A miniature food expert has amassed millions of views on social media by creating impressive meals using tiny cookware and cutlery.
Ranjitji Thakor, a 28-year-old YouTuber and Influencer from Gujarat, India, is behind the Mini Kitchen India accounts.
Ranjitji was inspired to create miniature foods by his brother, 26-year-old Sanjay Thakor, also from Gujarat, India.
In 2017, Sanjay came across a YouTube video of a miniature food cooking channel and asked his brother if he’d be interested in creating something similar.
Ranjitji uses miniature equipment and utensils he finds from various online retailers and second-hand selling sites on a 1:12 scale.
The mini versions of foods are handmade by Ranjitji and Sanjay from food given to them by their father who is a farmer.
All of the Mini Kitchen India videos are filmed at his at-home studio in Gujarat and earn him over $2,000 a month.
He said: “It was not an easy road.
“I could not afford to buy miniature cookware or a miniature stove when Sanjay suggested it to me.
“But it did not discourage me – I worked hard and saved money to collect all the miniature kitchen parts I needed”.
Ranjitji is thrilled with the positive reaction he received from his millions of worldwide viewers.
He said: “It’s simply been amazing.
“I have been able to have incredible sponsorships from some great brands.
“Now, I make a living doing what I love and sharing it on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and Youtube.”
