Theobroma : Crafting Indulgence, One Delight at a Time
Theobroma means 'Food of the Gods' in Greek, befitting our exclusive and indulgent range of offerings that include brownies, cakes, desserts, chocolates, breads, and savouries.
The remarkable tale of Theobroma’s journey, crafted by two visionary sisters
Kainaz Messman Harchandrai, co-founder of the renowned baked goods brand, Theobroma, encountered a life-altering event at the age of 24. A trained pastry chef with a passion for her craft, Kainaz faced a challenging period of bedrest following a freak accident.
Having completed her studies at The Institute of Hotel Management (IHM), Mumbai, and the Oberoi Centre of Learning and Development (OCLD), Delhi, she had previously worked at Oberoi Udaivilas in Udaipur.
Expressing her initial struggles, Kainaz shared, “I simply loved my job, and being unable to do what I wanted to wasn’t something I was prepared for. The doctor had said I couldn’t be a chef, as I had to be on my feet all day.” Undeterred by this setback, Kainaz, along with her sister Tina Messman Wykes, embarked on a remarkable journey that would lead to the creation of Theobroma in 2004.
The sisters borrowed Rs 1 crore from their father to kickstart Theobroma. Fast forward nearly two decades and Theobroma has become a culinary powerhouse with 78 outlets across various Indian cities, including multiple locations in Mumbai, Delhi, NCR, Pune, Hyderabad, and Bangalore.
