Festive treats fly off shelves in India

During the festive season in India, people are buying a lot of special treats like cakes, puddings, and cookies.

Shops and home bakers are working hard to keep up with the demand.

Some popular items include chocolate streusel popsicles, rose cookies, and a special spice cake that mixes chillis with Chinese spices.

People are also buying mystery boxes filled with chocolates and cookies as gifts.

Even home bakers like Bemvinda Pereira are working late into the night to make cakes, which are being sent to different cities.

The sales are much better than last year, especially at places like Flurys Park Street, where they have seen a 25% increase in sales.
