Garden party IV

This is the finale of my garden party after garden partyI, garden partyII and garden partyIII. A trio of bite sized desserts was offered with a cup of tea: mango crisp, coconut cardamom flan, and almond daisies (almond burfi molded into flowers). All of these recipes are featured in my book Entertaining From an Ethnic Indian Kitchen.







For more memorable centerpieces, tablescapes, and recipes (including gluten free recipes), please check out my book, Entertaining From an Ethnic Indian Kitchen, at my website komalinunna.com.


I am joining Susan's Between Naps on the Porch for Tablescape Thursday, Foodie Friday, and Cindy for Show and Tell.

    This is such a treat for the eyes -- I'm certain that it was also a treat for those who got to taste too! I love how you've set these.

    Oh, those desserts look amazing...I would be so happy with the cardamom flan. Cardamom is one of my favorite spices to use in desserts and breads, lots of it!

    My favorite dessert is the almond daisies and the small china plates in which you served them. These are great ideas for a party.

    Amulya,
    That coconut cardamom flan is in my book, Entertaining from an ethnic Indian kitchen. I believe you already bought the book.
