Hew & Frost
Branding and Packaging
Mridula Ganesan is a passionate baker and the founder of Hew & frost - a Chennai based home studio for bespoke cakes and confectionary. This sprinkled- covered, sticky-fingered bake-oholic is also a designer, calligrapher and dancer. Her culinary creations are literally works of art - marbled popsicle, Impasto cakes, edible miniature tops on lip-smacking macaroons and cupcakes.
I imagine this 25 year old with a bright smile, plugs on her music and whips up mouth-watering treats everyday, plunging us into her tastefully curated dessert world.
