Stanley’s Bakery, Since 1948 just celebrated their 75th anniversary and is still going strong. Many people come from all over to get a treat from Stanley’s bakery – donuts, cakes, bread, and more!
Stanley’s has everything you can think of. Although Stanley’s is a German bakery, it still sells your normal bakery treats like cannolis and your classic rainbow cookies. They also have things you may have not tried before like German chocolate cake, pfeffernüsse – spice cookies mainly made around Christmas, stollen – a fruit bread made with dried fruit, Schweineohren or “elephant ears” – swirled puff pastry dipped in chocolate, German butter cake and much more. All day fresh buns and pastries are made to serve and they even have egg sandwiches from 6am to noon.

It’s something I take a lot of pride in to be able to be a part of many family celebrations throughout the years whether it’s birthdays or holidays. — Andrew Lorch, owner Stanley's bakery
