Reply (Michael DeSantis/Patch) BERKELEY, CA — Do you love tasty Hawaiian treats such as chocolate haupia pie, butter mochi, and Queen Emma cake made with layers of passion fruit, guava and coconut mousse? If so, you're in luck -- the East Bay's first Hawaiian bakery will open Friday in Berkeley. Ono Bakehouse is the creation of Desiree Valencia, a Maui native who has worked at Morimoto Napa, Bouchon Bakery, Saison, and Niku Steakhouse. She lost her job because of the coronavirus pandemic and pivoted to running a pop-up called Ono Snax, at Magnolia Mini Mart, in West Oakland. It was a huge success.
