Modern Confectionery Works

Modern Confectionery Works has been on Sarba Khan Road for quite some time. We’re near the Tala Park area, specifically close to Ashu Babu Bazar. You can usually tell you’re close by the smell of sugar and baking. Our building at 13/B is old, and it has that specific feel of a place where things have been made for a long time. It’s not a shiny factory. It’s a workshop with flour on the floors and the hum of old ovens going all day. We make all sorts of sweets and snacks. It’s noisy and hot, especially in the afternoons. We have workers who have been with us for decades. They know the recipes by heart. We don’t really use fancy machines for everything; a lot of it is still done by hand because that’s how we learned. The market nearby is always busy, so there’s a constant stream of people and carts passing by. Sometimes we have a bit of a laugh when a batch doesn't turn out quite right, but we mostly just keep our heads down and work. It’s a messy business, but it’s honest. We don’t have a website or anything like that. We just focus on getting the orders out to the local shops. It’s a bit cramped inside with all the crates and bags of ingredients, but we manage. It’s just a neighborhood confectionery doing its thing every single day.
