India is the land of sweet things, everybody has a sweet tooth. Oh my god their desserts are ridiculously sweet, the only way they're not sickly is because of the use of spices. apparently India also has quite a high rate of diabetes... so that's not good but it does show how much sweets and desserts are enjoyed in Desi culture.
I think actually... it might be that because of how sweet their desserts are, that's why they didn't take off. They tend to be little bits and bobs rather than a large what we would consider a dessert (like a cake or whatever).
