OUR STORY

It started at the family table, at four in the afternoon.

Merienda — the afternoon pause for something sweet — was never optional in our house. The recipes in our kitchen today are the ones we grew up sharing.

A vintage chocolate cake for a neighbour's birthday — piped at the kitchen counter, delivered by hand.

The bakery opens
A real kitchen, a small team, and a pastry case that sells out most afternoons.
Today
Cakes across the city
Custom orders, weddings, and wholesale cases for cafés — still baked like it's for family.

Baked like it's for family. Because it usually is.

Every cake is made to order — real butter, slow-steamed leche flan, ube halaya cooked the long way. No freezer shelf, no shortcuts.

When you order from Merienda & Co., you're getting the same cake we'd put on our own table at four o'clock.

Have an occasion coming up? Let's bake for it.
