Brown Butter Bakery — Restaurant in Oakland

I absolutely HAD TO come on here and write this review praising Chef Nani's stellar work baking the cake for our daughter's first birthday party. It was her golden birthday, and I worked with Chef Nani to go from concept to a stunning creation that was a very tasty summer solstice lemon cheesecake. The process was swift, painless, professional, and was pleasant because of her cool and bubbly personality. She also delivered the cake personally, which was a huge bonus!

I think we are going to recruit her skills for the birthday cake every year from now on. I already can't wait for next years cake!!

If you’re looking for delicious and beautiful desserts, I highly recommend Brown Butter Bakery. I’ve been a loyal customer of Chef Nani for years.

Hands down one of the best specialty bakeries. I have been to several events where the desert was the highlight of the party because of the amazing goodies from Brown Butter Bakery. Not only do her cakes look beautiful, but they taste incredible!! My favorites include the pistachio cupcakes, lilikoi bars, haupia pie and anything she does with strawberries. I ordered from her earlier this year for a baby shower I hosted. It was the easiest most wonderful experience ever. She was on time with my order and her packaging was perfect for transporting with out damaging. Will be ordering from Brown Butter Bakery for all events...
