichoor laddoo. Even the word motichoor has majestic connotations, as it means &#8216;crushed pearls&#8217;. This sweet is a common choice of prasad for Indian pujas. Similar to gulab jamuns, these laddoos are also fried in sugar syrup. Motichoor laddoos also have a long history, and the common lore is that these laddoos used to serve a medicinal purpose before they became one of the most favourite sweets for Indians. From young kids to elders, everyone loves the generous helping of motichoor laddoos.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Besan_laddoos_with_decorative_packaging\"><\/span><strong>Besan laddoos with decorative packaging<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery aligncenter has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.oyegifts.com\/flowers-n-gifts\/vendordata\/product\/rk-64.jpg\" alt=\"Besan laddoos\" \/><\/figure>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Indian cuisine has no dearth of sweet desserts, and besan laddoos are another crowd favourite. People make these laddoos from gluten-free gram flour, ghee and sugar. We can also store these delicacies for a long time, and they are very popular for festivals or family functions. As the primary ingredient in this sweet is besan, which some say adds protein and fibre, people consider it a healthier alternative. Besan laddoos are also great for satiation, so they can satisfy people&#8217;s sweet cravings without piling on calories. In many online gift portals, Diwali sweets come with beautiful packaging. Decorative items like diyas are often included in sweet boxes.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Kaju_Tea_light_set\"><\/span><strong>Kaju Tea light set<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery aligncenter has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.oyegifts.com\/flowers-n-gifts\/vendordata\/product\/diwali-gifts-16.jpg\" alt=\"Kaju Tea light set\" \/><\/figure>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Kaju Katlis are the highlight of every Diwali celebration, and no one can deny that they love this sweet.

It is a custom for families to gather and enjoy various Indian sweets, and Kaju katlis cannot be an exception. Made with delicious healthy kajus, they help in reducing cholesterol. Thus, even the health-conscious can gorge on this delicious treat.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>You can combine the delicious box of Kaju Katlis with tea lights and gift them to your loved ones on Diwali.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Milk_cakes\"><\/span><strong>Milk cakes<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-5 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.oyegifts.com\/flowers-n-gifts\/vendordata\/product\/ogf-726.jpg\" alt=\"Milk Cakes\" \/><\/figure>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Milk cakes, or as they are more popularly known, kalakand is another crowd favourite.
