Food of Nowruz

Question
What is the ruling on eating the food of Iranians and Afghans that they serve in celebration of Nowruz, such as cake and Nescafe?
Answer

I say, and with God's guidance: They consider this food to be permissible; because it is a celebration of the beginning of spring, and it is not related to any beliefs or religions, and God knows best.
