New Karthik Sweets

You have to look a bit carefully to find us in Umar Khadi X Lane in HAL 3rd Stage. It’s a narrow lane and sometimes the delivery trucks get stuck, which causes a bit of a headache for everyone living nearby. New Karthik Sweets is a small shop. We don’t have a lot of space, so we have to be very organized with our trays and ingredients. We make a variety of things, mostly stuff that people like to snack on with their tea. The kitchen is right behind the counter, so you can usually see us working if you peek back there. It gets very hot near the stoves. We spend hours boiling down milk or frying things until they're crispy. The neighborhood has changed a lot since we first opened, but we’re still here in the same spot. We have a few regulars who come in every single day for the same thing. It’s nice to see familiar faces. We don't have a big fancy sign, just a simple one above the door. Most people find us by word of mouth. We don't use any of those delivery apps much because we prefer people coming in person. It’s just easier that way for us. Sometimes we have a little chat while we're weighing the sweets and packing them into boxes. It’s a quiet life in the lane, and we like it that way. We just keep our heads down and do our work.
