The latest Natick, Mass., business news:
Pixlcat Butter Mochi Cafe coming to Natick
Pixlcat Butter Mochi Cafe
is a mouthful, and the business hopes you’ll fill your mouth with its chewy, baked Hawaiian desserts when it opens at 5 Washington St. this fall.
This is located at the former Strike Up The Band site in between the mysterious Flats apartment complex that has been rising for years and Morse Institute Library.
Pixlcat is the brainchild of the three Lee brothers—Dennis, David, and Daniel—and their business partner and friend Jeff Kim. Their restaurant roots started in Boston, where the Lees’ mother ran a Thai-Korean-Japanese eatery. The brothers ran restaurants and a farm in California, COVID messed things up, but they made a comeback with a focused business on coffee and gluten-free butter mochi in a variety of flavors, including black sesame and matcha.
They still run a cafe in San Francisco, and had one in Charleston, Mass. The Charleston one has closed, and now plans are to open a new cafe in Natick.
You may have run across them at local farmers’ markets, where they are regulars.
