i love indian sweets! 74th Street in Jackson Heights any one remember the Patty Duke show "all the sites a girl could see from Jackson Heights? is now a little india market place, complete with a sweet shop...
The vegetable stores feature fruits & vegetable i don't recognize, as well as several varities of things i do recognize, but usually only see one variety of.. (i think of banana's -- most stores carry 2 kinds.. they carry 6 or more.. if you count the 2 or 3 kinds of plantains.)

Yes, they are very sweet, and often gooey, dripping with honey or a liquid glaze, but they are small.. and if you limit your self to one or two very small ones... they are sweet and creamy and cool the palate after all the heat of a dinner!
