Our Story
Today, my yellowed and tattered recipe book has travelled to many places with me. It has been a loyal companion through the mad charm of Delhi University life, the abiding clockwork of Mumbai, the beauty of motherhood in New York, the passion and precision of Paris and the impeccable efficiency of Hong Kong. Along the way I have learnt, borrowed, scribbled and dreamt up batter secrets that have transformed into delicious, joyous cakes. I am essentially a self-taught baker, who believes in the power of passion as a driving force. Aided with baking workshops at Le Cordon Bleu in Paris, my journey of discovery continues when I travel to different places and seek out local bakeries and products. I also constantly experiment with new baking techniques and bring them back to you. I now live in Hong Kong with my husband and teenage daughters, who are always ready to sample and critique my new baking experiments. With a brand that now runs in India and in Hong Kong, I look forward to every trip to Mumbai, where I come down every 2-3 months to spend time at a place closest to my heart - The first Babycakes Kitchen! - Pallavi Sheth
