Scandalous Foods, a B2B Indian sweets brand, has raised Rs 2 crore in an ongoing seed funding round led by New Age India Fund.
It’s currently reviewing three more funding offers from other investors and a family office.
The fresh funds will help the company increase its production capacity and grow its distribution network for small and mid-sized hotels, restaurants, and catering businesses (SME HoReCa).
Earlier in February 2024, the startup raised Rs 3 crore in a pre-seed round from Indian Angel Network and others.

With bigger production, a stronger distribution network, and new products in the pipeline, we’re gearing up to bring our bold, delicious creations to even more people,” said Sanket S, co-founder of Scandalous Foods.
