Ganesha Vilas Kadalai mittai, Madurai was started at 1953, catering traditional Indian sweets made from the finest ingredients using Jaggery , Groundnuts and fresh Coconut. The recipes were those handed down generation to generation and the staff personally trained in preparation of sweets and in personal hygeine. Being a religious and festive country in the world, traditions have been followed celebrating them with sweets and love. Kadala Mittai for Southies, Chikkies for Northies! The kadalai mittai which when translated means peanut candy is just that- a sweet with a nutty flavour. It is a staple snack found everywhere in Tamil Nadu, from tiny hole-in-the-wall shops in villages to swanky department stores in cities.
