About Bespoke & Themed Cakes
We bake cakes that tell your story, not just fill your dessert table. From our Bandra home bakery, my mom and I put our hearts into every order - matlab, we want your cake to actually mean something to you.
What We Make
- Burnaway reveal cake: Our viral hit. The top layer burns away to show a hidden photo or message. Great for surprises, proposals, or just kuch alag (something different).
- Sculpted 3D cake art: Mom’s specialty. Pop culture figures, festive themes, even a Makhan Chor cake for Janmashtami with a matki (pot) and real peacock feather.
- Vintage heart cake design: Retro piping, bold colours, perfect for anniversaries or birthdays.
- Themed bento cakes: Personal-sized, 350g, with custom messages or floral designs. Sweet gift, small party, or just because.
- Custom cupcakes: Baby showers, birthdays, you name it. Each cupcake gets its own cute topper - booties, teddy bears, bottles, bas (that’s our style).
How We Work
- You bring the idea - photo, theme, or just a vibe. We’ll chat and sketch out your dream cake.
- Eggless custom cakes only. Vegetarian, always.
- Any size you need, from tiny bento to big party cakes.
We love a challenge, and we’re all about making cakes that get people talking.
