As the grand festival of Durga Puja 2025 approaches, it captures the attention of the Bengali community as lights glow, the air fills with dhak beats, and shops are overrun by shoppers.
But no Durga Puja is complete without the irresistible Bengali ‘mishti’ (desserts). From Rosogolla to Kheer Kodom, every pandal hopping and long nights of adda is accompanied by mishti mukh. Bengalis love food, and any celebration of theirs is incomplete without a plateful of desserts.
But what if every quintessential Bengali mishti had its own personality and vibe? Could you match a zodiac sign to each of them? Let’s explore!
Bengali Sweets as Zodiac Signs
Sweet, soulful, and deeply tied to tradition, every Bengali dessert reflects a unique personality just as vividly as each Zodiac Sign. Here’s a playful take on Bengali desserts as Zodiac signs - which one are you?
Aries – Rosogolla
Rosogolla is the epitome of Bengal and its culinary diversity. It’s bold, classic, and attention-seeking aura totally embodies an Aries. Its sweetness leaves an aftereffect in your mouth for a very long time.
Taurus – Mihidana
Mihidana is delicate and as comforting as Taureans. They are patiently made, and they love indulgence like a Taurus. It’s earthy and full of tradition and a rich History.
Gemini – Lengcha
Lengcha’s fried and syrupy delight reflects Gemini’s duality — crispy outside, soft inside. Playful and versatile, this Bengali mishti is every Bong’s fav.
Cancer – Kheer Kodom
Kheer kodom is a perfect Cancerian, soft outside and a delightful surprise inside. It’s emotional, nurturing, and all about hidden layers.
Leo – Mishti Do
Mishti doi’s regal vibe and irresistible texture are always the showstopper on the table. Mishti doi, like Leos, shine with sweetness and richness.
Virgo – Chhanar Jilip
Virgos love flexing their perfection, intricateness, and neat artistry just like chhanar jilipi. Precise yet indulgent, these sweet delights are soft (natured) like Virgos.
Libra – Sondesh
Sondesh has many forms, yet its balanced, elegant, and endlessly charming and captures Libra’s grace.
Scorpio – Payesh
Payesh is deeply traditional and satiates every soul. It holds Scorpio’s intensity, simmering with emotion and depth with every spoon.
