"The trick lies in 45 minutes of continuous hand-tossing of pure ghee, kesar, besan, and sugar... Our sweets speak the world language." — N. Raghu, Owner

Two time-tested delicacies that sweet lovers travel across Karnataka to taste.
"Melt-in-the-mouth perfection with a rich golden honeycomb crumb."
Crafted with finest besan flour, sugar syrup, and poured with generous streams of steaming aromatic desi cow ghee. Porous yet soft, our Mysore Pak is cut fresh right before your eyes in our Balepet stall, retaining its warm melt-in-mouth texture and irresistible royal aroma.
"A 24-hour slow caramelized ash gourd halwa with a legendary golden crust."
Our Dumroot (Dumrote) is widely celebrated as Bangalore's finest. Grated fresh ash gourd (winter melon) is slow-simmered with khoya, sugar, saffron, and copious amounts of desi ghee, then baked under hot embers to form that distinctive caramelized top crust, generously studded with golden fried cashews.
Here is what sweet lovers and heritage food connoisseurs say about our authentic taste.
"The Ghee Mysore Pak and Dumroot Halwa here are unmatched in the entire city. My grandfather used to take me to the Balepet shop in the 1970s, and today I bring my children. The taste has remained exactly as rich and heavenly as it was decades ago!"
"Their Dumroot (Ash Gourd Halwa) is the best you can find in South India. The caramelized crispy top and the warm ghee-laden interior with whole cashews is just mind blowing. A true culinary jewel of Chickpet."
"For every Diwali and family wedding, our only stop is Sri Venkateshwara Sweetmeat Stall Balepet. The Benne Murukku is delightfully crunchy and the Badam Halwa is pure royalty. Amazing quality!"
Step into our heritage store in the bustling lanes of Old Bangalore. Watch master craftsmen prepare Mysore Pak fresh and experience sweet-making traditions preserved since 1954.
