| Vandy That was me in Ooty at the fudge shops. First time being sick I could definitively trace it back to what and where I ate and not blame some kind of mystery bug  |

| Quite a few typical Punjabi sweets have been already mentioned and overlap with sweets from other northern states. Some of them and my favourites are. Jalebi (with hot milk and without) Ladoo Khoye di Barfi Khoye da gajrela Kheer with soggi(made with milk) Kheer with soggi (made with rass .. (sugarcane juice))yum yum Parsad with soggi This is all making my mouth water....  |

Ice Halwa That's another addition to the list ICE HALWA. Thin crisp slices of coloured flavoured arrowroot sweet flour.. Quote:

| Adding a few more the muslim varities of Falooda Zamzam Phirni (set in small earthen containers)comes in different flavours Aflatoon very colourful Icecreams with umpteen flavours made by hand sanchas (containers) available at very very few places in india. texture is totally different During winter go to any place in UP you will have handcarts with rewaries heaped at every street corner Just looking at them makes you gain weight As far as i remember Mohan thal and Ghewar originated in Sind |
