Bandra’s Premier Eggless Patisserie Pushes Boundaries with Texture-Driven Innovation, From Inclusive Dietary Options to Global Flavour Inspirations
Mumbai, India – January 2026 – Vanilla Beans, Mumbai’s premier 100% eggless gourmet patisserie, launches 11 new creations for 2026 that demonstrate unwavering commitment to sensory exploration. Founded by mother-son duo Deepa Desai and Rohit Desai, the Bandra West-based brand has spent over a decade perfecting the art of flavour and texture combinations – the driving force behind every handcrafted creation.
Leading the portfolio is a Gluten-Free Sugar-Free Vegan Chocolate Cranberry Roasted Almonds Cake that proves dietary restrictions need not compromise indulgence: vegan cranberry-infused chocolate sponge made with oats flour delivers tart cranberry brightness against rich chocolate depth, while roasted almonds provide constant satisfying crunch throughout.
The collection showcases texture-driven masterpieces: a Rocher Cake captures Ferrero Rocher’s iconic crunch through signature crunchy bits infused directly into milk chocolate ganache; a Kunafa Pistachio Chocolate Cake features crispy imported kataifi – delicate, thread-like phyllo that shatters beautifully – paired with homemade pistachio paste and milk chocolate ganache for crispy-smooth-nutty harmony; and a Fleur de Vanille showcasing Madagascar bourbon vanilla in three textural forms – crunchy crumble, velvety cream, and runny custard.
“We’re constantly engaged in sensory exploration – flavour and texture combinations are what we strive for and work towards,” says Deepa Desai, Co-Founder and Master Baker. “The Rocher Cake captures that satisfying crunch giving way to creamy chocolate in every bite. The Kunafa brings together crispy kataifi, smooth pistachio paste, and silky ganache – three distinct textures in harmony.”
New cheesecakes include Black Forest Cheesecake with Belgian dark chocolate, cherry compote, and mascarpone clouds; Coffee Crunch Cheesecake layering coffee-infused cheesecake with homemade crumble; and Caramel Sesame Cheesecake introducing sweet-salty-nutty complexity. The Luxurious Coconut Cake – inspired by Tom Cruise’s famous gifting tradition – features white chocolate-infused coconut cream with regal presentation, while Fresh Berries Tres Leches delivers Latin American milk-soaked indulgence brightened by tangy berry compote.
Beloved stalwarts continue: Nutella Strawberry remains the bestseller customers “wait all year for,” where tangy-sweet strawberry compote cuts through rich Nutella with intoxicating balance. Belgian Dark Chocolate Nutella Hazelnut delivers constant hazelnut crunch throughout, while Red Berry 50% Belgian Dark Chocolate showcases fresh imported raspberries and Belgian Dark Chocolate Sea Salt demonstrates how fleur de sel elevates chocolate’s complexity.
Every creation is baked fresh to order with sponges made the same day, using Callebaut Belgian dark chocolate, Madagascar bourbon vanilla beans, and imported kataifi. Most creations are now available in 100g cake tubs for single-serving indulgence, allowing customers to explore multiple flavour and texture combinations. Operating from a cloud kitchen in Bandra West, Vanilla Beans delivers pan-Mumbai within hours.
