About Us

We believe in the power of food—not only to heal us but also to bring us joy and comfort in the times we need it most.

We bonded immediately when we met at the entrance of our law school building in Berkeley, California. Within days, we discovered a shared love for travel, baked goods… and the (not so) occasional late-night nachos. Our friendship continued when we started working at the same law firm in Los Angeles, chatting in each other’s offices and munching on foods that made the long work hours a little more enjoyable. Slowly but surely, though, those conventional processed “treats” took a toll on our bodies.

As we began to transform our diets, we scoured the aisles of our favorite health food stores for desserts that fit our new clean eating guidelines. But there was a bump in the road: instead of sparking joy, these snacks just reminded us of our restrictions.

So, we rolled up our sleeves and began experimenting with nutritious ingredients like tahini—staples in our own homes growing up. The result? Ooey-gooey, soft-baked cookies that were too delicious not to share with others on health journeys and really, anyone who loves cookies.

Brune Kitchen is our way of spreading happiness, one bite at a time.
