Birthday babe on some boats! Grateful to celebrate another year of life with my favorite person. We’re not on a boat today, but I love to see the smile he gets on one. Happy birthday my swaggy sailor!😎🛥️💙 by @hungrymadrid

Madrid and I had an amazing time celebrating @ghazi ‘s Birthday. What a fun and beautiful evening.

A true San Francisco legend! @empire by @hungrymadrid

3 years married and 15 years together. They say home is where the heart is and that’s never felt truer. No better place to be than your arms🥰 Happy anniversary my love❤️ by @hungrymadrid

These last few weeks have been filled with ‘one last times’: the last order placed, the last training session, the last time to close the shop. Now after 6 years, and literal blood, sweat, and tears, my time at Butter& has come to an end. I wore many hats: designer, baker, cashier, customer service specialist, head chef, general manager, and company catchall (the first line when something inevitably goes wrong). Now I’ve hung these up one last time.

I started that journey pumping out quarantine cakes but ended in our own shop, all while bringing you a feature flavor every month in between (with a few exceptions). I can’t tell you how crazy it was to move into a brick-and-mortar right before the holidays, but it allowed us to put faces to names and vice versa. I got to meet long-time and new B& fans, as well as new butter people and all those that help keep a business running. So many strangers that I can now happily call friends.

I’ve finished this marathon, and I’m exhausted. While I’ll miss seeing these faces, I’m excited to rest up for my next chapter💛 by @hungrymadrid

Blueberry + Matcha is in the shop until May 3, but I’ll only be there until April 30. Today will be my last Sunday @butter_and, but I’ll be there Mon-Thurs next week (and the rest of this week). Stop by to say hello or goodbye or see ya later! A slice of this is a bittersweet consolation for the final countdown💜💚More to come… by @hungrymadrid

It’s finally come to an end. My time as the @xero website model is officially over. I had people reach out from the East Coast to Europe to check if it was in fact me. I guess that makes me an *ahem* international model 💁🏻‍♀️😂

This photo was probably taken 4-5 years ago. @butter_and was still in a shared commissary kitchen on the top floor of an industrial warehouse. Since this image was captured, we opened a brick and mortar, fixed several pieces of equipment, debuted dozens of flavors, released new products, searched for and trained new team members, served thousands of customers, and everything else in between that goes into running a small business😮‍💨. Xero has definitely helped give back some time so I can spend more time on the line in the store instead of the line items in our books. by @hungrymadrid

There’s still 2 more weeks of the Olympics to look forward to, but I’m looking back to the second leg of our Eurotrip in Italy. Grazi mile to the most chill friends that made it easy to make memories🫶🏼

It’s a new flavor! We’ve been dropping ice cream cakes with Garden Creamery. This month’s flavor is Vanilla Lilikoi ice cream and Yuzu buttercream on light brown sugar cake. Did I get you hype? Sorry not sorry to let you know that as soon as we dropped it, it sold out! by @hungrymadrid

The Butter& ladies made the birthday cake for KATSEYE’s Yoonchae!🎂Such an amazing series of moments. A recommendation from a customer turned into a last-minute cake, and for Isabelle, her concert turned into a meet and greet💕 by @hungrymadrid

Had an amazing time kicking off the inaugural brunch service for @dandelionchocolate 12 Nights of Chocolate!🎉 Haven’t worked service in quite some time but had lots of fun with this group. Thanks to the team at Dandelion for having me and for all the hard work that goes into pulling off such an incredible event!🙌🏼🍽️

This flavor will be in the @butter_and shop for the rest of November. Pre-orders open soon for Oolong Chocolate Sprinkle + Kinako Caramel.

Shoutout to @kedar.shenoy for being the best assistant. Ben and @redblossomteacompany for helping me find a delicious tea for this flavor. My fellow chefs for making it an unforgettable experience: @audieg @inamyskitchen @aramati. @sfmfoodbank for the great work they do, especially right now when people need it most!🙏🏼 And everyone who came to support🤎 by @hungrymadrid

Huge congratulations to @hungrymadrid for absolutely killing it at @dandelionchocolate ‘s first-ever 12 Nights brunch.

The amber Wuyi soaked light brown sugar cake, kinako caramel, chocolate-amber Wuyi buttercream was absolutely 🔥 by @hungrymadrid
