I was exposed to a whole world of sweets during the preparations for my "henna" ceremony. Henna is an engagement ceremony is held before the wedding. The ceremony symbolizes the transition from single life to life as a married couple. Ritual has a meaning of wealth, fertility, success, prosperity, love, relationships and maintaining good against the evil eye. There are different types of henna ceremonies according to the testimony, I had a very successful Iraqi ceremony it was graceful and enjoyable. All guests at the ceremony held in their hands trays containing sweets. Female relatives joined and began preparing a wide variety of colorful cookies, fresh tasting!
