This shop was started by ram Avtar Pandey about 60 years ago. He had created a tagline for his shop.

The third generation of ram Avtar Pandey i.e. adarsh Pandey is currently running his shop.
 
During an interview, he told that the story behind the name of this sweet shop of his grandfather is related to mahatma Gandhi. He told, 'My grandfather once went to delhi to listen to mahatma Gandhi's speech. At that time gandhiji had called sugar 'white poison' and also told its disadvantages.
 Due to being cheap and easily available, Grandfather also used to make laddus of sugar. After listening to Gandhiji's speech, he was worried that how would he sell laddus made of sugar? He then renamed his shop 'Thaggu Ke Laddu' to warn customers about the ill effects of sugar. So that people come to know that they are being harmed by eating sugar laddoos.

According to adarsh Pandey, these laddus are quite different from the common laddoos. They have a method by which they prepare laddus.
In these laddus, semolina, khoya, gum, sugar, cashew, cardamom, almond, pistachio, etc. are mixed.

Due to the mixing of many indigenous items in laddus, they can benefit the body in various ways. Desi ghee is used in these and these laddus are made daily basis only.
