The 102 years old Bombay Bakery in Hyderabad, Sindh is quite an institution in Sindh I believe. Its coffee cake in particular is legendary and while it may not be 'native' to the land per se, the cake and the bakery itself fully deserve to be recognized and celebrated as part of modern day Sindhi food culture!

Here is a pic of the Bombay Bakery:

I think I should mention here two traditional sweets that my grandmother used to make. One was "Kulcha." Kulcha is better known as a fluffy savory bread but the one I'm referring to here is a baked cookie with sesame seeds and saffron infused syrup that'd give the cookies their distinctive orange hue.





There was also "Shakkarparay." It's a doughnuty kind of fried dough, albeit with a crunch, that would be immersed in a sugar syrup and then cooled. It was quite a treat too.

yes. then dipped in sugar syrup which is allowed to crystallize on it's surface. it's like dried icing on thick namakpaara.

Interesting. There is South African dessert that is almost exactly like this. They're called koeksisters. The only difference is that koeksisters are braided into plaits.
