LA CIRCLE BY NAYAJA MUCHHALA : OUR STORY

CREATION OF THE BRAND

La Circle is a modern cloud kitchen that blends the warmth of Australian café culture with the refined elegance of European patisserie created to deliver premium products on affordable prices.

We believe indulgence should feel comforting, personal, and accessible. From selecting ingredients and developing flavours to baking and packaging every order, we approach each step with dedication and love. For us, luxury is not defined only by price. It is defined by the experience—the richness of flavour, the freshness of the product, the beauty of its presentation, and the joy it brings with every bite.

The name “La Circle” represents togetherness, connection, and the joy of sharing sweet moments. Whether enjoyed personally, gifted to someone special, or shared during a celebration, every bite feels meaningful.

Nayaja Muchhala - Founder and Pastry Chef

NAYAJA MUCHHALA

FOUNDER & PASTRY CHEF

Nayaja Muchhala discovered her love for desserts at the age of 14, spending every summer vacation beside her mother, making homemade desserts and ice creams. Those moments in the kitchen became the foundation of a lifelong passion and the place where she always felt most at home.

Determined to turn that passion into a profession, she completed her Diploma and Graduation in European Pastry, from SCHOOL FOR EUROPEAN PASTRY followed by City & Guilds Level 3 and specialized Egg-Free Patisserie training under the guidance of Chef Vikas Bagul and Chef Anil Rohira.

After graduation, her vision was clear—to build a brand of her own that reflected quality, craftsmanship, and creativity.

To further refine her skills, Nayaja trained in Melbourne, Australia, completing Level 1 in Chocolate & Patisserie at Savour School under the mentorship of Kirsten Tibbals. Today, she brings together European pastry techniques, Australian influences, and a deep love for handcrafted desserts through every creation at La Circle by Nayaja Muchhala.
