India is a land of diverse cultures, traditions, and languages, ever-changing every 50–100 kilometers, yet united by one deep connection, our love for food. Recognizing this, The Baker’s Dozen (TBD), India’s leading artisanal bakery brand, has launched its touching ‘Different Tongues, One Taste’ campaign this 79th Independence Day.
Known for its authentic, high-quality baked goods, TBD’s campaign film captures everyday moments from across India where food becomes an expression of love, care, and connection. From a wife surprising her husband with his favorite Banana Walnut Cake, to a father slipping a Donut Cake into his son’s school bag, to a working woman assuring her mother she’s eating healthy with sandwiches made from Fourgrain Sourdough Bread, the film highlights how TBD’s products become part of life’s most heartfelt gestures.
A young girl sending her mother a photo of Dark Chocolate Cookies, saying they taste just like home, reflects the central message, different cities, languages, and traditions may define us, but food connects us all.
The film can be viewed on You tube and Instagram
As part of the campaign, TBD is collaborating with food creators from Maharashtra, Kerala, Gujarat, and West Bengal. These creators are recreating traditional regional recipes using TBD’s products, blending heritage with artisanal innovation.
Speaking about the campaign, Aditi Handa, Co-founder & Head Chef at TBD, shared, “Cooking is a universal language to express love and care. In our factory, I work with people from diverse cultures who enrich the products we make. This campaign celebrates cultural multiplicity through food and the love it carries, especially in times when language differences are often highlighted.”
Sneh Jain, Co-founder of TBD, added, “We wanted to mark Independence Day in a way that resonates with people from all walks of life. Food is one language everyone understands, and our film shows how it can transcend boundaries to bring people together.”
Founded in 2013 in Mumbai by Sneh Jain and Aditi Handa, The Baker’s Dozen has grown from a local bakery to India’s largest artisanal bakery brand, with a presence in over 100 cities. With a state-of-the-art 30,000 sq. ft. facility near Ahmedabad and partnerships with leading quick-commerce and retail platforms like Blinkit, Instamart, Zepto, Big Basket, Nature’s Basket, and Namdhari, TBD continues to deliver high-quality baked goods across the country.
This Independence Day, TBD invites everyone to celebrate diversity, unity, and love through the shared language of food.

ButterBrews has opened its new outlet in Aundh, marking its largest format café so far. The new space has been designed as an everyday destination, bringing together a comfortable layout, a strong all-day menu, and a clear focus on coffee.
The café has been planned with multiple zones to suit different preferences. It includes an indoor seating area, a non-smoking outdoor section with an amphitheatre-style setup, and a separate smoking zone placed away from the main space to ensure a smooth and relaxed experience for all guests.
The menu offers a premium all-day selection built around fresh ingredients. Guests can choose from breakfast options, healthy bowls, wholesome meals, and vegan dishes, making it suitable for different tastes and dining needs throughout the day.
Coffee continues to be at the heart of the ButterBrews experience. The café uses 100 percent Arabica beans and serves both house blends and manually brewed coffees. It also features guest roasters like Tulum Coffee Roasters and Ground Zero Coffee Roasters, adding variety to its coffee offerings.
Desserts and baked items are prepared in-house at ButterBrews’ bakehouse. Popular choices include the Basque cheesecake and cinnamon rolls, which have already become favourites among guests.
Commenting on the opening, Harsh Agarwal, Co-founder, ButterBrews, said, “ButterBrews, Aundh is our largest format cafe yet. We have built a stronger indoor experience and created clear zones across the cafe so guests can settle in the way they like. We want this to be an address people can count on through the week.”
Umang Bhimrajka, Co-founder, ButterBrews, added, “For us, coffee has always been non-negotiable. With 100 percent Arabica beans, house espresso coffees and manual brews that rotate speciality roasters, we are bringing a program that balances familiarity with discovery. Alongside that, the all-day menu and our bakehouse desserts complete the experience we want to offer Aundh.”
