Eat Cake 4 Breakfast and its Real Estate at 26 Wampum Drive has SOLD!

BREWSTER, MA – May 20, 2025 – Commercial Realty Advisors is proud to announce the sale of Eat Cake 4 Breakfast and its associated real estate located at 26 Wampum Drive in Brewster, Massachusetts. Chef Danielle Nettleton passed the keys of the beloved seasonal French patisserie to Massachusetts siblings Tara, Tori, and TJ Nelson on May 6, 2025. The deal was brokered by Brad Kuhrtz and Craig Campbell of Commercial Realty Advisors, who listed the offering in October of 2024.

The Business: Founded in 2015 by pastry chef Danielle Nettleton, Eat Cake 4 Breakfast quickly earned a reputation as one of Cape Cod’s most sought-after bakery destinations. Known for its signature “Brewster Buns” and high-end French pastries with an American twist, the business has drawn loyal crowds throughout the Cape’s busy summer season. Often selling out by noon and generating lines around the building, the bakery became a staple for locals and tourists alike. 

The Real Estate: Housed in a charming ±3,328 square foot building constructed in 1995, the bakery occupies a well-situated property in Brewster’s Village Center. In 2019, Danielle Nettleton transformed 26 Wampum Drive from a two-story office building into a charming Parisian-style patisserie. Her renovations included vaulted ceilings, ADA-compliant bathrooms, updated utilities, new plumbing, and a 1,000-gallon grease trap, all of which contributed to more than doubling the property’s value since her purchase.

The Buyers: Tara, Tori, and TJ Nelson, the new owners of Eat Cake 4 Breakfast, come from a close-knit, entrepreneurial family in Medway, Massachusetts. Together with their parents, they launched and grew the Massachusetts franchise of Cousins Maine Lobster, gaining valuable experience in high-volume food service and hospitality. With a deep appreciation for quality ingredients, branding, and community, the trio is well-prepared to carry on the legacy of founder Danielle Nettleton. In a heartfelt message shared on the bakery’s social media, they expressed gratitude for Danielle’s creative vision and announced plans to reopen in June, inviting loyal customers and new guests alike.

This sale underscores the ongoing demand for well-established, high-traffic food service businesses on Cape Cod, especially those that include real estate.
