Local Recommendations Tolichowki, Hyderabad

Where do people around Tolichowki buy baking tins and decent cocoa without going to a mall?

My daughter and I have started baking on weekends. It's the one thing she'll do for two hours without asking for a screen. We've worn out what I had: one loaf tin, a cake tin with a dent in it, and supermarket cocoa that tastes of very little. I'd like a muffin tray, a couple of small tins she can handle herself, and better cocoa. I'm told there's a wholesale lane somewhere in the old city for all of this. Anyone know it, or somewhere closer to Tolichowki?

Sorry to be late on this, but one thing before you buy a lot. We bought a whole set last year, sure we'd bake every weekend, and have used two pieces. Start with the muffin tray, it does most of the work for kids ❤️ For the shop, I've heard Begum Bazaar mentioned for baking supplies, but I haven't been myself.

  Begum Bazaar does have shops that sell baking things in bulk; I've bought kitchen supplies there for years. Parking is the problem, not the shops. Go early on a weekday and take a list, because most things come in larger quantities than a home baker needs.

  Agree on starting small. In the cooking sessions I run at work, the children manage silicone muffin cups far more easily than a metal tray. They can pop the muffins out themselves without anyone getting burnt.

  Silicone cups are what our older girl started with too, and at ten she still prefers them. And for cocoa, a small packet from the old city shops was miles better than anything at our supermarket ❤️
