Jaipur : Every year on the night of Diwali, when Lakshmi-Ganesh is worshiped in our house, I have seen that before offering sweets, balls made by roasting paddy, sticks and sweet toys are offered. We used to pick up sweet toys from the temple in the morning and eat them fondly. Although there is no dearth of sweet toys in the market, but nowadays there is a need to be very cautious about hygiene and especially there is more doubt about sweet things. In such a situation, you can prepare sweet toys at home and offer them in the puja on Diwali evening.
For the evening of Diwali, special care is taken of every thing related to puja material and the most important thing is cleanliness, hence things made at home are considered more appropriate. On this day, not only desserts are made to be offered at home, apart from this you can also prepare toys, so let’s know the recipe.
Recipe and ingredients to make sweet toys
You do not need much material to make toys. For this you will need at least 1 bowl of sugar, half cup of water and if you want to increase the taste, you can take green cardamom.
Make sweet toys like this
Pour water in a pan and add cardamom powder along with sugar and keep it to cook. After some time, strings will start forming in it. In this way you prepare syrup of a thick texture, because thin syrup will not set properly. To make toys, you can take silicone molds in which chocolate is set. Put the syrup in it and keep it in air for ten to fifteen minutes. In this way your fresh and hygienic sweet toys will be ready.
