Meet The Team

Bilal
Owner
Bilal is the heart and soul behind Cake Away. An engineer by profession, he decided to trade in his hard hat for a chef's hat in 2017, and he's never looked back. Friendly, dependable, and always ready to support his team like family, Bilal is the kind of boss who has your back no matter what. When he's not running the show, you’ll find him working out, traveling, or hunting down the best food spots in town. Fun fact: Bilal spent six years working at a Japanese firm before diving headfirst into the cake world!
Kumara ​
Manager
Kumara is the guy who keeps everything running smoothly at Cake Away. As the manager, he’s the go-to person for anything and everything, whether it's a work-related issue or just someone needing a listening ear. He treats Cake Away like his own business and is well-versed in digital marketing, having started as our marketing manager. With a knack for making jokes that leave everyone wondering if he’s serious, Kumara adds a special touch to our friendly and warm environment. In his spare time, he’s an avid photographer.
Richie
Bespoke Care Designer
Richie is our resident cake artist, and let’s just say, she’s a Picasso with frosting. With over seven years of experience, Richie is the talent behind some of our most jaw-dropping cake designs. She's humble, hardworking, and a true team player. You can admire his incredible work at our Jaddaf branch, where she’s recreated the Mona Lisa and Girl with a Pearl Earring—this time, holding Cake Away products! Outside of work, Richie loves painting, but cake is definitely his favorite canvas.
Danushka
Cake Decorator​​
Danushka is our cake decorator extraordinaire, but honestly, he’s a jack of all trades in the kitchen. Always ready to lend a hand in any department, Danushka's infectious smile makes the workday a little brighter for everyone. With over five years of experience, he's one of our best assets and a true team player. And here’s a fun fact—no one has ever seen Danushka be anything but kind. Seriously, he’s just the nicest guy, ever.
Anurudha
Pastry Chef​
Meet Anurudha, our pastry wizard. He’s the hardest worker on the team, needs zero supervision, and always has a smile on his face—though he’s a bit on the shy side. With over five years of experience, his pastries speak louder than words. And while he might be quiet, his music choices are anything but. His tunes might drive the rest of the team a little crazy, but it’s all in good fun!
Festus
Head of Production​
Festus is the first one through the door every morning, ready to take on the day with a smile (even if he doesn’t show it often). With over eight years of experience, he’s a baking production powerhouse, handling everything with precision and skill. Don’t be fooled by his serious demeanor—Festus is a big softy who loves watching movies on YouTube while he works.
Thankfully, he uses headphones!
Ana
Customer Service Representative​
Ana might be short and petite, but she’s a powerhouse of energy! With over four years of experience in customer service, she’s the reason our customer satisfaction has skyrocketed. Ana is the voice of Cake Away, handling every customer interaction with patience and professionalism—even if she’s secretly losing her cool. Fun fact: Ana shops for clothes in the children’s section, and she totally rocks it!
Shakib ​
Customer Care Officer
Shakib is our go-to guy for so much more than just ringing up sales. He’s the behind-the-scenes wizard who handles accounts, manages customer relations, coordinates with drivers, and makes sure every cake is packed perfectly. When Kumara isn’t around, Shakib steps up to keep the day- to-day operations running smoothly. He’s often the last one at the shop, and when he thinks he’s alone, he cranks up 90s Bollywood tunes. Fun fact: His taste in music is...unique, but it keeps things lively!
Shehzad
Driver​
Shehzad is the man who ensures every cake reaches its destination safely. He’s a professional through and through, and he won’t rest until the job is done. A true foodie at heart, Shehzad handles every delivery with care, making sure our customers are always happy.
Siraj ​
Driver
Siraj is our other delivery dynamo. Soft-spoken and always smiling, he’s the kind of guy who leaves a lasting impression on every customer he meets. Some say he bears a striking resemblance to Mr. Bean, but with his charming demeanor, there's no mistaking his star quality.
