Chocolate drip cake, from above

Cakes, cookies & more — baked at home

Everything here came out of one small oven.

A photo journal of home baking — layer cakes, brioche, brownies, and the occasional beautiful mess.

About Lazy Baker

Lazy by name. Not by nature.

Lazy Baker started as a weekend habit and turned into a small archive of everything that has come out of our home oven — from wobbly first cupcakes to towering drip cakes. No commercial kitchen, no fancy tools: just butter, patience, and a lot of tasting.

The collections

Grouped by craving

Rather than one post per bake, the photos live together in collections — so you can wander through all the cakes, or all the breads, in one go.

The philosophy

Baked with wholewheat, jaggery and a little stubbornness.

Most of what you see here is made with wholewheat flour and jaggery where it can be — because a treat should still feel good the next morning.
