1) Modakam or Modak is the favorite sweet item of Lord Ganesha. So, if you want to get the blessings of Ganpati Bappa then make sure to prepare this sweet item on the first day of Ganesh Chaturthi and offer as bhog and later give it to the neighbors and relatives nearby.
2) Bappa loves sheera, which is similar to sooji ka halwa. Sheera is a sweet dish made out of rava, ghee, dry fruits, little milk, and more. You can even add pineapple to sheera whereas, others make it with banana. The classic sheera can be prepared and offered as a bhog to Lord Ganesha. Make sure it has more sugar or gur to make it taste delicious for God as well as to you. It will help you lead a sweet life ahead.
3) Basundi is also known to be quite rich, aromatic and matches well with poori. So, why don’t you just watch a YouTube video and prepare this sweet item on any one day of the ten-day festival of Ganesh Chaturthi?
4) Puran Poli is a classic sweet item that is always found in Maharashtrian sweet foods. No wonder why Bappa loves it too as the sweetbread has loads of sweet dal filling with gur making it yummier to eat.
