Hyderabad’s Emerald Mithai goes to rust!

For years in Hyderabad, there have been a handful of legacy sweet shops that have a loyal fan following amongst people. Dadu’s, Pulla Reddy, Almond House and Emerald are usually the preferred option due to how long they have been around, their range of delicious-yet-reliable confections and their overall brand value.

But recently, Emerald Mithai Shop in the lower tank bund region fell in trouble with the food inspectors when the establishment failed to meet its required safety requirements.

GHMC food inspectors pulled a surprise raid on the sweet shop’s kitchen premises recently and were shocked to find a deeply unhygienic and stinky kitchen, with rats roaming around.

Apart from that, the inspectors also found expired milk, paneer and other dairy products in their fridge. The sweet shop was also found to be using way too many food colourings in their sweets. The inspectors have seized the expired products, and will be taking them to a lab to get them check.
