About Manal Bashir

My Vision

Food has the power to create memories and experiences that last a lifetime. Dessert has been my medium to make and share these memories. Some of the most simple desserts and flavours are those that can evoke nostalgia which is why I believe in using a solid foundation of quality ingredients and flavours.

I believe in finding inspiration from everything around me. There are details in our daily lives that are easily overlooked because of the fast-paced world that we live in. The only effective way I have created anything over the years is by stopping and observing. I am always surprised at what my observations allow me to create.

Dessert is an art, and art is all I have known throughout my life. I’ve spent years of my life sketching, painting, singing, and cooking but now I’m focused on how to bring your dessert vision to fruition. No occasion is too small or big for me to create something truly memorable. There are hundreds of occasions to be celebrated with desserts and you decide how special you want them to be-leave the rest to me.

  • Manal’s Diwali Ras Mali cake was one of the best cakes I’ve ever tasted. I gifted it to my mom, but she saved me a slice as well! It was delivered on time. She was very surprised. Def the best pairing with a nice hot cup of chai!

  • What a beautifully designed and thought out cake! We ordered Manal’s Ras Malai cake for Diwali and it did not disappoint! Our family were blown away. The taste was superb...not overly sweet just the right amount of sweetness, pistachios and cake!! We will definitely be ordering again!! Thanks Manal for your awesome talent!!

  • Manal is an absolute dream to work with and her creations are incredible! She is professional, responsive, patient, and a real artist. We have ordered numerous cakes and pastries from Manal over the past few years- the wild berry pie in particular is one of our favorites!

    We knew we wanted Manal to create our wedding cake even before we got engaged! Manal and I had a brainstorming meeting for the wedding cake - I had so many ideas but was confused about what I really wanted. Manal went above and beyond to show me different options and narrow down our vision. Our wedding cake turned out perfectly and was really a highlight of the wedding - it looked beautiful, tasted amazing, and we are still getting complements over two months later. Thank you for everything Manal!

Gauri G.

  • I ordered a cake for a birthday event and it was amazing! Everyone really enjoyed it, which was a real win since I’ve had some fails with previous cake purchases from other places. I also would like to mention that I appreciate the precautions that were taken given the current situation. There was a contactless delivery option and the cake was perfectly sealed, which was reassuring. The process was so smooth, from sorting out the details to the delivery. Everything was done so easily and professionally. Highly recommend!

  • We recently had the pleasure of having two cakes from Manal. The first was a custom lemon chiffon for my son's second birthday. She was amazing to deal with. I gave her an idea, and she ran with it. When we saw the cake, it exceeds our expectations. The craftsmanship, the little details. We love the clean, simple design. The cake was very flavorful, and moist. The balance of flavour, the ratio of buttercream to cake. The lemon was pronounced but not overpowering. The second cake was chocolate hazelnut, with salted caramel tarts. Again, exceeds our expectations. Everything is just on point. Everything we had from Manal has been truly amazing. Very happy with both cakes and will be going back again and again.

Anthony L.

  • We loved our entire experience with Manal! From cake tasting to seeing the actual cake on our wedding day was amazing. Manal gave us a list of flavours that we could select from which, were all very unique and different than anything I’ve tried elsewhere. The salted caramel flavour was our favourite – divine tasting because it was an absolute perfect blend of saltiness and sweetness. At our wedding we had a large sweets table and at the very end all the guests could talk about was our wedding cake! It was moist, flavourful, and Manal executed our vision perfectly. The sugar flowers she hand crafted were absolutely gorgeous – I kept them and now it will forever remind me of our wedding day! We could not have been happier with Manal and very thankful we chose her to make our cake! Thank you!!

  • I am so glad to know Manal. She has been my go to girl for all my events for the past 10 years. She never fails to amaze me. Her consultations are so much fun! She really understands how to put your ideas onto paper and creates cake designs better than what you had originally thought out for yourself! I always recommend her to anyone I know with an event coming up. She is incredibly professional and has the most creative cakes! Thank you Manal for all the work you have done for us and hope to use your services for all our future events :)
