About me: I am a freelance food writer, recipe developer and photographer. Food is my passion - baking, cooking, developing recipes, making recipes healthier, using fresh seasonal produce and local products, keeping a check on my carbon footprint and being a responsible foodie! I enjoy food styling, food photography, recipe development and product reviews. I express this through my food photographs which I style and the recipes I blog. My strength lies in 'Doing Food From Scratch'; it must taste as good as it looks, and be healthy too. Baking in India, often my biggest challenge is the non-availability of baking ingredients, and this has now become a platform to get creative on. I enjoy cooking immensely as well.

There are cakes and there are cakes, then there are special cakes. This is one of the special ones. They might look like a ton of work, but hey, read on...

I always have frozen berries in my freezer but you could use fresh ones too. The recipe is a simple one bowl eggless sponge, and the way to make the cavity is as simple as it looks. Eggless Mango Shrikhand Cavity Cake WHAT IS A CAVITY CAKE?... you might ask! It's a cake with a cavity in the middle filled with all sorts of deliciousness. I've written a post about it last week, and it's quite favourite kind of cake at my place. It was also an original idea that came to me one day while playing with cakes and steel cake/cookie cutters! The lanes of Old Delhi Cake dessert tins from the lanes of Old Delhi The steel baking molds I use are from my first visit to Old Delhi, a little shop I found tucked away behind a banyan tree. I returned to that shop in Lal Kuan several times over the years picking up more bakeware, each time making better choices I think! Baking tins, dessert rings, bread knives, bread molds, muffin trays, icing sets, pastry bags … and lots more in a little shop in Old Delhi. Take the Metro to Chawri Bazaar, and a rickshaw from there. {They seem to have a website too now.} Matchless Machine Tools, 1730/B, Bazar Lal Kuan, Delhi 110006. Mohd Kashif, Ctc 011 4909 8499 | 093111 50022 | 098213 41808 {Deals in bakery ware, cake mould, bread mould, muffin tray, pizza tray, cake stand, halwai ware, kitchen ware} That was a time almost 20 years ago when cookie and cake cutters meant a trip into Old Delhi, but now good old Amazon brings everything home! Different variations of a cavity cake And so with my stash of cake and cookie cutters, one lazy summer afternoon, the cavity cake was born! Some things just work out well and keep getting reinvented in sooooo many different forms. This Chocolate Vanilla Strawberry Jelly Cavity Cake is just one of them. I've made many versions of the cavity cake, in different flavours and shapes as well! They're always a hit. With a little prior planning, you are going to love making these on a roll! Do tag me on Instagram at Passionate About Baking if you make this, or any other recipe from the blog. I'd love to see it!

    Oh, yes! A good book, a great dessert, and a cup of coffee (or, in my case, tea) is heaven.
