Ramas Sweet Shop

Our little shop is on Gulmohar Road, right near the Reliance Web World Cross 11, which is a busy little patch of the neighborhood. Ramas Sweet Shop has been around for quite a while now. It's mostly just us in the back rooms making batches of sweets every single morning. The smell of sugar and milk boiling in the big vats is the first thing you notice when you walk in early. It gets very hot in that kitchen, especially during the summer months, but the work has to get done regardless. We don't have a marketing team or anyone telling us how we should look to the public, we just put the sweets in the glass cases and hope people want to buy them. Sometimes the boxes run out or the display looks a bit messy because we’ve been so busy serving, but that's just how life goes here. People come in for their festivals or just because they want something sweet after their dinner. I grew up around these smells and now I'm the one running the place. It's not always an easy job, dealing with all the different suppliers and making sure everything stays fresh, but we manage somehow. The floor is usually a bit sticky by the time we close, no matter how much we scrub it down. That’s just part of the job when you handle syrup and sugar all day long for the neighbors.
