Buttercooky Bakery opened its doors September 1962 in Floral Park, NY. Since that day, we have made it our mission to supply the Long Island community with the highest quality and freshest baked goods. Living by our trademarked motto, "Baked with Butter, Makes It Better." From these humble beginnings, we have continued to grow and expand in our never-ending pursuit for excellence, and have gained a loyal following. In February 1996, our Floral Park location expanded into the storefront next door giving us more space to create our delicious desserts. This additional space allowed us to increase our productivity and broaden our product line.
As we made more cakes and pastries, customers began flooding our store to pick up our wares and our popularity grew. This increased demand for our high quality items warranted us opening up our second location in November 2005 in Manhasset, NY. Buttercooky Bakery has grown to become a local hot spot...
