The quintessential day dedicated to lovers (Valentine’s Day) is almost here. Celebrated with roses, chocolates and sweets it is the day that endears you to your sweetheart, when you offer her sweets with the message: Sweets for a sweet!
Sweets are a weakness with several people. When it comes to sweets, the maxim followed by almost everyone is: Never say Never. No wonder desserts are extremely popular with all age groups. No wonder Ernestine Ulmer said “Life is uncertain. Eat dessert first.”
Desserts make you feel relaxed. After all stressed is desserts spelled backwards! No wonder even during the corona virus it is found that people are busy baking sweet dishes. Almost all agree that a meal is incomplete without dessert.
Asif Iqbal, Executive Chef, Holiday Inn Chennai OMR IT Expressway, states, “A meal is never complete without a dessert so, a Chef’s service is never complete without serving it. Most of the guests who are on diet have options in plenty for some sugar free & jaggery based desserts. So, it does become an important part of the meal.”
Anirudh Amin, Chef de Cuisine, Four Seasons Hotel Bengaluru at Embassy ONE, asserts, “Desserts have always been an important part of the meal for guests as well as general public in various cultures. The urge to end the meal with a dessert has been the norm for ages. One also cannot discount the influence of social media in our lives and there is no better example of an instagrammable food item than a dessert. “
