9-year-old Vanshika always knew why her house had a sweetfragrance but what she did not know was that one day she herself will be thereason for the same.
While getting to interact with the young baker we got toknow that Vans Kitchen, which is her own small business, was never planned.Back in 2017, Vanshika returned to India after completing her studies in Canadaand had initially planned to stay in Jalandhar for a few months beforereturning.
The world sure works in twisted ways, this was the time when COVIDtook over the world and all plans had to be changed. Fortunately this workedwell for Vanshika as the 9-year-old who assisted her grandmother in the kitchenwhile she baked, was now in the kitchen herself making people happy with whatshe created.
In order to utilize the free time in a productive waystarted baking and Vans kitchen came into existence, which surprisingly got avery good response. Vanshika's future plans include opening up her own cutebakery which introduces the people of Jalandhar to French pastries anddesserts.
Her father was always an inspiration as she grew up in afamily of bakers, who had their own bakery. It had always been her father'sdream to open a bakery one day and deliver French desserts in Jalandhar.
As a young girl Vanshika was highly inspired by a pastrychief named Pooja Dhingra who had her own bakery in Colaba, Mumbai. She waspopular for the Macaroons that she baked and was referred to as 'The MacaroonQueen of India'.
"I always wanted to be like her and read a lot about herwhile growing up" Vanshika added. Besides this, the young pastry chefenjoyed watching MasterChef and Greatest Canada baking show a lot.
While discussing about the experience of how it had beenworking from home, Vanshika was quick to answer that it had been difficult asher mother would get disturbed while she would be cooking, because of which shewould plan to prepare her orders during the night.
She claimed that the mainreason she had been growing so well was because of the constant support thatshe received from her family. During the most challenging times in her life, Vanshikanever gave up, her original ideas and the willingness to achieve her father'sdream kept her going.
