The Butter Book ("BB") was born from a lifelong passion for pastry and a deep desire to bring something truly special to the heart of Midtown Memphis. My journey began here, but it took me across the country and beyond, from Memphis to Seattle, Vancouver, and back, where I was fortunate to experience world-class bakeries and globally inspired café culture.  Driven by that passion, I trained at one of North America's top pastry programs, the Pacific Institute of Culinary Arts (PICA) in Vancouver, BC. There, I immersed myself in the art and discipline of traditional French baking, mastering the techniques that now form the foundation of The Butter Book.  My vision is simple: To marry the refinement of French pastry techniques with the soul of Memphis cuisine and culture. Inspired by my global travels and years of exposure to top-tier bakeries, The Butter Book represents a refined yet welcoming destination, a place where sophistication meets authenticity, where every detail matters, and where every layer is crafted with care. The Butter Book isn't just another coffee shop; it's an invitation to slow down, connect, and savor life's small, beautiful moments.
