The dynamic husband wife duo of Geet and Vir are now a name to reckon with in the cake industry in Chandigarh and surrounding regions. Quitting their well paying jobs, the couple unleashed their artistic side, creating magic using fondant icing, being one of the first few bakers in the city to use the product, with detailing and finesse that was unmatched in its outcome. Crafting delicious cakes, the duo are a busy lot creating memories for kid’s birthday parties, wedding receptions, engagement ceremonies, customizing each piece to suit the clients need and demand.
The beauty in their creations is obvious, with the team being swamped with orders, not just because of their imaginative pieces, but also the delicious flavors that are created from scratch in their kitchen. Working with a team of 7, they are constantly evolving and of recent have even created a ‘Dream Catcher’ cake which was one of its kinds. “ I work with flowers, focusing on roses, while Vir creates the ‘boys’ pieces, be it a Harley Davidson, a Rolex watch, a sports car and even a hunting rifle atop the cake.
We take a lot of pride in our work, often the fondant roses have been mistaken for real ones, which speaks of the detailing, that goes into each piece,” shares Geet. Another bestseller is the collection of chocolates ‘Rocky Roads’ which are often a part of the wedding invite, baby announcement, party favors and of course Diwali gifts, setting a record of sorts, Geet has wrapped 8000 pieces for an order once. Isn’t that Wow!!!
