Baking might be regarded as art, but it’s the chemistry between the ingredients and the cook that gives these desserts life and remember, the secret ingredient is always love. Don’t we love that sugar rush in our bodies every once in a while? Or maybe, more than once in a while in most of the cases. It’s almost as if that Blueberry Cheesecake invites you to eat it or that rich Chocolate fudge pastry keeps staring till the time you don’t gobble it up. Whether you agree or not; desserts are too hard to resist.
“Bake the world a better place.”

Let’s talk about a person who does not only enjoy eating desserts but also loves baking/making them: Shivesh Bhatia. Shivesh is 23 years old self-taught baker from Delhi. He’s always loved everything sweet since he was a kid which is what made him start baking when he was just in class 11th. The entire process and then waiting patiently for the final outcome was extremely fresh and fun for Shivesh. After baking a couple of different desserts and posting them on Instagram he finally decided to start his own blog Bake With Shivesh in December 2014, which is now his own website.
Shivesh never in his dreams thought what he started could turn out into something so big. He, at a very early stage started receiving bundles of love from his community on Instagram which actually encouraged him to experiment more and work on his food styling and photography-which he absolutely loves doing and he is stunning at! It was only during his post graduation when he finally decided to quit his studies and take up blogging as a full time career. Soon, he started Youtubing and now shares some amazing, mouth-watering and drool worthy dessert recipe videos with his audience. While alot has happened in these 5 years, the idea of creating simple yet beautiful recipes is still at the core of “Bake With Shivesh.”
This young, talented chef has been awarded with various awards for his work, has organised several food styling and recipe workshops and also released his first bookĀ Bake With ShiveshĀ in November 2018 which became an Amazon Bestseller. Hold your breath budding bakers, he is currently working on his second book which will come up in February 2020.
It’s not a cake walk to come up with innovative recipes, write a blog, make videos for Youtube, click amazing pictures for Instagram and also be an author. There goes a plenty of commitment, consistency and hard-work behind everything. If you have a sweet-tooth and enjoy baking, you’ll fall in love with his blog and Youtube. There is something for everyone. Are you ready to get all your sugar cravings satisfied?
