Moddy’s Chocolates in Udhagamandalam turns 75
Moddy’s, a renowned confectionery in Udhagamandalam, is celebrating its 75th anniversary. The shop is famous for its European-style hot chocolate and extensive variety of chocolate products.
Why it matters
It highlights the cultural and historical significance of local businesses in Ooty and their role in the regional tourism economy.
Picture this: misty hills all around as a cup of hazelnut hot chocolate awaits. A perfect setting unfolds at Moddy’s confectionery and bakery in Udhagamandalam, The Nilgiris, as it completes 75 years of serving chocolates. As I enjoy the velvety chocolate drink, baked cheese cake served with a drizzle of milk chocolate and triple chocolate hazelnut gateaux beckon. While the baked cheese cake is dense, creamy, chocolatey and almost melt-in-the-mouth, the triple chocolate one comes with layers of luscious chocolate.
