Sure, the city’s bakeries whip up famously delicious cake. But, there’s something unbeatably different about home-baked cake with all its freshness, fluffiness and aroma. The NCR’s home-made cake makers have that edge over the commercially turned out variety. And going by the number of orders they get, you can be sure that the capital truly digs them.
Taking that quintessential chocolate cake to its superlative best is Amrita Kataria in Lajpat Nagar. One of the pioneers in the business of homemade cake in Delhi, her chocolate truffle cake is quite popular among chocoholics. “This cake can’t get any chocolaty than this!’’, she says, and with good reason, as every bite has oodles of the real stuff. And if craving for cheese cake, fruit Gateaux or brownies, give her a 24 hour notice and she’ll toss up a perfectly baked spongy delight just for you!
Want to sink your teeth into a refreshingly light cake? Try the lemon cake from Maya at Vasant Kunj. She uses freshly grated lemon rind and when baked, it’s fluffy and flavourful with just the right amount of tanginess. Topped with a dollop of cream or a scoop of ice cream, it makes for a heavenly dessert. Her gooey brownies are good too. The cakes are plumped up with such melt-in-the-mouth ingredients that before you know it, you get hooked. You can dial her at 26124191 / 9818250010, and place your order.
Most home bakers request a 24 hour notice to complete an order. And Mala Bindra’s (Vasant Vihar) delicious range of bakes from chocolate to orange and coffee to cheese are worth every minute spent waiting for them. In every bite, you can sense the loving care with which she bakes them - making them all the more droolworthy! Book your order at 9811039894.
If you are watching the scale and your calorie intake then Jyoti Aggarwal ’s cakes will spell hearty indulgence for you. High on the health quotient, her bakes are made with ingredients such as whole wheat and soya oil. An irresistible treat is the chocolate cake with only half the calories that you would find in a regular cake. Equally scrumptious are carrot and apple cakes, and the groovy array of eggless cakes. The icing on the cake, here of course, is that all her bakes turn out lip smacking good despite the absence of the dreaded calorie-rich ingredients. Jyoti is also favoured for her sugar craft range of bakes with themes ranging from naughty (for stag parties) to cartoons (for kiddy parties).
