Brooklyn Born Bakery is a cottage bakery business selling signature cupcakes and cookies at local farmers markets and for charities. Brooklyn Born Bakery offers baked items made with traditional ingredients.
My brand is about growing up in Brooklyn with special memories of the influencers in my life who taught me about baking. Through their special recipes and baker secrets, they cultivated my beginner’s mind, leading me to become a bakester with a brand that supports classic family favorites in cookies and cupcakes.
At Brooklyn Born Bakery, there is nothing more satisfying than to enjoy than the freshness and quality that is used to make a home baked butter cookie or a cupcake topped with creamy icing reminiscent of one’s childhood and to also build a new legacy of tradition.
My Story
Why Brooklyn Born Bakery?
Why Brooklyn Born Bakery?
My grandmothers were mentors who taught me how to knead cookie dough to its “just right” texture and consistency and to apply the rolling pin gently over the flat circles of dough. They guided my hands to use the cookie cutters to make the crisp edged, shaped creations of stars and hearts.

My grandmothers were mentors who taught me how to knead cookie dough to its “just right” texture and consistency and to apply the rolling pin gently over the flat circles of dough. They guided my hands to use the cookie cutters to make the crisp edged, shaped creations of stars and hearts.
My mother and I shopped on Havemeyer Street in Williamsburg. I could always count on a stop at our local bakery. Entering the screen door of the shop, I was overcome by the sweet fragrance of butter and sugar, the base of every butter cookie with the special candied cherry! From behind the domed glass showcase, as the bakery shop owner was wrapping the red and white twine around our boxed baked goods, he would let me choose a cookie for free from the shelved varieties. I ritually scanned the cookie trays several times from top to bottom and would point to that favored spritz cookie!
Birthdays were cherished in my life. When it was time to celebrate, a round cake with thick white frosting shaped with bows and frilly adornments encased the interior of the yellow cake and a chocolate pudding layer. The top of the cake was graced with pink gel lettering that said, “Happy Birthday” and beside it, the frosted petaled pink flower. When the first slice was presented, it was served with that delicate flower. I savored it as a magical dream prepared with love by my mother and grandmothers.
When I was growing up, home baked foods were an important part of the day's meal. Over the years, watching and learning, I have been perfecting my baking skills as a vocation and sharing my baked goods to witness the joy it brings to others with child- hearted memories of bakeries and life's important family traditions.

Brooklyn Born Bakery prepares cookies and cupcakes using human friendly ingredients such as glazes for cupcakes with natural dyes, and upon request, gluten free and vegan.
What does it mean when a product says, “Gluten Free”?
“Gluten is the protein found in wheat, barley, rye, and other similar grains like triticale, a hybrid of wheat and rye.” (Mayo Clinic) This protein acts as a binding agent, making batters and dough sticky and giving them their structure and shape. Gluten provides elasticity and stability, holding together cookies, cakes, pastries, and other favorite baked goods. For some folks, gluten is not easily tolerated.
Brooklyn Born Bakery provides an alternative in the baked items! The bakester uses a name brand, certified gluten-free substitute for all-purpose flour, which also serves as an alternative to wheat flour such as rice flour or almond flour to act as a binding agent for the baked items.
What does it mean when a product says, “Vegan”?
Vegan baking means a baker is not using any animal products in your recipes. While traditionally most cakes, for example, would have eggs, milk and sometimes butter, a vegan cake, cookie or cupcake won't have any of those ingredients.
Brooklyn Born Bakery does use flour, sugar, oil, and leaveners like baking soda and baking powder, because they don't come from animals so they're completely ok to use. Brooklyn Born Bakery substitutes, as needed, ingredients into the baked goods, such the name brand certified chocolate chips that don't contain any milk and/or honey.
