Show Notes
2 days to Christmas and our 2Gs, the Gourmands and the Geeks, Sadaf, and Archit are baking some cake and wishing you merry Christmas. In this episode they’ll discuss: why cake gained prominence in India despite a plethora of sweets that already existed in the country, what the legendary Julia Child said about baking, controversies around the cake in French, US, and Indian politics, why someone baked a 70 feet long cake in India, the connection between the Great Depression of 1929 and banana bread, and an Indian version of cheesecake!
So, sit back and relax, cut yourself a cake, eat it and bring in the holiday season with the 2Gs.
