20 Best Bakeries near Okemos

“I stopped in for the first time on Saturday afternoon. I bought two loaves of bread (cinnamon swirl & espresso chocolate chip) and two goodies - a peanut butter cookie and an almondine - I should NOT have done that, I should not have bought just one, I should have bought them ALL! They were amazing. The cookie and the breads are also fabulous! The cinnamon swirl makes AMAZING French toast! The owner gave me a tip of putting it in the freezer for about 15 minutes before slicing it and THEN making the French toast. It worked fantastically and it was SO good! The espresso chocolate chip just takes about 15 seconds in the microwave before you spread butter on it and eat it with your coffee.I don’t know why I have never stopped in here before, but now, this is where I will get my specialty breads. Unlike other places, he isn’t raising his prices through the roof, he is keeping the costs low for the customers. I also learned that all of the bread is made fresh each night and whatever doesn’t sell is donated to different organizations. This owner is someone that cares about his community and his customers and that was so refreshing to hear. It was great talking with him and the other employee that was there, I walked out of there feeling happy and excited to 1) try all my goodies, and 2) feeling like I had found a new treasure.I definitely recommend Breadsmith and will be going back as soon as we finish the what we have!“

“I would like to say a big THANK YOU to everyone there today....I THOUGHT I ordered a cake online but apparently did something wrong...the ladies hooked me up WHILE I WAITED and had me out the door in record time. THANKS! just doesn't seem enough....you saved the day. Inside I was freaking out and hope not too much of that showed through. An almost bad experience for me turned out by the professional and courteous staff here.“

“We were looking for a culinary experience to celebrate our 27th anniversary. Our initial plan was to visit to Turkey itself, but were unable to make it happen this year. A friend recommended the Social Sloth so we thought we’d give it a try. Wow! We were so amazed by the food, the presentation, the ambiance, the friendliness, the willingness to spend time and talk with us about the dishes, about Turkey and its history. You made our anniversary so memorable!“

“Touches my soul and heart. everytime, bless you always. 🌺🌸✨“

“OHHHH MY! Literally the best cupcakes I have ever had. I bought four different flavors and a small red velvet cake and ALL of them would fool someone who doesn’t even have celiac. Thank you for your customer service and amazing cakes.“

“These cheesecakes are straight fire. I tried the plain and strawberry cheesecake tonight and both are delicious. The plain was creamy with a great crust. Strawberry cheesecake has a fantastic flavor and the crumbles on top set it off. The owner came out to greet us which added to the great experience of this spot. Can’t wait to try more flavors and will definitely be a regular. Can’t wait to see what they do with the storefront in the future.“

“Tried the jalapeno popper sandwich and it was amazing!“

“I stopped in for the first time to treat myself for my bday because one of my friends recommended this place. The owners were so nice, the store had a nice relaxing feeling and everything in the cases looked fresh, pretty & delicious. I bought a few things which included a lemon pound cake cookie and wow it has to be one of the best lemon cookies I’ve ever had! I’m glad I stopped in and recommend you stop in sometime too. I’ll definitely be back to try some more of their treats. Thank you for the great service and yummy sweets!“

“The Coconut Cream pie was fantastic and flavorful, made the way my mom would make a pie when I was growing up. The only takeaway that I can see is the thick crust at the edge of the pie, it's more of a personal preference for me , everything else shouts " Come back for more !!!!"

Wheelchair accessibility: It's a sidewalk entrance into the store. not really sure if it is wheelchair accessible, but for the pie I would sit outside and stare through the window !!“

“The food was delicious and served promptly. The service was also very friendly. Definitely plan on going back.“

“Dear Mitten Raised Bakery, Catering/Wedding - We worked with Katie to cater/deliver 160 cupcakes and a 8" cake for our wedding. We would 150% recommend Mitten Raised! Katie (owner) was amazing from the moment I inquired about her services (about 6 months prior) to when she delivered them with her team. We ended up getting strawberry shortcake and lemon drops in a cake cup, and shoreline and a marbled decorative cupcakes, They were all delicious and our guests are still raving about them. We also ordered a simple white cake for us to cut, and honestly it was one of my favorites - it was just the right amount of sweetness, flavor, and texture! Katie was also very responsive and sweet throughout multiple emails. I had to change the count and flavors multiple times, and she responded instantly and always in a friendly manner. We've also been into Mitten Raised for separate sweet-treat occasions, and it never disappoints! Please consider catering through Mitten Raised! We love their baked goods, professionality, and if we were to ever have a large event again - I would book them in a heartbeat.“

“I wanted to send cupcakes to my daughter for her Birthday to her dorm. The pricing was perfect with adding delivery. The cupcakes were delivered in perfect condition and were just as beautiful as the picture provided on the site. Thank you so much for making this happened!“

“Great cupcakes, and service!“

“We tried Tantay Lansing today at the lansing road rally, 10/10! The wings were just the right amount of spice and had a unique flavor. Donuts were bomb too. best food truck we visited today!“

“We stopped in on a whim and so glad we did. The space was incredible, well decorated, and inviting. Thanks, Luke, you were a fantastic host! We’ll definitely be back.“

“Beth did an amazing job on our wedding cake! It was delicious and absolutely beautiful. I can’t wait to eat it again on our first anniversary.“

“I’ve been a resident in the nursing home on the corner and my window faces Groovy Donuts. Lo and behold I had a visitor this morning who stopped and got us a half dozen. All of the donuts were so fresh and moist. Hopefully I will be able to come back when I leave here. Great job!!!!!“

“A little neighborhood coffee and pastry shop. Friendly staff. An interesting selection of pastries and a good place to get a decent coffee.“

“Wow I was just on this side of town and I asked Siri “coffee near me” she gave bigby and then this place. Let me tell you I don’t regret choosing here. Ambiance 10/10 calm relaxing chill. I’d come here to finish up work and have coffee any day. DONT GET ME STARTED ON THE ASIAGO BAGEL. Fun fact. One of the workers sisters I’m assuming she’s the owner said her sister learned baking in England and uses that for the IN HOUSE MADE PASTRIES AND BAGELS. When I say light and airy and absolute perfection. I will be back … it’s kind of far from me but I will come back for that bagel alone!!! But everything else is amazing as well. And they don’t skimp on the cream cheese!! Also super friendly staff! 10/10“
