Our Mission

What began as a rather general desire to “create sweet gifts that foster connection” has become a very intentional journey to learn and love our city, the Bull City, in impactful ways.

DTCO's mission is to personally affect provision and wholeness for every Durham resident by sharing our profits, time, and hearts today and always. To that end, we give 15% or more of our profits every year to local charities and causes we believe will impact hearts and make Durham a home for everyone. Some of our favorite local nonprofits are Durham Cares, Food Bank of NC, NC Diaper Bank, and World Relief.

Our Kitchen

Our outreach and investment in Durham begins in our kitchen. We have a lively team of family, friends, and locals that makes creating our sweet treats an absolute joy. Without the support of our friends and employees we would not be able to give back nor would we have the spirit. We are proud of our sweet, little home kitchen because of its constant playfulness, laughter, and quality work.

So here we are. This is the direction of our mission. For the health of us all, we stay in the present moment, hearts flung open to the Spirit and one another, offering our yeses one at a time.
