Meet Deepa Gheewala

Today we’d like to introduce you to Deepa Gheewala.

Hi Deepa, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
I worked as an IT professional for around 12+ years. After being blessed with twins, I chose to stay at home. I started baking for their monthiversary celebrations and trying out my hands at decorating as well.

My friends liked and encouraged what I baked, hence started creating cakes for them too. I guess that was the turning point that inspired me to start my journey as a Baker – Cake Artist.

Being the eager beaver that I am, I started picking trending techniques, kept expanding my skill set by working and sharing knowledge with other bakers by doing Collabs.

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
It was a bit bumpy start as most of my initial learning was from online videos and practice. Achievements came with even higher expectations. I have had my struggles while managing my twin toddlers and constantly learning how to run a successful business. Pandemic brought in new challenges as the demand shifted from catering a party to small family celebrations.

The constant motivation and encouragement from my family-friends and support & trust from all my amazing Clients kept me going.

Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
I am mainly into customized cakes. I also do decorative cupcakes, fancy cookies, cheesecakes, cake jars, and a variety of dessert spreads.

My specialty is to “Make the cake of your dreams”. I love to bring life to the cakes by adding moving parts, lights and sound effects, 3d structures-figurines, fondant decor, painting on cakes, tall cakes, giving an art & engineering touch to them. and not to forget, we also make custom toppers.

I do not hesitate to take risks, which also brings the best out of me every time. Pushing my limits with each cake has led me to make a 3ft long dinosaurs cake (my best cake so far). My husband and kids have been my best critiques and never stop pushing me further every time.

I have developed a wide range of Indian flavors along with the regular ones and have made many unique combinations of flavors to serve client’s taste preferences, which makes my clients come back every time and try new ones.

Is there anything else you’d like to share with our readers?
One thing that I have learned in life is that there is nothing that one cannot achieve or succeed with if they really put their 100% into it.

To win is my success, to lose is my experience – Deepa Gheewala.
