Desert
Not Kosher for Passover
Not kosher.
Desert, typically referring to a sweet course or dish, is not inherently kosher for Passover. Many desserts contain chametz (leavened products) or kitniyot (legumes, which Ashkenazi Jews avoid), which are prohibited during Passover. To be kosher for Passover, a dessert would need to be specifically prepared according to Passover dietary laws, avoiding these prohibited ingredients.
