'Ma Baker' – the jovial one… The song 'Ma Baker' immortalized by Boney M may have criminalist connotations in its lyrics…but the one I met recently is a sweet angel of a woman and an expert baker! Yes! Meet Mrs. Geetha Krishnan, a technical writer turned homemaker of Kalyan Nagar who has 'baked' thousands of cakes from the age of 18 and still has the same teenage spirit that keeps her going! 'The Fragrant Kitchen' being her entrepreneurial venture (started two years back) with a variety of cakes, cupcakes, muffins, cookies, sugar art has 'matured' into offering the best of Charlottes, Genoise-base desserts, Soufflés, Panna Cotta custards (for veggies and gelatin base for non-veg enthusiasts) Lasagnas, Alcohol-based cakes, Diabetic assortments, Theme cakes and finally…Naughty or Kinky cakes (will tell you at the end!) Says Geetha “In Tamil, they refer to someone who loves to eat, as a "Saappaattu Raman". I really don't know why - because there isn't any reference in the Ramayana of Rama being a lover of food. On the other hand, there are ample references to Krishna being an ardent lover of food - whether it is the stolen curds from Gopikas, or the pranks he involves himself in to get to the butter that his mom tries to keep away from him. In all fairness, I think "Saappaattu Krishnan" is a much better name for a food lover. Needless to say, I am a "Krishnan” Only an ardent foodie can satiate foodie lovers! With unstinted support from her hubby Mr. Prasad, an IT technocrat who runs Teligenz Ventures (Kalyan Nagar) this amiable woman is going (and growing commercially too) from strength to strength! With her mom and granny for inspiration…Geetha picks the finest and fresh quality

ingredients bakes it oven-fresh and ensures that all that she 'bakes' gives you the homemade feel. Keeping in view the health-conscious ones…she also has sugar-free, eggfree and fat-free options in all her bakes. Again, her husband chips in “She is an expert in theme cakes. Her 'Angry Bird' cakes are a rage in our neighborhood! Not to mention, the custom made ones she does…as 'exact' as customer's requirement. And, now she is being besieged for 'Naughty' cakes…which she does it with élan!” Sumps up, Geetha “My dream is to open a Café and to conduct classes for homemakers…which I hope would be realized soon”. Whilst wishing her 'all the best' for her new venture she sends you off with a yummy plum-cake as a Christmas gift! The 'fragrance' and 'aroma' still lingering….you begin to wonder! What a 'jovial' Ma Baker'…you have just met!
