The Victorian Bakery

Best of KZOO Logo 2024

From-scratch baking is no small feat. To have their shelves stocked when they open their doors with bread, pastries and cakes, bakers often start their days while the rest of us are still sleeping.

And for Southwest Michigan customers, local bakers do not make our purchase decisions easy: with their cases piled high with mouth-watering treats, it’s hard not to bring home one (or two) of everything.

In our best restaurants of Kalamazoo voting, bakeries were one of our tightest races: proof that all of these are mega-talented and delicious.
