ButterQueen Bakery Takoma Park, MD

From $18 an hour

About us

ButterQueen Bakery is a mobile black-owned and woman-owned bakery based in Takoma Park, MD specializing in made-from-scratch southern style pound cakes and treats. We also curate gluten free and vegan options that do not hold back on taste or texture! Our grandma introduced us to the world of baking at a young age with her recipes and baking techniques. This eventually led to us baking as a fun hobby for friends, family, and small community events. Due to demand, we turned the hobby into a business.

Grandma gave us a cool nickname in the kitchen decades ago, so we thought it'd be a fitting name for the business she inspired. Her ButterQueen. Remember, if there's no butter (or vegan butter), did you really eat cake?

Our aim is to curate great tasting southern desserts, source local ingredients, and empower marginalized communities.

Since our bakery stems from southern family tradition, we place a high importance on people and how our tasty desserts make people feel. Our shared desserts bring forth good memories with great people and create space for new memories and new community. In our community, everyone is welcome. This is why we do what we do.

Our work environment includes:

  • Growth opportunities
  • Casual work attire
  • Regular social events
  • Relaxed atmosphere
  • On-the-job training
  • Safe work environment
  • Lively atmosphere
