The Iyengar Bakery is an integral part of Bengaluru’s culinary landscape. Located in almost every neighbourhood of the city, these traditional bakeries date back to the turn of the last century when two Iyengar brothers from the Ashtagrama (a cluster of eight villages) area in Hassan made their way to Bengaluru in search of livelihoods, and built on the legacy of British bakeries with their own customs and flavours. Over the years, more from the community followed in their footsteps, a trend exacerbated by the famine of the 50s which rendered agriculture in the villages unviable, leading to the rapid growth of Iyengar bakeries in Bengaluru, Mysuru and elsewhere in the South. In this episode, I visit Sri Jayalakshmi Bakery, a 60-year old bakery that though rooted in its traditions has made space to evolve with the times. Needless to say, I also taste many of the calorie-laden but deliciously addictive goodies that have built for these time-honoured establishments a loyal fan following over the years. Hope you enjoy this one, stay safe and happy eating!
Benne (butter) Biscuit
The sort of cookie that’s crumbly, fragile and almost melts in the mouth.
Rs. 30 (usd 0.4) per 100 gm
8/10
Vegetable Puff
Bite into the airy crunch of layers of pastry that traps within its folds a flavourful vegetable stuffing. A popular snack anytime of the day.
Rs. 25 (usd 0.3)
8/10
Egg Puff
One you get past the airy crunch of the pastry layers, you taste the creamy egg bhurji that's fortified with half a boiled egg. Reason why these outsell the vegetable puff in a traditionally vegetarian establishment.
Rs. 25 (usd 0.3)
9/10
Khara Bun
A generous hit of curry leaf and green chilli in a spice mix stains this popular bun a yellowish green and also gives it a spicy bite. The savoury notes of toasted onions and a smidgen of sugar rounds off the flavours on the palate.
Rs. 15 (usd 0.2)
9/10
Aloo Bun Congress
Picture a soft bun stuffed with a creamy, lightly tempered potato mash. Slice it open and slather on a generous helping of spiced peanuts. That’s the ABC for you. Soft and creamy with the toasty, spicy crunch of peanuts, delicious down to the last bite.
Rs. 30 (usd 0.4)
9/10
Bun Butter Jam
A sweet, raisin speckled bun sandwich slathered with salted butter and Sri Jayalakshmi’s homemade mixed fruit jam, on the palate it evokes memories of a comforting bread, butter jam sandwich packed in a school snack box.
Rs. 32 (usd 0.4)
8/10
Dilpasand
Sri Jayalakshmi Bakery’s most popular sweet offering is the sort of calorie-laden indulgence that helps you get past a bad day, if you are having one.Puff pastry stuffed with freshly grated coconut, raisins, glazed cherries, tutti frutti, cashew nuts and scented with cardamom! Sweet Bliss!
Rs. 25 (usd 0.3)
10/10
Honey Cake
Another one for the sweet tooth, a butter sponge cake dipped in a sugary syrup and rolled over in desiccated coconut. The sweetness, though is cut, thankfully, by the acidity of the jam that’s smeared on top.
Rs. 25 (usd 0.3)
7/10
Almond Biscuit
The sort that breaks off in a crisp, soft, crunch.
Rs. 30 (usd 0.4) per 100 gm
8/10
Salt Biscuit
Initially, you taste almost nothing, but then you are surprised by its salty spike that makes a late appearance on the palate.
Rs. 30 (usd 0.4) per 100 gm
8/10
Khara Biscuit
Flavours of the khara bun - curry leaf, chillies, onions and jeera - but in a biscuit form.
Rs. 30 (usd 0.4) per 100 gm
8/10

You seem knowing things....! But these bakery’s. Or food products from bakery’s are so unhealthy.....! And they themselves ....! Told it’s from English nan they ....! Leant !!!!! But how can you promote unhealthy things ....! I still don’t know ....may be you speak good English....! But try to promote healthy food rather than harming food 🥘!!!!
I can see you trying to controll your mouth watering seeing the so many delicacies.....I can just imagine your joy relishing them, while we are watching them drooling......😋😋😋
Also the ending statements about indulgence in this stressed out times is a wholesome complete to this episode. Have a great day.
I am very happy to watch this video. I belong to the family of B B Bakery, as it was my grandfather who started it and it is not Bangalore Brother's Bakery but Bangalore Brahmin's Bakery. I have grown up in this family watching my late father and my elder brother taking care of the Bakery and managing it for years.
Agustin Ritz let individuals decide what they want.
Sir.🙏.,,U knw more history than owner about his shops.
I don't know about the food but this video has definitely improved my vocabulary.
"Dont Know About Food" 🤣🤣😂😂😂🤦♂️
It is delicious
🤣🤣
U dont know about food madgud
Same here😂
Camera man is really a hidden gem of this channel, please bring him/her along in front of camera in one of your Q&A's or videos. This new content brought me a joy to watch. This made me recall our childhood memories where we use to call it as a pups for a puff and none of us knew till we grew up and dil pasand was our all time favorite. As always very good one Sir.
भभर छछज
True ..pups 🥳
I have Visited There, When I was Writing CET Exam In 2015 at Jain College, Never Thought such A Famous Bakery with History. I assumed A Random Bakery With Good Infrastructure 😂.. but my Friend Keeps on Telling "Macha, Adu Famous Bakery Macha"
Memories 😍🙏
This man is amazing
From 7 star hotels to ordinary bakeries to street food
This person rocks !
Keep going Mr Kripal 😁🤘
When you bite into a food your smile reveals all the respect,love and taste of that food...
Proud to be an Iyengar.
Iyengar bakeries definitely have some unique dishes.
I've been a customer of Sri Jayalakshmi Bakery for the past for the past 30 years from the Lalbagh road corner to the bigger and spacious Bake Square...fresh and wholesome goodies is their trademark ... they make the best bread ....as well as Dilpasand ...and Special raisin buns..and their masala Toast ...very happy to see them featured on food lovers... sending best wishes to the Jayalakshmi team
happy you enjoyed this episode, Kavitha. we loved the dil pasand, raisin buns too, among others. 😋
Once I took this dil pasand to Rotterdam Netherlands... To treat my friends... They enjoyed it.... Never knew in the back end.. Such an hygiene is maintained...
One of the best bakeries in South Bangalore.Proud to have known them.
One of the cleanest bakery and the best quality food... Kudos ... So happy to see my Sister's husband, the owner of this Bakery Mr. Srinivas... he is just an amazing baker
Great to know your sister husband
Please tell him to open a branch in Delhi.
Definitely admire the bakery and its history.
But please please ask him to cover his nose if he wearing mask, otherwise no use of that mask😕
Iyengar's bakeryalli egg puff madtaare anta gottirlilla
I request you to suggest him to open a franchise here at Chandigarh. It will be a big hit here.
This video is nostalgic. I grew up in Tamilnadu where there was abundant Iyengar bakery. Never bothered on why they have ' Bangalore' or 'Iyengar ' in their name but always enjoyed their Veg and Egg puff, Dil pasanth, Honey cake and Cream bun. You did full justice to the bakery culture of Bangalore.
But none of them are genuine.
@JarJarBinks ..Very true.
All those items uh mentioned are my favs, butter biscuits and salt biscuits as well
you grew up in nilgiris??? because there are a lot of bangalore iyengar bakeries, and they are really good.
Kripal, you are just fabulous.. Been your follower last 2 years.. you have an impeccable timing and control of the language. Definitely holding on to your audience! Wishing you many more laurels..
It's certainly true that an "Englishman" might not recognise the British influence on some of these tasty treats but others are definitely recognisable! For example, this Scotsman notes that the butter biscuits are akin to Scottish shortbread. Plus for any of us of a certain age the honey cake will bring back nostalgic memories of having jam and coconut sponge as part of our school meals (that said, instead of dipping in sugar syrup we tend to serve with custard which, depending on the school, may or may not have been warm!).
Ah, the famous Walkers shortbread cookies, Scotland's greatest export alongside Sean Connery and scotch. I got hooked on them for a whole year (the cookies that is) until I needed intervention. The Indian butter cookies are flakier, and tend to melt away in one's mouth. But its hard to pick a favorite between the two. Never knew the beloved honey cake also might have Scottish origins.
Scots and English got together one reason was the East India Co High paying jobs and other opportunities opened up for Scot youth in English controlled India ( Not enough English youth to fill the massive growth in colonial economy of course exploitative from Indian angle)
India united English and Scots and Welsh and Irish too
I just worked out for 1 hour, looking at what all you ate. Thanks for taking one for the team 😁
Any time, Arvind! 😀
Iam customer here since 1991 ,when i used to watch movie in uravarshi theatre, we used to parcel, nice bakery
The Honey Cake reminds me of cakes that I used to have as a child in Scotland. Sponge squares, coated in jam with Coconut on the outside.
I wonder if the Scottish Regiments originally took it to India, or brought it back to Scotland? Is there any history of jam making in India?
It's the same with the Butter Biscuit, it's effectively Scottish Shortbread.
It's always good food that brings people together.
Bakery products are some how new to India. Most of the Bakery techniques have been acquired by Indians from English and Portuguese. May be honey cake and butter cookies recepies had travelled all the way from Scotland. Isnt it a small world ?
I commented saying the same thing (hadn't spotted your post!). Jam and coconut sponge is classic school dinner fare! Couldn't agree more that tasty food brings us all together.
They used be one in every area while growing up in Bangalore ages ago . Most were of course namesake and nothing could come close to the real ones or the legendary VB bakery . Thanks so much for covering this !
I have never seen you this excited in any another videos of yours. You have a different glisten in your eyes and excitement in your voice. All of us who lived in Karnataka can relate to this, all our childhood we relished Iyengar bakery foods. This I mark as one of my favourite videos from your channel. Thanks a lot for making these videos. 🙏
Wow.. Really miss the good old days of Bangalore.. Aloo Bun, Toast, Khara Bun, Dil Pasand and the Puffs, though simple, are a hallowed culinary tradition by themselves, and the Iyengar Bakery is a pilgrimage towards the epicurean moments of Old Bangalore.. And Food Lovers TV has captured all this beautifully - YUM
Kripalu has the skills that makes even a regular snack taste heavenly ... His description of the taste and his expression as he savors the food is his hallmark 👍
The Kannada you speak in bw is wat makes your video special...👍
One of the Best Bakery In bangalore, giving quality and very taste stuff, Especially Dilpasand superb BCz of Dry fruits.
Owsome bakery with Hygienic.
Are the products expensive??
Reminiscing childhood memories of eating at the Iyengar Bakeries!!
One of the best episode ever from your channel. I liked your presentation. The happiness on your face while eating those dishes was like a small child. Nice enthusiasm!
I am missing Bangalore a lot 😭😭😭.....

I am missing Food too ...
I love what you and your team do. Thank you for being committed in making delicious, healthy food. I think at the end of the day, you just want people to be happy and healthy.
Well Kripal...I have been following your channel for more than 2 years now and trust me this is one of finest video in the recent times and more importantly during Covid times...and not to forget your camera man is doing a wonderful job behind the scenes...Kudoos and keep up good work & move around safely !!

I pause your videos halfway.I just can't control my mouth-watering 😂

Love from Namma Bengaluru ❤️
This is one episode that I have been longing for. Iyengar's Bakery - The very name makes me nostalgic. There are scores of Iyengar Bakeries in every locality of Bengaluru. I too grew up enjoying the delicacies at one such bakery. I can sniff a bakery anywhere in Bengaluru. The aroma of an Iyengar Bakery is something different. I have been eating Egg and Veg Puffs, the Bread Toast, the ubiquitous 'Dil Pasand' and the Honey Cakes right from my childhood. The ones baked and sold at any Iyengar Bakery is definitely something different. This video made be so nostalgic and happy. Thanks for this awesome video.
Hi this is one of my childhood memories when me and my sister while going to school we had to pass in front of this bakery, here we used buy bombe biscuits and lot more varieties we would eat .We used to enjoy while eating my mom's place is close to this shop i always tell to my children about this shop how we used to enjoy while eating .After long time back to my childhood super thanks for sharing
The hold on language n vocabulary of u sir is amazing... the way u describe the dish makes any1 want to eat it at once.... n ur presentation.. so sophisticated.. huge fan sir
"Time to lower the mask" what a nice sentence to use in current times :D Thanks Kripal
🙏
@@FoodLoversTV can I know which brand and where you got those face mask you wear sir... They are pretty good... Like to get like them....🙂
@@FoodLoversTV u didnt sanitised aftr removing mask & u carelessly placed mask on the table.
It took back me to my childhood days (80s) in Basavanagudi and stopping over at Jaylakshmi's bakery on the way to movies on mg road. Amazing and delicious bakery items - dilpasand, khara bun, etc. And the donne biryani -mmm.
Sir, I like the way you speak, explaining in clear, detailed manner. You are really doing a very good job giving awareness on the popular eateries in Blore which certainly deserve visiting atleast once.
Mr Kripal you remind me of Surendra Pal (Prajapathi Daksh) and I absolutely love how well you can describe a food’s taste. Very enticing!! And lastly when you use Kannada words in every sentence of your description - makes me feel I am not too far from home😁
I am Watching Your Vlog Since 2 Years.The way of Presentation and the Style is Simply Superb .Will visit Iyengar Bakery in Bangalore.Thank You.
Me.Kripal is a highly distinct Vlogger.He is Very Passionate and Dedicated ,Sources the Best

What Mr.Kripal said about IYENGAR community and IYENGAR Bakery is very much true. The Bakery means it is Iyengar's Bakery.
Wonderful, your presentation and phrases like "comforting flavours" makes it too difficult to resist!

Awesome review you give always. Your English fluency is great👌
The way you explain each and every food review is splendid.
Over the past few weeks I have gained a few pounds just by watching your videos.😀
Amazing episode. Loved it. The tasting was brilliant and done with immaculate detail.
Iyengar bakery was and is every household relief, bakery favorite. Dil pasand, dil, khush, puff, butter biscuits, bread toast, alu bun, honey cake, plain tea cake, other cakes, wow. School times this was every child's snack time. Bread was always purchased from here.
Just miss the beautiful places of our lovely Bangalore ... Nice refreshment at the time of lockdown ... Thank you 🙏
I enjoyed your Q & A never know you had magazine and there comes the quality .. Your channel is like travel XP Indian version ;)
Watching this vidoe brings back so many many childhood memory, every bite of the khara bun you took damn salivating ( the way you deciphered flavours were tones equating to memory)
Sir u r explanation of the flavours just brings water in mouth.........fantastic
I literally live for their cakes!
As far as I know this is most famous bakery in Pune along with kayani
This is a Bangalore bakery 😀
Kirpal really you are great. Water is flowing from my mouth by seeing you eating
I've been eating here for close to 30 years now, the dilpasand and egg puffs are yummy, the toast and aloo bun brings back so many memories. The flavours and freshness of the items are really good. Thanks for the episode!
Good things are coming to an end aroun the world. One example is the Udupi hotels. Will Iyengar bakeries meet the same fate?
After watching the Way this man enjoys his food makes me super hungry....😋
Lets a moment to appreciate the vocabulary and the adjectives used to describe every delicious goodie in a different way eaten by sir which makes my mouth watery.
Amazing I use to be regular visitor to bake square as its closest hangout from my college. Although I had no idea about about its heritage n tradition. We have loved each and every item here. Best part is it's so affordable.
I love this channel & watch the videos. Great job. & yes, the camera person does a great job. These restaurants are on my list of places to eat at when I visit India next.
Dude you are just amazing man! You know the intricacies of local food, at the same time maintain the elegance. By heart you are a pakka Kannadiga, by appearance and speech you look so classy. Deadly combination man. We love this combination. Just mind blowing.
Woahh.. going to bakery meeting them asking about the history showing all the process in this pandemic, so much efforts for us to watch this. Super video we really Appreciate you.
🤤 mouthwatering,,, just tugging my heart strings to relish on these childhood memories
Sir your explanation of the food in all your videos with such a minute details is rocking.
Dilpasand, Honey cake and egg puff 👍 🙏. Made me to go back to my school days - it's almost 30 years back.
You make everyone love towards food...you won 💐
A half-hour episode on just a bakery. And it's amazing, like a mini documentary. Wow.
This is baker's heaven ...Keep it up Jayalakshmi bakery !!!
I love how you use adjectives to explain taste of the food.
What a tempting video nd dishes.want to try all those dishes whole day
My friends and i from college (St. Joseph's) would walk from Langford road till this bakery near govt pharmacy college to eat cream bun. We were so addicted to the sugar rush it used to provide. This video brought back all those memories from the good old college days. Its also nice to see they are running the old bakery alongside the new one. Thank you Kripal!🙏
Thanks for sharing, PK, happy this bought back some great memories from your college days.
Your passion for food even during this hard time of corona is very well appreciated.
Wow never knew about this bakery till now. I will surely visit this outlet very soon ❤️
Amazing video . Very good eye for detail. I’m in the USA and miss the food Bangalore offers. Waiting for more videos (but do take care of ur self in the current times). Thank u 😊
Iyengar bakery is not only famous in Karnataka but also very famous in Maharashtra, they have many outlets in Maharashtra one of my favourite dish is Dilkhush😋😋
Genuine expressions and informative account by Mr. Kripal. Kudos to you.
So kind of Mr. Kripal Amanna & his team to still visit the eateries & support them.
Worth watching from 20:20 , Sir really ur a legendary man for describing the taste of a food.
Sir you just don't taste the food but also talk to the food in your own unique rythm. Superb 😄😄👌👌👍
Yyyy! My parents just don't let me go out 😭. Your videos are no more satisfying but they now just make me jealous!!
I could feel the Benne Biscuit when you ate it, thanks great stuff

Good morning ....kripal sir....Nice to see a flavourful n aromatic video on baked items 😋😋. .That dilpasad preparation became my dilpasad❤....It is very happy to listen their branch at Andhra (dharmavaram),looking forward to visit that...Any way ..stay safe n happy eating sir 👐👐
Such a nice video. I appreciate your efforts in showing different types of food operators. Iam a food quality manager. I always love to see the episodes which involves large scale preparations.9hrs fermentation ensures the bread spongy and pluffy. It is always ideal to buy from big Baker's as they always maintain hygiene as prerequisite. Please add some info about what kind of ingredients they select for their dishes henceforth.
@ Food Lovers TV.. Masha Allah looks very tasty and it reminds me of my college days. I really miss Curry puff samosas chai & osmania biscuits and loads fun with my friends by looking at this episode.. As usual your narration and superb way of expressing the savory makes it look more delicious and watchable :-) Thank you
Great work by Kripalamana and team!! I love that you visit such authentic places and describe the food so well! Thank you and Kudos. Plan to visit all these places!
Not having been to Bangalore for over 8 months now ,savouring the Iyengar bakery treats vicariously through your video.
❤ every videos has its own enthusiasm
Just love the way u explore things sir❤🤗
Great work sir as always.! Thank you for the lovely insights about bakery food.
It's nice and will surely visit after covid situation...
