Asia Sweets

Leading brand in Bogra's yoghurt market, an old sweet shop beside the Sathmatha roundabout that often sells out before noon.
Founded in 1985 by three brothers who started with a small tea stall, it is now the leading shop in Bogra's yoghurt (Bogurar Doi) market. Its daily output of about one tonne still cannot meet demand, and products usually sell out before noon, so go in the morning. The shop is a few steps from the Sathmatha roundabout on Kazi Nazrul Islam Road, facing Akboria Sweets across the street, so you can compare them. A small cup of yoghurt costs about 30–40 taka, and a 650–700 g tub about 180–280 taka. Also on sale are chamcham, kalojam, laddu, khir kodom and other Bengali sweets. Mostly takeaway, and a good souvenir to bring home.
Opening hours
Daily about 6:00am–8:00pm (yoghurt often sells out before noon)
