24 Carats Mithai Magic

Our shop 24 Carats Mithai Magic sits right in Chhakkapir Gali. It is one of those narrow streets where everyone knows everyone else. We spend our mornings making sweets and getting the trays filled up. The smell of sugar and milk is always around us. Working in the Gali means we see the neighbors every day and they stop to chat for a bit. It is a small place but we have enough room for the containers and the counter. We don't use any big machines just our hands and some basic tools to get the mithai ready. Sometimes it gets crowded in the street outside especially during the festival times but we just keep working. We have been at this location for a while and the walls show the age of the building. We try to keep things tidy but it is a working kitchen so there is always a bit of a mess somewhere. We just focus on the next batch of sweets. It’s a simple life running a shop like this in such a busy part of town. People walk by and peek in to see what we made today. We don't do any big talking or anything like that. We just stay here in Chhakkapir Gali and do what we know how to do. It’s just us and the sweets. We open up early and close late when the trays are finally empty. That is our whole day.
