The Journey Behind Moi Doughssier's Eggless Bakes
A look into the flour-dusted, heartfelt journey of building my bakery in Vashi, one eggless treat at a time.
A look back at the journey. From my early days baking at home to becoming a professionally trained pastry chef, it's been a delicious year of growth and gratitude.
A big order of our chocolate cupcakes, all packed up in their pretty pink boxes and ready to go. It's so rewarding to see my creations become a part of your special events.
I believe in lifelong learning. Here I am back at the School for European Pastry, honing my skills with Chef Manuel Bouillet to bring you even more innovative and delicious pastries.

About Our Story & Behind the Scenes
What you see on the counter today started in my home kitchen. I made it a mission to prove that eggless desserts could be as rich and complex as any classic French pastry. Whether it is the slow fermentation of our sourdough or the piping on our custom cupcakes, the process remains exactly the same as when I baked for my first pre-order, just with a lot more space to experiment now.
I believe that good food needs a soul. My journey began with a simple question: why should my family, who are strict vegetarians, settle for second-rate desserts? This pushed me to train at the School for European Pastry, learning techniques that I then translated into our current menu.
The kitchen in Vashi is where the magic happens, but it is still very much a home kitchen at heart. We do not rely on premixes or short-cuts. If you see a chocolate cupcake here, it started with high-quality cocoa and slow mixing. If you see a Basque cheesecake, it was burnt to perfection in our oven, not a factory machine.
We have been lucky to grow from a small pre-order setup to this café. It is not just about selling sweets, it is about being part of Navi Mumbai's local food scene. When you visit us, you are not just a customer, you are part of the story that started with just a few loaves of bread.
