Baking has recently gained popularity in India. With Home bakers trying to experiment with their art, there is certainly a long way to proceed.

The next episode of the show will see two expert pastry chefs – Chef Kunal Satish Arolkar, the head pastry chef of FoodyBreaks Academy & Bakery, Goa and Shailesh Kumar Vitthaldas Bhutada of Academy of Pastry and Culinary Arts, India.

About his interest in baking, Chef Shailesh shared, “I like to play with flavours and keep on doing a lot of research on eggless food. I have a good experience in every aspect of bakery and pastry culinary.” About his experience on Chef Vs Fridge, he shared, “It was quite different from what we do every day and a good exposure.” Chef Kunal said, “It was a very good experience as this was my first reality show. So, it was altogether a different feel from what we generally do. It was a humbling experience to meet Chef Shipra and Chef Ajay whose inputs also helped me a lot in my challenge.” The two chefs get the challenge of preparing their dessert using any 3 sugars and 3 sugar techniques. Giving their best, what they bring on the plate is not just mouthwatering but also eye pleasing.
