Starting a cake business? + New Recipe!
Hello Reader,
Another week of baking and business, I hope you find something that will resonate with you in today's newsletter.
Starting a Cake Business?
I shared a reel on Instagram this week about which flavours to include in your menu when you are just starting your cake business.
It is so important to focus on sanity when you are handling so many things like learning cake decorating skills, marketing and pricing of your baked goodies, etc.
All you need are 5 basic flavours to get started and they are:
> Red Velvet
> Pineapple
> Vanilla
> Chocolate
> Black Forest
These are the most-sold flavours everywhere. Just focus on these for few months until you are comfortable and stable in your cake business.
Exotic flavours can wait. Your sanity is more important.
Productivity
Do you love to read "productivity tips"? I love to read them and I am currently reading the book "Joyful Productivity" by George Kao which is a wonderful book if you want to improve yourself in that aspect. I would suggest you to read that if you are into reading.
After all, baking and running a cake business is all about planning and prepping in advance and being more productive.
Chocolate Buttermilk Cake
This week on the blog is a very easy and doable Chocolate Buttermilk Cake which I want you to try as it is so simple and made with very easily available ingredients.
I baked some bread!
This week I baked some bread and was quite satisfied with the results. So expect a nice bread recipe on the blog soon. I will not reveal anything else about it and keep it like a nice surprise :)
That is all for this week.
Bye!

After months of yes and no about it, thinking of whether I would be able to justify and be consistent with it, I have finally taken the plunge! I would be so glad if you could check it out here and show some love: YouTube After this, I can say you may expect a new video every 7-10 days. I will try to increase the frequency and make more videos but given my bandwidth right now this is the best I can promise...
Hello Reader, We are halfway through the year! Can time fly quicker? This year is almost a replica of the last year(at least in India!) thanks to the second wave of you know what. Who knows when this will end. Hopefully, getting vaccinated will improve the situation. Please do complete vaccinations as soon as you can. Staying safe at home is just getting unbearable day by day with the same daily routine. Are you feeling the same? What do you do to spruce up your routine? Turning a year older...
Hello This week just came and flew by, Reader! I baked a lot and have many things to share with you as well. As things are getting better here in India with respect to Covid, I have started working on my cake business again slowly and steadily with all the precautions in place. After a long time I baked for business and made these number 6 Pullout Cupcakes. I also managed to record how I made those. You can watch that short video here. If you want to learn new skills for your cake business,...
