Butter Pecan Bakeshop is preparing to open a new location in Antioch, at The Crossings shopping center. The location will be operated by Dale and Desirée Ingram, who are joining the brand as franchisees.
During an interview with WhatNow, the Ingrams explained that their connection to Butter Pecan Bakeshop began with Dale’s enthusiasm for the brand’s cookies. He would drive from the Brentwood, Oakley, and Antioch area to the company’s Pinole location to buy his favorites.
Butter Pecan Bakeshop offers a selection of cookie flavors ranging from classics to seasonal varieties. Its lineup includes Dark Chocolate & Sea Salt, Brown Butter Pecan, Cookies & Cream, Banana Pudding, Oatmeal Raisin Pecan, Dark Chocolate Walnut, Banana Toffee, Strawberries & Cream, Walnut Brownie, Birthday Cake, Tea Cake Cookie, and Pecan Pie. The shop also features monthly flavors, giving customers rotating options alongside its classic offerings.
Dale and Desirée said they specifically wanted to establish a business close to home. They have lived in the area since 2020 and wanted their business activities and investments to be connected to the community where they live.
Butter Pecan Bakeshop founder Wendell said Antioch was already an area with strong customer demand, including customers traveling from Brentwood, Oakley, Pittsburg, and Antioch to visit the brand’s existing locations.
The new shop is scheduled to open in October and customers can expect the brand’s hand-baked cookies influenced by Southern classic desserts, along with the company’s established customer-service approach.
The Ingrams said they plan to maintain the brand’s standards while bringing what they described as Southern hospitality to the customer experience.
