On a busy lane and under the shadow of Dindigul’s Malai Kottai, resides J. Bhuvanaa Sundhari, 33, a self-taught chocolatier, who for the past three and a half years has been enticing the young and the old by churning out chocolates in the shapes of crackers.
It was while working in Bangalore that her love affair with making home-made chocolates began. By attending various workshops, Ms. Sundhari, an MCA graduate, honed her skills. What started as a way to satiate her sweet tooth became an enterprising business, when after marriage she left her job and settled as a home-maker in Dindigul.
With her son inheriting her love for chocolates, she started making small batches for him and for her relatives living around.
