Third Culture Bakery is more than a business that serves up fresh-baked mochi pastries and matcha beverages to an ever-growing consumer base; it's a place where culture and love are intertwined.


The journey began with a love story between Sam Butarbutar and Wenter Shyu who, while studying in Berkeley, decided to start the bakery in 2016 celebrating their childhoods growing up as third culture kids—those who have been raised in cultures different from their parents’. Drawing inspiration from Indonesian desserts his mother made, Sam created the signature recipe of what is now every fan's favorite Mochi Muffins.


To make it all happen, Wenter worked full-time while Sam spent all day baking. They then drove around delivering their pastries to the six wholesale coffee shops they had locked down contracts with–all without fail. Soon enough, their Mochi Muffins gained a huge following throughout the Bay Area for remaining relevant to today's culture and tastes while still holding a hint of nostalgia. After just one year, they had expanded to over 60 wholesale locations with a team that included bakers, delivery drivers, retail staff, and managers—with more than 20 individuals on board.


Third Culture Bakery is an example of how you can achieve extraordinary success when founded upon love for one another and dedication to hard work.
