The Baker’s Dozen, India’s leading artisanal bakery brand, launched a Zero Maida Donut Cake that blends the texture of donuts and cake and shares delicious bites crafted without palm oil, refined sugar and artificial flavors or colors.
The choco-filled Zero Maida Donut Cakes come in single-serve packaging, making them ideal for mindful, portion-controlled grab-and-go snacking and tucking into school lunchboxes. While all ages will enjoy digging into the sweet treat, kids will especially enjoy the free sticker included in each pack. "Consumer preferences are [...] evolving," said Sneh Jain, co-founder and Managing Director of The Baker’s Dozen, "Mothers are actively seeking healthier snacks for their kids, while adults are gravitating towards on-the-go options that are tasty as well as healthy."
With this launch, The Baker's Dozen is tapping into a broader audience and has its sights set on disrupting the cake market.
