Gone are the days when those following a gluten-free and vegan diet for health reasons had to bid goodbye to desserts, as, there was virtually nothing on offer for them. Today, with a plethora of dessert options at several restaurants and cafes in Mumbai, they do not feel as if they are missing out on anything. From a Flourless Chocolate Cake to a Fluffy Red Velvet Cupcake and a Lemon Cornmeal Cake to a Strawberry Panna Cotta, a host of exciting desserts are being created by pastry chefs to wow the palate of those wanting to skip gluten and yet, relish a sweet treat.

All The Honey In The World At The Looney, The Lover & The Poet, Khar

Fret not if you must opt for a gluten-free dessert like this, for this is as sinful and decadent as any other. Honey in several forms is used in this cleverly crafted dessert. The Pistachio Flour Cake is light and delicious and the accompanying Honey Comb Ice Cream compliments it perfectly. Honey acts as a natural sweetener here and is luscious all the way.
