Baked With Love

The guilty pleasure is short-lived the flavors continue to linger and bring a warm smile on its patrons. However, the lockdown has separated the gateau from its patrons for too long. Not anymore, says Shilpa Reddy, a baker from Manikonda. Staying true to her Hyderabad roots of turning crisis into a sweet and surprising opportunity, she along with her two patissier friends has started a cozy patisserie.

At the gates of the Urban Eatery outlet, a steady line delivery vehicles take off loaded with customized cakes, buns, bread, muffins, fruit cakes, ice cream cakes, customized desserts, etc. The outlet delivers across the city and is looking forward to collaborating with food delivery applications like Zomato and Swiggy.

The outlet has a strict rule of sanitizing before entering the premises the rule was established way before the Corona scare. Baking is not merely a stress buster but is a way to connect with the people for the tiny crew at Urban Eatery.
