"People who know me well, know my love for food is undying and a good dessert only brings happiness to an otherwise mundane day. My current portfolio of investments include fitness, fashion, wellness, food – most things which complete me and spell passion for me. The one thing which I truly cherish and which is going to be joyous from hereon is the luxury to bake my own cake and have it too- that too healthy and guilt free! We have some very fluffy, sweet and ambitious plans lined up ahead which will enable dessert and fitness lovers to enjoy their desserts guilt free and I can’t wait for everyone to get their hands on my hand picked desserts and get away with enjoying them," said Arora.
According to the founders, this relationship will help the company grow both its offline and online footprint across the nation.
