Don't know about you, but we definitely look forward to satiating ourselves with a bowl of tempting kheer at weddings. However, we don't get to see it at a lot of weddings but since you're planning your own menu, might as well give Rice Kheer a try? Don't forget to add those dry fruits!
Jalebi

We know we know jalebi ain't that easy to make, but once you get a grip of it, it isn't a task at all. Add rabri to it, and how much more yummy can this get? Serve it in a modern way by loading the mini glass bowl with rabri and adding a jalebi on the top. Limited quantity, and one great experience
Chia Pudding

Adding our new favorite snack: chia pudding, to the list! With everyone being a health fanatic right now (more due to the pandemic), why not serve a dessert that not only tastes bomb but has health benefits attached to it. Chia pudding is rich in fiber, antioxidants et al and is an excellent source of essential fatty acids. Add your fav fruit to it, and tadaa.
Ice Cream

Whoever said making ice cream at home is not possible was actually lying. And weddings with ice cream is just not possible! While you do have the option purchase in bulk from your fav vendor, but this listicle is all about DIY and we'll highly recommend you to give it a try. Here's a recipe we loved!
Malpua

We like to call is desi pancakes - fried with crisp edges and soft center dunked in sugar syrup!! One of the most loved desserts at an Indian wedding, never did we think that it can easily be made at home. Super duper indulgent, ain't it?
Cheesecake

Move on from traditional cakes and surprise your wedding guests with a cheesecake, instead. It's quite yum and popular amongst the younger generation, who do not wish to take a bite of the gulab jamun. Trust us, no one can resist this offbeat dessert. And if you still have time for your shaadi, ace its recipe, please!
Cake Pops
