Butternut Bakery Heads to the South!
Your butter half is now at SM Mall of Asia and Alabang West Parade
The looming pandemic has changed how we display our love and appreciation for one another. Many thanks to the growing number of delivery options available in the metro, sending over food (and padala) is more convenient. Cakes and other pastries are no longer just for special occasions, but are also perfect for an intimate handaan (gathering) at home, or even just to tell someone you miss them.
More people can now enjoy the selection of mouthwatering cakes over at Butternut Bakery—from the all-time crowd-favorite Brazo to their newest creation, an ode to the world’s best mangoes, the Guimaras Mango Créme Cake—with new locations in the metro.
