Welcome bakers to week 46! Happy Diwali! Diwali is the Hindu festival of lights with its variations also celebrated in other Indian religions. It symbolises the spiritual “victory of light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance”. (from Wikipedia). Diwali 2023 will be celebrated on November 12th. Diwali celebrations can last for about five days.
I personally recommend to all of those who are not familiar with the holliday (like myself) to read and learn about it. It is great to know more about other cultures’ holidays, and if any of you celebrate it, please feel free to comment and let us know with your own words!
But here are some recipes I found online of what is usually baked for this holiday:
