Meet the Presenters

Pooja Bavishi, Founder & CEO of Brooklyn's Malai Ice Cream

Pooja's interest in flavor and food can be traced back to her childhood. On any given morning, you could spot Pooja taking long whiffs of her parents' chai often before they took their first sip, a practice that they patiently indulged. She found their seamlessly and artistically throwing in spices to make delicious dishes to be utterly magical, and wanted to be a part of that herself.

This began a lifelong passion for experimenting with aromatic spices, global cuisines and unconventional flavor pairings. Pooja became particularly inspired by the blank palate of an ice cream base, when she discovered that the same South Asian spices of her childhood - ginger, nutmeg, cardamom, and saffron - could be used to robustly flavor ice creams in a way that she never tasted before.

In 2015, Pooja launched Malai, with flavors not only highlighting the culture and traditions that she grew up with, but also the magic that she felt in the kitchen at that young age.

Pooja continues to craft all of Malai's recipes, and is continually energized by bringing joy and happiness into people’s lives daily.
