When asked what is her favorite item that people adore, she replied, “My best selling product is Brooklyn Burger. That’s an idea I came up with in the year 2020 during the lockdown.

2. TheCocoabeanCo
Nida Khan, a young girl from Hyderabad, began her business because she just simply loved desserts and was eager to share her skills with the world.

Speaking to Siasat.com, Nida said, “The main reason I started this business is I wanted to bring a change in the F&B industry in Hyderabad. There was a dearth of freshly baked goods in the city and I wanted to offer that. Moreover, ever since I shifted to Hyderabad, I always found myself craving Cinnabons’ cinnamon roll, and with this business, I wanted to fulfill mine and many others’ cravings by recreating it.”
