"If you’ve been a victim of hard, dry brownies at an office potluck, any batch from this Black-owned bakery in the Bok Building will lead to brownie redemption. You can order these gooey squares, plus babka slices and brown butter chocolate chip cookies for same-day pickup or delivery. Or head into their shop and walk out with eggy red pepper quiche and sweets that you'll want to share with everyone and keep to yourself at the same time." - candis mclean, alison kessler

Their website features the full menu, along with options to place orders." - George Banks-Weston
"Though this Black-owned bakery, located on the fourth floor of the Bok Building, is renowned for its exquisite collection of baked goods (like its scrumptious Brown Butter Jawn Cookie), its Weddings by Second Daughters services remain one of its best-kept secrets. Driven by a passion for creating nostalgic and elegant cakes, contact us to bring your dream cake to life." - George Banks-Weston
"Sisters Rhonda Saltzman and Mercedes Brooks are the geniuses behind Second Daughter Baking Co., an artisan bakery that crafts beautiful wedding cakes, elegant tarts, and fudgy, gooey brownies inside the Bok Building.
