About the book-

Low calorie sweets is the best solution for those of you who are torn between limiting your calorie and fat intake, and the temptation to enjoy authentic Indian and International sweets at the same time.
This book is a compilation of 43 delicacies to satisfy your sweet tooth, the low cal way. It includes both traditional Indian recipes as well as International recipes, and has been divided into distinct sections to help you choose the right dessert for the right occasion. The book is broadly divided into INDIAN SWEETS, which includes sections like Halwas and Barfis, Kheer and Phirni, Traditional Sweets with a Twist and Fruity Favorites and INTERNATIONAL SWEETS, which includes Fruit Delights, Ice Creams AND Frozen Desserts, and Choco Treats.
Judiciously replace calorie- and fat-laden ingredients with low calorie alternatives as shown in this book, and satisfy your sweet tooth without any guilt. This book offers a chance for even the health conscious to indulge their sweet-loving taste buds. But remember that even low calorie dishes are best eaten in moderation, as an occasional treat!

This book is surely a treat for all of us who want to cut down on calories and still want to enjoy this FESTIVE SEASON.One can also order books from Tarla Dalal from here.

If any of my friends and fellow bloggers want to host the event for next year, kindly let me know through mail to cookingoodfood@gmail.com. One can check the details of the event here.

  6. Dear Angie, I am sorry dear CSN is very clear that they can ship only to these 3 countries.
    Umm, u can always go for Tarla Dalal and provide me with an address in India, where I can send the book.
    Dear Deepa, I'm really sorry dear, my internet connection has created a havoc in my life, LOL, any page I open takes a long time to open. At times I am patient enough to wait and mostly I lose patience. I will surely be more regular once the problem gets corrected, till then pls bear and pls keep visiting :-)
