Butterfly Bakery is a locally owned and operated bakery in Lincoln, Nebraska. We take pride in the work we we do – baking our cakes and pastries fresh and in-house. We value creating a safe and positive work environment for our staff and a welcoming environment for our customers.

Butterfly Bakery was founded in Lincoln in 2009 and acquired by Sunflower House Endeavors LLC in April of 2024, after being sold two times previously. Over those years, Butterfly Bakery has set itself apart through its work in custom and artisan cakes. While cake makes up about 50% of what we do – we also serve fresh breakfast and high-end pastries out of the case 7 days a week.

Butterfly Bakery has an established legacy of being an inclusive space celebrating and providing a safe space for LGBTQIA+ communities. We regularly provide donations to like-minded organizations, and donate a portion of sales each June to celebrate Pride month.

Butterfly Bakery, and our sister company, Sunflower House Cookies operate under the parent company Sunflower House Endeavors LLC. SHE LLC unites a family of businesses with a shared mission to positively impact the community we serve. We work towards excellence and strive to create a workplace culture of growth, learning, and mutual respect. Below are the Core Values that guide us in everything we do.

  • Building community

    Our businesses aim to be an asset to the communities we work in and for them to be proud to have us in their neighborhood. We believe diversity makes us strong – and we are proud to create a safe and inclusive space.

  • Desire to serve

    We care about serving people. We aim to delight and impress our customers – leaving them feeling seen and cared for.

  • Aim for Excellence

    We want to be known as the best in what we do. We don’t do things just to do them – we do our work because it’s what we’re good at. We maintain high quality standards in our work.

  • Lead with Learning

    We are problem solvers. We ask questions to understand. We know that no one has all the answers and there is always room for more knowledge and improvement. We believe that a learning mindset is essential for growth.

  • A Growth Mindset

    We aim to grow – in our craft and in the scale and impact of our business. We stay on top of trends and always look for ways to improve.

  • Respect

    We respect ourselves, our co-workers, our customers, our work, and our workplace and expect the same in return. We do not tolerate hate, bullying, bigotry, or harassment.
