No one can deny the love of Peshawaris for food. Be it the charsi tikka, or the sizzling chapli kabab, Peshawar has been all about food. But Peshawari taste buds aren’t all about traditional food, and all kinds of food delicacies are loved.

Nida is a one-woman-show, running her business all alone, and she clearly knows what she is doing.

What makes Nida different from all bakers is the fact that she is adding a very emotional touch to her brownies. Her brownie boxes come with notes from loved ones, when sent as a gift to someone, or strong boosts of positive vibes from Nida herself. She loves experimenting and combining that with her perfectionist approach, Nida has brought all kinds of amazing dessert recipes to the people of Peshawar as well as around different cities of Pakistan.
