About Alexis

Butter Cakery is inspired by my Grandma Linda, a true hostess who brought beauty and intention to everything she made. Her handwritten recipes, refined palate, and effortless elegance sparked my love for baking. After we lost her to breast cancer, I found deep joy in recreating her recipes for my grandfather—especially when he’d light up with each bite.

My mother always reminds us: “When babies are born they cry and everyone smiles. So live your life so when you pass, you can smile and let everyone else cry.” That’s the heart behind everything I do.

I studied fashion before settling in the South and opening Butter Cakery in Natchez, Mississippi. The bakery blends my love for antique charm, real butter, and thoughtful design. You’ll even find a few of Grandma Linda’s heirlooms—and her portrait—gracing the space.

Butter Cakery is more than a bakery. It’s a love letter to family, beauty, and the joy of creating something worth remembering.
