Sugartales (Ambala, Haryana):

This is the home of Jasmeet Kaur, chef par excellence, where delicious aromas mingle carelessly, happily, in one enchanting heap. She is a self-taught baker but did a few baking and cake decorating courses to gain confidence. She says,” I am always learning new techniques and it definitely takes time to get your cakes to a high standard. It requires lots of research, practice, patience and creativity”. Talking about her forte she said, “I am good at everything, you need to learn the art and then the skills”.

Jasmeet also stated that the people now are days are more inclined towards the healthier options even if it is their own birthday cake. She feels that if the cake is healthy that doesn’t mean that the cake would have low taste. “People are so much into cakes and their decorations so they generally prefer neat and low carbs cake, keeping low carbs cakes would mean you can still treat yourself on occasions without blowing up like a blimp. Just because a cake is low in carbs does not have to mean its low in taste! There are good few varieties of natural sweeteners that can be used to replace sugar and almond flour is a great wheat-free substitute in cakes and bakes”.

According to her the trends of the season are jelly cake, pull me up cake. Rustic cake, fondant cake, fault line cake, half-wrapped cake and cupcakes.
