4 Best Bakeries near Ithaca

“A few weeks ago, I left Midland, MI, on my way to Hillsdale, MI for an adoption ceremony and my temperature gauge read HOT! I nursed my car to the next exit and landed in Ithaca. I stopped to ask people where I should go for service. Hub’s was suggested. I pulled in and Dylan/Dillon and his beautiful wife recommended going to Hearthstone Oven to grab some lunch, while they fixed my car. This restaurant was perfect, and even offered WiFi for this traveler. I enjoyed a delicious special of turkey/potato/stuffing for lunch. I was able to watch family friends adopt 2 precious little girls (Zoom)! The meal was so Yummy, the bathrooms were very clean and I was treated like family! Mary and the other servers were fabulous, kind, and ready to assist with anything I needed. Thank you God, Hearthstone Oven, Mary, and a special thank you to the kind couple that overheard my troubles! Not only did they pay for my lunch, they also asked Mary to give me a $50 bill to help with my car repairs! Ithaca certainly made me feel welcome, cared for, and safe! If I ever break down again, I hope I am near Ithaca! Kerissa“

“I live a bit a way from here, but most times when I have to go to Lansing, I am sure to take the route to the Country Bakery. I absolutely love their pecan rolls and especially their cinnamon rolls. My Mother in law discovered this yummiest place years ago. Now we have request when we head to Lansing. Also love their crafts, I have bought many, many rice bags. thank you all for being you“

“Sweet Lilly’s Cakes provided a small 2-tier cake(cherry chip with vanilla buttercream) and 300 cupcakes(chocolate, vanilla and cherry chip with vanilla buttercream) for my wedding in July 2023. Cake tasted phenomenal and the presentation was beautiful. I gave faux florals for her to work with and asked her to surprise me and it turned out better than imagined. Was always punctual with communication and answered any questions we had. I couldn’t have asked for a better small business to provide my wedding cake. Would recommend to anyone for all your cake needs!“
