Mrs. Shital Prasad Matre, Founder of Century Delight, received the Excellence in Cake Artistry Award 2026 at the Maharashtra Excellence Awards and Conclave 2026. The event was held on August 22, 2026, at Sayaji Hotel, Wakad, Pune, and was organized by Insights Success and powered by Insights Excellence Awards. Marathi actress Nivedita Saraf attended as Chief Guest. The award recognizes Matre’s work in building Century Delight as a name in customized, designer cakes across Pune.
Century Delight specializes in theme-based, customized cakes, designing cakes around specific occasions and personal themes rather than offering standard, off-the-shelf options. Matre’s work involves close attention to detail, from flavor selection to intricate decoration, tailoring each cake to the celebration it is meant for. Chief Guest Nivedita Saraf, known for her long career in Marathi cinema and theater, was present at the event, and her attendance added a warm, festive note to a ceremony centered on creative and entrepreneurial achievement.
Running a customized cake business means balancing creativity with consistency, since each order is different but still needs to meet the same standard of taste and finish. Matre’s continued, hands-on involvement in designing and preparing each cake reflects a business built around personal craftsmanship rather than mass production.
As Founder, Matre has built Century Delight’s reputation through word of mouth and repeat orders, particularly for birthdays and other personal celebrations where customers look for a cake that feels made specifically for the occasion. This focus on personalization has helped the brand carve out a steady presence in Pune’s customized cake market.
The Excellence in Cake Artistry Award adds to the recognition Matre has built through her work at Century Delight. It reflects the trust customers have placed in her approach to designing cakes for their most personal celebrations.
