The global cocoa shortage has become a significant concern in 2024, leading to soaring prices and major disruptions in the chocolate industry. Climate change, supply chain issues, and increasing demand have put immense pressure on cocoa production, and these challenges show no signs of easing. As a result, both consumers and businesses are feeling the impact, with the search for affordable, delicious alternatives becoming more crucial than ever. In this landscape, Indian sweets stand out as a compelling option. With their rich flavors, diverse varieties, and deep cultural roots, they offer an indulgence that doesn't depend on the increasingly scarce cocoa bean. Instead, Indian sweets are crafted from locally sourced, widely available ingredients such as milk, ghee, sugar, nuts, and spices. This not only makes them a cost-effective alternative but also a sustainable one, unaffected by global supply chain disruptions. So, the next time you're craving something sweet, consider reaching for mithais—a timeless treat that might just be the future of indulgence in a world facing a cocoa crisis. #scandalousfoods #production #manufacturing #indiansweets #desimithai

THANK YOU EvolveX Accelerator for this feature!! We appreciate it. 😍 😍
Have you ever enjoyed a gulab jamun with your quick service restaurant (QSR) meal and wondered how it stays so fresh? That might be thanks to SCANDALous Foods (ADITOF), a #Nashik-based company founded in 2022 by Sanket S and #PraveshAmin. Their vision? To revolutionize the frozen dessert market with single-serve, blast-frozen Indian sweets that cater to the growing demand in QSRs, hotels, and corporate catering channels. With Sanket S’s 14+ years of experience in the food industry, he recognized a major gap in post-meal desserts. Traditional Indian sweets were either unavailable or too difficult to store long-term. This is where SCANDALous Foods (ADITOF) steps in—offering products that are frozen to retain their taste and freshness, and can be stored for up to six months without compromising quality. From gulab jamun to rasmalai and jalebi, the company has created a menu that addresses both the consumer’s sugar cravings and the restaurants' need for convenience. With a production capacity of 750 kilos per day and partnerships with major names like Zepto and Swiggy, SCANDALous Foods (ADITOF) is rapidly scaling. Their goal? To continue innovating, expand into the GCC market, and eventually launch a direct-to-consumer (D2C) model with cloud kitchens and “Mithai Parlours” for Indian sweets. At EvolveX Accelerator, we’re proud to support startups like SCANDALous Foods (ADITOF) in realizing their vision and taking their businesses to new heights. The journey of transforming traditional markets with innovative solutions is exactly what drives us forward!

Mumbai’s SCANDALous Foods (ADITOF), a B2B sweets startup founded by Sanket S, has set its target to make most out of this festive season. Having closed a pre-seed funding round of INR 3 crore in February from the IAN Group (formerly Indian Angel Network), the company is poised to enter the HoReCa (Hotels, Restaurants, and Cafés) segment and aims for a 75X increase in Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR) by the end of the financial year. Founded in 2022, the company is working on to broaden its footprint across the food service industry and build a robust HoReCa base in key markets, including Mumbai and Nasik. Sanket S describes the brand's growth journey: "We started off with a 4,100 square feet production unit in January and were at about 9 lakh MRR back then. Today, we are at about 28 lakh MRR. We've added another 2,100 square feet of production capacity, which will be operational by mid-August, bringing us to 6,300 square feet." This expansion is a critical part of Scandalous Foods' strategy to boost production from 10 tons to an impressive 75 tons per month by the fiscal year-end. Sanket explains, "We've seen 13-15% month-on-month growth over the last six months, even in the pre-festive season. We plan to leverage this momentum as we enter the Horeca market."
