Indian sweetmeats are really sweet, and these are, but they are delicious.

A simple syrup that makes a single thread when dropped from a spoon into cold water helps hold the coconut together. I'm not at all experienced with this kind of thing and found it a bit hard to see the "thread" when you drop clear syrup into clear water. After several tries I did think I saw the shadow of a single thread floating, so I called it done. But, my coconut paste didn't want to hold together all that well, making me wonder if I didn't get the syrup "hard" enough. This didn't stoop them from being yummy.
