Our Story  ·  Est. 2011

15 Years ofCraft, Precision & Trust.

From one determined founder in 2011 to a full-service partner for the Bay Area's most demanding calendars — trusted by Fortune 500 teams to deliver style, flavor, and flawless execution at any scale.

Style.

Every detail — from linens to plating — considered with intent.

Flavor.

Locally-sourced, seasonal menus that honor the ingredients.

Quality.

No shortcuts. The same standard for 10 guests or 3,000.

From Payroll Accountant to Foodpreneur

Pinky Cooper

Founder & CEO

Pinx Catering officially launched at the “Vote for Your Vendor” food contest hosted by La Cocina and Whole Foods in 2011. The debut featured Sweet Potato Pie Waffles and Salted Bourbon Caramel Sauce — a dish that stopped the room.

Following the festival's success, Pinky Cooper made a decision. On 11/11/11, she left her full-time payroll accounting career to pursue the venture full time — a date she calls her favorite number.

15 years later, Pinx has grown from a single contest entry to the Bay Area's most trusted name in premium catering — serving Fortune 500 boardrooms, Forbes-listed CEOs, and the milestone moments families never forget.

“There's just something about putting a smile on someone's face — it made me feel warm inside. I don't know if it was the happy faces eating or the sound of laughter among friends, probably a little of both.”
