"Do your duty, without expecting results."

Success is Sweet, but for Mohit & Shikha Jain, it is even sweeter. In December 2013, Mohit, an Electronics & Communication Engineer with 7 years of industrial experience at companies like TCS, IBM, and Fidelity, and his wife Shikha, a freelance graphic designer, launched MoShik’s, a personalized homemade chocolate business.

Using the power of the ecommerce, today their beautifully designed & deliciously prepared customized chocolates are being shipped across India. Moshik’s chocolates’ experience is one of its kind, which the husband-wife duo claims one cannot experience in the regular Indian market. Firm believers in hard work & commitment, Mohit & Shikha have huge future plan for their unique custom chocolate business after its initial success.
