About Chocolate Obsession
Most people do not realize that standard chocolate cakes often rely on sugary, mass-produced compounds. When we make our Belgian dark chocolate range, we use 54.5% Callebaut cocoa by default, but we can switch to 70% if you crave that deeper, intense bitterness. It is a different experience entirely—one that is rich, dark, and genuinely chocolate-forward rather than just sweet.
We started Vanilla Beans in our Bandra kitchen because we were tired of cakes that tasted more like sugar than cocoa. In this cluster, you will see our deep dive into the world of Belgian chocolate. We work with Callebaut chocolate because it delivers a texture and complexity that standard cocoa powder just cannot match.
Whether you are a fan of the Dutch Truffle cake—which is all about that moist sponge and decadent ganache—or you are looking for a twist like our Coffee Infused Belgian Dark Chocolate, we keep the ingredients simple. We slow-roast South Indian coffee beans for our coffee infusion and make our orange marmalade from scratch for the citrus pairing. If you want something truly decadent, our Nutella Hazelnut variant adds that extra layer of crunch and hazelnut praline.
We believe a great chocolate cake should leave you feeling satisfied, not heavy. That is why we focus on the ratio of ganache to sponge, ensuring every bite has that velvety, smooth finish. If you have a specific dietary requirement, just let us know—we do eggless, vegan, and gluten-free versions of these chocolate recipes as well. Whether it is a bento box for a quiet evening or a celebration cake, we bake it fresh right here in Mumbai.
Vanilla Beans
Mom and I run Vanilla Beans right out of our home in Bandra. We don't believe in fillers or heavy frosting; we just want to make the kind of chocolate cake that makes you stop and savor the bite. If you're looking for real Belgian chocolate that actually tastes like the bean, you are in the right place.
