Christmas is the season of celebration, and what better way to mark the time than with homemade plum cake, rose cookies and gingerbread? Many Bangaloreans now choose home bakers instead of traditional bakeries to celebrate their celebrations.
“Food from home bakers is always clean and delicious, and the gingerbread cookies I’ve ordered from home bakers are the best I’ve ever had. They’re so soft and delicious, and the icing has just the right amount of sweetness,” said Rashmi, an employee at Namma Metro.
Some home bakers often cater to specific dietary needs with gluten-free, vegetarian, and sugar-free options. They also offer customized cakes and cookies with personalized decorations. “I’m very conscious of my sugar intake for health reasons, and it’s hard to find sugar-free baked goods at a reasonable price in commercial bakeries. But there are many home bakers online who sell sugar-free items at relatively affordable prices, and there is also the option of choosing different flavors and spices,” said Jennifer.

“Home bakers reported that the offers have been running for more than a month and called the Christmas season their best season. “Christmas is our profit season and orders are more than any other time. The key to attracting customers is to provide high-quality cakes at affordable prices,” said Ashwini YJ, a home baker in the city.
Home bakers use social media platforms like Instagram and Facebook to showcase their creations and connect with potential customers. They also mentioned an app specifically designed to connect home bakers with customers.
“Building a loyal customer base is the main way to grow our business and of course word of mouth referrals are more effective,” said Naga Guna, a home baker specializing in intricate Yule log cakes. “I enjoy incorporating my ideas into the design making each order truly special,” he added.
