1. Mango Sticky Rice 🍚

Let’s start with one of my personal favorites - Mango Sticky Rice, a Thai dessert. This dessert consists of perfectly cooked sticky rice that is then mixed with a sweet, creamy coconut milk mixture. The dish is then topped with perfectly ripe, juicy mango slices. The combination of the slightly sweet and coconutty flavor of the rice and the fresh and fruity mango is simply divine!

2. Brigadeiro 🍫

Next up, we have Brigadeiro - a Brazilian dessert that takes the cake in the chocolate department. This dessert is made up of condensed milk, cocoa powder, and butter, which are then combined and rolled into small, bite-sized balls. The balls are then sprinkled with chocolate sprinkles or coconut flakes. Brigadeiro is most commonly served as dessert at birthday parties and other special occasions in Brazil. If you’re looking for a sweet and chocolatey treat, this is certainly the dessert for you!

3. Tiramisu 🍰

Moving onto something slightly more familiar, we have Tiramisu - an Italian dessert that is often a staple on restaurant dessert menus. This classic Italian dessert is made up of layers of sponge cake soaked in coffee, mascarpone cheese, and cocoa. These ingredients are then topped with whipped cream and chocolate shavings. The result is a dessert that is light, creamy, and utterly delicious! As far as exotic desserts go, this one is a must-try!

4. Halo-Halo 🍧

One of the most iconic desserts from the Philippines is Halo-Halo, which means “mix-mix” in Tagalog. It is a mix of shaved ice and evaporated milk that is topped with various sweet treats such as fruit, beans, coconut, and ice cream. The dessert is mixed together until it forms a creamy and colorful bowl of heaven that is perfect for a hot summer day. If you’re looking for a refreshing and unique dessert, look no further than Halo-Halo!

5. Baklava 🇹🇷

Ending our dessert journey in Turkey, we have Baklava - a sweet pastry that consists of layers of phyllo dough, butter, chopped nuts, and honey syrup. This dessert is popular in many Middle Eastern countries and is commonly served on special occasions such as Ramadan. The balance of sweetness from the syrup and the crunchiness of the phyllo pastry will leave you wanting more!
