Sharing the Joy of Baking with @shivesh17

For more photos of desserts made by Shivesh, follow @shivesh17 on Instagram.

Three years ago, Shivesh Bhatia (@shivesh17) encountered the works of Swedish photographer and baker Linda Lomelino (@linda_lomelino) and fell in love with the idea of baking. “For me, baking is like meditation,” says Shivesh, who is a political science major from New Delhi. “Creaming the sugar with butter, whisking the flour with baking powder, playing with chocolate and fruits, layering and frosting the cake, decorating it and finally digging into it — the entire process is so much fun.”

Shivesh spends hours looking through dessert recipes and then tries them out himself. Styling and photographing his creations have also become an important part of his baking, and sharing his work online has opened him up to a community full of people who appreciate his talent and inspire him in return. From cupcakes with meringue frostings to berry pies to apple galettes, Shivesh works his wonders in the kitchen, while always keeping the focus on having fun. “I believe in creating incredible desserts from simple techniques and basic ingredients,” says Shivesh. “If you invest your love in what you are baking, nothing can go wrong.”
