A dessert is typically the sweet course that concludes a meal in the culture
of many countries, particularly Western culture. The course usually consists of sweet
foods, but may include other items. The word "dessert" originated from
the French word desservir "to clear the table" and the negative of
the Latin word servire.

Importance of dessert in a meal

Why do we eat desserts and sweets?

➢ Dessert balances out a meal and gives “closure” to the meal.
➢ Eating dessert is an opportunity to experience different flavors and textures that
you cannot get in other foods like vegetables, meats, and fruits.
➢ Dessert can be an opportunity to be creative. You can make interesting mixtures
that you otherwise may not have thought of.
➢ Dessert isn’t “fattening”. Remember, there is no such thing as a fattening food
➢ It will make you feel like a kid again. Forget anti-aging creams or long and sweaty
workout sessions at the gym, the fastest way to recapture your youth, or embrace
a more youthful spirit is to eat like a kid
➢ It is romantic. Desserts are designed for romance. After all, you can’t really order
a salad with two forks. But, when it comes to cake, that is a different matter.
