Bakeries near Independence

“A big shout out to Independence Kroger. After the mad house it’s been everyone preparing for the winter storm, I was up that way around 9:00 tonight and really didn’t think they would be open, nothing was open anywhere except UDF. I went in to get a couple things and to see a couple friendly faces. Everyone was working so hard. The shelves were all stocked full. The store looked so clean and not a cart in the parking lot anywhere. Thanks to all you workers who was there in the middle of an ice storm and bitter temperatures. God Bless you all and I pray you make it home safely. You all deserve a raise.“

“I love having this small precious bakery that truly has amazing chocolate chip cookies. Stopped in after getting my nails done I had a craving went in for cc cookie but also bought oatmeal Whoopi cream cookie and I am absolutely in love!! Also have had the pumpkin cream cookie ♥️♥️♥️. I’m dying to try the pop tarts but they sell out fast. They are so fresh and they go quickly so get there early. I stopped by one early afternoon for oatmeal cream and choc chip SOLD out but a fresh batch was a 5 minute wait. I’m a huge fan!!“

“Needless to say, these are a hit!! These are the PERFECT treats for business/customer purposes. The cookies look outstanding and they taste even better. The team at Little Flour is able to do any logo you wish on the cookies. They’re able to individually wrap them 2 different ways or keep them as is, laying on a tray. The staff is always friendly, the orders are always timely and our office uses them quite often for cookie orders as such…and we will continue to spread the word!“

“Oishii! Delicious! Came in for lunch and thoroughly enjoyed everything about this delightful gem. The onigiri and karaage lunch combo was perfect, light and healthy with a side salad. We also tried two cakes, a strawberry creme and matcha roll. Again, light and subtle flavors always leave you with room for one more bite.“

“My friend and I happened upon this gem while on a girls day in Latonia. From the minute we walked in, we were welcomed with open arms. The baristas answered our questions and whipped up the most delicious drinks. The owner introduced herself and showed us around, quickly becoming a friend. We sat for a while on the amazing pink velvet couch and fell in love with this quaint little shop. Before we left, the owner offered to loan out her personal shopping cart (which she decorated for us). It was a memorable day and we will definitely be back!“

“We got a vegan vanilla cake with a pistachio buttercream for my daughter's birthday. (It was sonic the hedgehog themed) and it was a delicious cake. The pistachio buttercream turned out to be a big hit with the guest. This place never disappoints.“

“Not only is this place super cute, the food, drinks, and pastries are delicious. You must stop by here and give this place your business! I has a white chocolate latte, the chilaquiles, and a cheese/strawberry danish. Very impressed by this unassuming little shop.“

“I’m not a big pastry/doughnut fan, but my family is. Whenever they get some, I’ll try some if they say it’s really good. So I’ve tried a lot of pastries. Most of the time, my reaction is yeah, they’re ok. When I tried North South’s pastries, I can honestly say they’re the best I’ve ever had. By far. 5 stars isn’t enough.“

“This place is just phenomenal from service to food to pastries the best stop in NKY/ Cincinnati! A staple garnished with family environment and farm to table just amazing! The half sausage gravy AMAZING!Kid-friendliness: Amazing kids happy and smiling!“

“How did I not know this place was here? Seriously everything you could want from a smoothie spot. Focus on nutrition and health, with great prices. Come visit. Start your day with one of their smoothies and you won't regret it. Lol. I promise this is not a paid or sponsored review. I'm just blown away by the service I received and how I didn't know this place was so close to my house.“

“You must try these Bundt cakes to understand. They are soooooooooo insanely good. They’re now my go-to for any nice celebration. Birthdays, showers, dinner party, anything. I didn’t understand what the big deal was until a colleague brought them in to work and I reluctantly tried them. 10/10“

“Absolutely love Graeter's ice cream. Every flavor is my favorite !! If you haven't stopped in, I highly suggest you do. They will not disappoint. Great desert candy donuts, etc. ... And last but not least the service is outstanding.“

“The poor gal working was the only employee for today. She was apologetic, explained the situation, and proceeded to do a fantastic job serving all the customers. The donuts and pastries are superb. Need a fruit cake for Xmas? They have freshly made fruitcakes for sale. They also had bread. I have not tasted their fresh bread, but if it's anything like the donuts, pastries, fritters, etc. then it has to be delicious. They've been in the area as long as I can remember...there's a reason for that.“

“Love, love, love their chocolate eclairs and filled longjohns! If their glazed round and twists were as tender and fluffy as they used to be, I'd rate them 5 stars. My Family Loves the smiley face cookies and danishes too. I understand the turnovers and cream horns are the best. My dad used to get him some every week when he was alive.“

“I think Busken Bakery speaks for itself. I came to this Busken Bakery to pick up our holiday Schencken. There are several locations available for pickup. Last year I went to the Busken on Madison. This location has to be the busiest during the holidays. Parking was a challenge. Figuring out where to go for pickup was a challenge. For these reasons I decided to try the Highland Heights location. I'm so glad I did. First, getting there was a breeze! Get your car onto 471 and go until it ends and you're pretty much there. I used GPS to get there, but getting there was so simple, no GPS was needed to get home (we live in Delhi). If you are a once-a-year Busken shopper and Highland Heights is reasonably close, I recommend picking up there. I was in and out in nothing flat.“

“They have the best donuts by far in Northern Kentucky I go there every Saturday morning hoping to see the little old ladies that are there and get donuts for my grandkids, my husband and I it's our Saturday tradition. They are always nice and fresh and those women are amazing“

“The new Lemon Meringue Pie ice cream is the best flavor ever!! I hope it stays.It is so nice to go into a store and be greeted the way I am at the Taylor Mill location. Adam is so kind and friendly. He is fun to talk with and isa great role model for the other employees. Keep up the fantastic work!!“
