'Lotte's Home Bakes' started with my passion for pastry, baking and chocolates. At first it was just a hobby my friends and relatives really enjoyed. Now that both our daughters have started school I've decided to develop this hobby and passion into a small hillside business.
Baking from home, in this beautiful Mussoorie setting, providing delicious treats to all you hillside residents is definitely what I see myself doing.
I am a self taught baker who has twelve years experience working for central London four star hotels specialising in events management. I discovered my passion while working along side some talented patisserie chefs. Inspired by what I saw I completed a few courses in cake/cupcake decorating myself.
Being Dutch having also worked in a bakery for a year, I know how happy a good loaf of bread or a well made cake can make a person.
Good ingredients, consistency a little love and passion is what I intend to put into my products.
This business is not only supporting my family and I financially but it is also helping us provide employment to Mussoorie locals.
Your support, feedback and help is all very much appreciated.
Looking forward to lots and lots of orders and I hope you enjoy them all.
