Desserts

Desserts are sweet courses or dishes typically served at the end of a meal. They can take many forms, including cakes, pastries, puddings, ice creams, and fruits. Desserts are often characterized by their sweetness and can include various ingredients such as sugar, chocolate, fruit, dairy, and spices. They may be baked, frozen, or prepared as confections. While the primary purpose of a dessert is to provide a sweet finish to a meal, it can also serve as a treat or indulgence on its own. Desserts are a significant part of many cultures’ culinary traditions, with each culture offering unique variations reflecting local ingredients and tastes.
