Munna Yadav, the chief artisan of the shop, says that he has a milk business. Along with this, he also runs a Peda shop. He started the Peda shop in the year 2019. Milk and sugar are needed to make this. He told that since he is in the business of milk, he prepares peda from pure milk. He said that at nine in the morning, he starts cooking (boiling) the milk on a low flame of wood. Peda is ready at 11 o’clock. He told that once 30 liters of milk is offered in a pan on the stove. In this, 11 to 12 kg of khoya comes out. They prepare delicious Peda by mixing sugar in it.
There is a profit of 400 rupees on every pan
Munna told that his three other brothers also support him in this work. He sells two types of trees at his shop at two different rates. One peda is Rs 200 per kg. Whereas, the price of the other is Rs 300 per kg. The reason for this is that the amount of sugar will be more in the cheap rate Peda. Whereas, sugar will be very less in the expensive one. He told that by deducting the total expenditure, he saves Rs 400 on a pan.
