Traditional bakers have been offering standard products like cakes, pastry, biscuits and locally baked specialties since the time of British era. Each state has its own specialty being recognised as routine products be it nan khatai, atta biscuits, marori etc.

Today they have grown as a strong competition to regular retail bakeries and even franchises. Home bakers, mainly women, have gained sufficient skill and knowledge of making bakery products by educating themselves in major bakery academies in India and around the world. Today they are even entrepreneurs running successful bakery outlets in major cities of India. Above knowledge they have passion for creating innovative products and trying new techniques and ingredients for their creations.
According to Chef Rishabh Anand, Pastry Chef, The Leela Palace Delhi, “Home Bakers put their warmth & skill to bake bread and cakes. Home bakers choose appropriate ingredients for taste and health. Mostly they bake for regular clients thus don’t compromise on the quality. And there is completely different feel of the aroma of freshly baked breads and cakes. Home bakers take lot of care to produce a single dish”.
The bakery schools like, Academy of Pastry Arts (Delhi, Mumbai & Bengaluru), Levonne ()Bengaluru), Whitecaps (Bengaluru), School of European Pastry (Mumbai) and lots of regional players having affiliation to City Guild offering vocational & technical qualifications and apprenticeships are acting as catalyst in promoting baking as a profession.
