This Diwali, savour guilt-free vegan sweets that keep up the festive spirit without indulging in dairy. From the creamy kheer to nutty barfis and halwas, these plant-based treats deliver the same sweet taste and celebration, showing that tradition and mindful eating can blend beautifully
Coconut laddoos are soft when prepared with coconut milk or jaggery instead of dairy, delivering a naturally sweet, tropical, and guilt-free festive treat.
Loaded with natural sweetness that it gets from dates and crunch from nuts such as cashew, almonds, etc, these rolls are full of flavours, do not use any dairy product, and perfect for gifting or festive indulgence.
Roasted gram flour or besan, when blended with coconut oil, creates the same golden, fragrant richness of classic laddoos, just without ghee, which makes it a wholesome vegan treat.
Comforting and filled with nourishment, this vegan halwa is prepared by using ragi flour, coconut milk, and jaggery for a smooth, festive dessert.
A creamy, fragrant kheer prepared by mixing almond milk and some grated carrots, delivering a perfect, balanced sweetness and festive fervour in every spoonful.
