A chef and 100-year-old family sweet shop owner, Soma Rkhit, gives finishing touches to scale models made of sweet meat in the attire of a traditional Indian bride and bridegroom at a sweet shop in Kolkata, India, on July 18, 2025. (Photo by Debajyoti Chakraborty) The Indian sweets and confectionery market is a large and growing sector, with a strong presence of both traditional and modern sweet options. The market is driven by factors like cultural significance, increasing urbanization, and changing consumer preferences. Packaged sweets, in particular, experience significant growth due to convenience and longer shelf life. The Indian sweet industry is projected to reach INR84,300 crore (approximately $10.1 billion USD) by 2025. This growth is driven by a combination of traditional favorites and modern innovations, with a significant surge in sales during festival seasons. (Photo by Debajyoti Chakraborty/NurPhoto)
