Hi, I’m Ruchi - a baker, a designer, a storyteller at heart, and a bit of a romantic.

Casa Zaara came from my love for beautiful food, thoughtful details, and hosting gatherings that feel special. I’ve always been drawn to the kind of moments where people slow down, sit around a table, and enjoy something lovely together. And what could be more perfect than afternoon tea for that? To me, it’s more than just food - it’s a way to bring people together and make even the simplest gathering feel a little more special.

What I love most about Casa Zaara is that I get to bring together my love for baking and hosting, and do what I love every day - create afternoon tea experiences that feel personal, welcoming, and a little bit magical. We create afternoon tea experiences for birthdays, bridal showers, baby showers, and all kinds of intimate celebrations.

Whether you’re planning something simple or more styled, I’d love for Casa Zaara to be part of it.
