Fresh Baked Goodness

What Fresh Baked Goodness does

Fresh Baked Goodness (FBG) is a Chennai-based specialty bakery founded in 2014 by Meghana ('M') that produces and sells egg-free, vegetarian, and vegan desserts. The core product is the signature Classic 6 Layer Brahma (Theobroma) chocolate mousse cake, complemented by celebration cakes, cheesecakes, cupcakes, cookies, brownies, puddings, tarts, pies, jar desserts, and event-specific food scapes. Operations are anchored in two takeaway-only outlets in Mylapore and Nungambakkam, a pan-Chennai delivery service using a dedicated air-conditioned vehicle, and supply partnerships with more than 10 restaurants across the city.

The technology layer is intentionally light: a LimeTray-powered website and an Android/iOS mobile app handle direct-to-consumer ordering, supported by a tiered FBG Loyalty program (Citrus 5%, Caramel 7%, Saffron 10% redemption) with 1 point per ₹1 spent. Product customization, including vegan, allergen-specific, and tailor-baked cakes, is executed manually in-house rather than through any automated production system.

FBG's go-to-market is direct-to-consumer first, with three revenue streams: online and phone retail orders from individuals celebrating personal occasions, corporate bulk orders (office cakes, conference food, high-tea food scapes, corporate gifting) at discounted rates, and restaurant supply partnerships where signature items such as the Theobroma are served under partner brands. The business is founder-owned, bootstrapped, and operates as a single legal entity with no disclosed external funding.
