Sihi Studio

Homemade in Bengaluru · 90 cakes a month

The cake someone makes when they really mean it.

We bake two cakes in a small Bengaluru kitchen: a fruit cake and a plum cake, soaked and matured for weeks. 90 cakes a month, because that is how many can be made this way. You order them here on the site, and we deliver every one by hand across Bengaluru.

Matured for weeks · No preservatives · We deliver every cake ourselves

A fruit cake just out of the oven, still steaming.

Two cakes, and a few things to go with them.

From a 500g loaf to a 1.5kg festive tin, every price sits between ₹750 and ₹2,700. The same fair price for everyone, on purpose. Cookies, murukku and nippattu can come along in the same box.

The Fruit Cake

Dried fruit and nuts soaked for weeks, warm spice, a soft honest crumb. People tell us it tastes like their grandmother’s. We take that as the highest compliment there is.

Why it tastes the way it does

There’s no secret. Good fruit, proper butter, and more time than anyone gives a cake anymore.

How they are made, and what that costs

  • The fruit soaks for weeks before it ever meets the batter.
  • Every batch is 90 cakes, baked by one pair of hands in one home kitchen.
  • No preservatives. The weeks of maturing are what keep it, the way it used to be.
  • We deliver every cake ourselves, at a delivery time you pick.

How a cake gets made

Six weeks from the first jar to your door. Most of it is waiting.

  1. 1

    The fruit goes in to soak

    Raisins, apricots, peel and cherries sit in juice or spirit for weeks. This is the part nobody can hurry, and it is most of what you taste later.

  2. 2

    Your order comes in

    We find out how many, which cakes, and the day each one is wanted. Nothing is baked before somebody has asked for it.

  3. 3

    Baking day

    Butter and sugar creamed by hand, the soaked fruit folded through, then a long slow bake. Each tin is lined and watched on its own.

  4. 4

    We bring it to your door

    Wrapped the morning it travels and handed over by one of us, in the window you picked. Never couriered, never left at a gate.

90 cakes a month is what one pair of hands can make this way. When they are gone, leave your details and we will tell you as soon as the next batch can be booked.

90 cakes a month, and why we stop there

Sihi Studio is small on purpose. 90 cakes a month is what one pair of hands can make while still watching every cake, and we would rather turn people away than make the 91st badly.

That number decides everything else. It means the fruit can soak for weeks instead of hours. It means the butter is real butter and the nuts are whole, because at this size the difference in cost is small and the difference in taste is not. It means nothing goes in to make a cake last longer on a shelf, since none of ours sits on one.

“Sihi” just means sweet. We thought that was the whole point.

Every cake is weighed, folded, lined and watched by the same person, then handed over at your door by that same person. Nothing is outsourced, and nothing is baked before somebody has asked for it.

One cake lands at a 21st birthday full of noise and candles. Another sits at the centre of a quiet table where someone turns seventy. The cake is the same one. So is the care.

Things people ask us

The questions that come up most before a first cake.

Are the cakes really homemade?

Yes. Every cake is made by hand in one small Bengaluru kitchen, 90 cakes a month. Nothing is outsourced and nothing comes off a production line.

Why do they cost ₹750 to ₹2,700?

Good dried fruit, real nuts, proper butter, weeks of soaking, and we deliver every cake ourselves. Prices are fixed on purpose, so everyone pays the same.

Do the cakes contain alcohol?

Only if you choose the with-spirit Plum Cake, which is clearly labelled and meant for adults (18+). There's also a family-friendly Plum Cake with no alcohol at all.

Is there an eggless option?

Yes. Both cakes come with egg or without, at the same price, and the eggless one gets the same weeks of soaking. You choose when you order.

Can you tell me exactly what's in each cake?

Yes. The allergen list for both cakes is further down this page, and if you message us we will read you the full ingredient list for either one.

Where do you deliver, and what if I miss out?

We deliver across Bengaluru ourselves, on the day you pick and inside the delivery time you pick with it. If the month sells out before you order, leave your details and we will tell you as soon as the next one opens.

Allergens, before you order

The honest list, confirmed against our real recipes. If you live with an allergy, read this first and message us if anything is unclear.

The Fruit Cake

  • Gluten / wheat all-purpose flour
  • Dairy butter
  • Egg whole eggs in the with-egg version; the eggless version has none in the batter
  • Tree nuts pecans, macadamia nuts and almonds
  • Sulphites golden raisins, dried apricots and the fruit-juice soak
  • Corn baking powder and powdered sugar carry cornstarch
  • Citrus lemon and orange juice, fresh zest, candied peels
  • Stone fruit glacé cherries and dried apricots

The Plum Cake

  • Gluten / wheat all-purpose flour
  • Dairy butter
  • Egg whole eggs in the with-egg version; the eggless version has none in the batter
  • Tree nuts cashews
  • Sulphites golden raisins, dried apricots and the soak
  • Corn baking powder and powdered sugar carry cornstarch
  • Citrus lemon and orange juice, fresh zest, candied peels
  • Stone fruit glacé cherries and dried apricots

The with-spirit variants soak in dark rum, cognac and Grand Marnier. They contain alcohol and are intended for adults (18+). Family-friendly Plum Cakes soak in fresh fruit juice instead: apple, dark grape or orange, depending on what’s freshest that month.

Every cake is made in one home kitchen that handles nuts, wheat, egg, dairy and dried-fruit sulphites, so we can’t promise any cake is completely free from traces. If you have a serious allergy, please message us before ordering. You can also leave a note for the baker at checkout.

Made your way, if you need it

Every cake can be adjusted per order. Eggless costs nothing extra; the others add a little to the price, shown before you pay.
