24 Best Bakeries near Candler

“What in the world???! I had driven by Whisk AVL for years and man am I kicking myself now. You can’t see the baked goods (I couldn’t from the car) but the prices were reasonable/on par with other bakeries.. Yall!! She’s tricking us! Charging us normal cinnamon roll prices and somehow the rolls themselves are bigger than your head! Worth it, stop by, you’ll be happy you did!“

“We ordered a chocolate cheesecake and she delivered the flavor! She responds very quickly and everything went smoothly. Address was easy to find for pickup, she took Venmo, and was very sweet! She came highly recommended from someone who says “anything you order will be the best you’ve had!”. Ordering was easy, too!“

“Best bread and cinnamon rolls! Bought them at the Leicester tailgate market. Practically ate the cinnamon rolls on the way home. The bread with seeds has the best texture and the flavor is excellent with an entree, soup, salad, or sandwich. The bread has a wonderful crust and beautiful inside texture. One slice is not enough. The loaf was so delicious I found myself just having a slice as a snack with a great olive oil. I spent most of my market money on Susi bread and was happy I did. Today was tailgate market Wednesday in Leicester and a thunderstorm was the weather. Nevertheless, I was late and practically cried to note Susi Bread like others wrapped up early. I am now googling their other locations and am determined to find those cinnamon rolls and delicious bread.“

“The pies are wonderful coconuts probably my favorite but the Bavarian cream is right up there.“

“I recently moved back to Candler and discovered Budgie’s —— I won’t be able to stay out of that place! It’s so good! I’ve tried a variety of their tasty treats and I was impressed that every single item I picked was DELICIOUS. The food is made with care and heart, which shows through in how they treat their customers with friendly I felt right at home talking about the buffet of treats and shopping their local artist section. I’ve heard many friends and neighbors speak highly of the bakery. Especially the extent to which they helped take care of the community during Helene and continue to in so many different ways. I’m looking forward to Sunday Doughnut Day!!!“

“Where to start?! I’ve been gluten free for more than 15 years. It’s hard to find good gluten free dessert (even making your own)! My hubby surprised me with a cake from Butterbug’s and WOW! Everything they’ve made is delicious! I love the flavor combinations. I cannot recommend them enough!! My latest scrumptious treat…Pink Paradise Grapefruit Cheesecake! It was mouthwatering!!!!“

“What an absolute gem of a bakery! I help feed the community and these amazing folks donated loaves of bread, and included some pastries for me! Some of the best croissants I’ve ever had in my life. I’m in love!“

“My husband and I love Mattie Lou’s! Everyone there is incredibly kind and welcoming. The biggest problem I have is not buying one of each item. My husband loves the peanut butter cookies and the biscuits. Her ham and cheese croissants are the best I’ve ever had. I also love the brown sugar lattes. Mattie Lou has become our Friday must visit.“

“Every time I go into Crumbl cookie they are getting down in there. They have nobody working in the cash register they have to stop mixing the cookie dough to service It’s clients. That calls for hard-working bakers, determined and loyal to the company.“

“I wanted to stop and get a cookie there for ages, today finally made the hubby get out of the car and go in while I circle the block to pick him back up. They are the best ….got two to share…. an oatmeal raisin and a peanut butter, half dipped in thick chocolate. Scrumptious.!“

“Recently went to Asheville for a long weekend vacation. We had our breakfast at Owl every single morning! All of the baked goods, sweet and savory, rival anything found anywhere. Delicious lattes are served by the most charming staff! I would drive back to Asheville just to visit this beautiful bakery.“

“Stopped by on Saturday as we were waiting on our table at Sunny Pointe. Amazing food! Super-friendly staff. Awesome vibe!! We will adding it to our list of “musts” for our regular Asheville weekends. 5+ stars!“

“Am crazy about Annie’s Cranberry Walnut bread! Delicious by itself, toasted, or as a sandwich - chicken, some mayo, chutney and lettuce - awesome!“

“Just putting up a 5 star to offset the psycho who put a 1 star for this place not wearing a mask during Covid. Been to the outdoor mall twice and still haven't been here as it's not in the food court and even Google maps is no help to find it.“

“Last years birthday cake for my wife was my first purchase They have the Vegan cakes. I am on my way to pick up this years cake and it has become a yearly ritual now. Lemon blueberry cream with fruit topping. 🤤 😋“

“There is no better bakery because there is no better cookie than the West End Matcha Cookie! 💚✅“

“I’ve been seeing AVLCAKELADY everywhere and finally got to try it tonight. When I say it was amazing!!! Didn’t disappoint at all!!!! It was so moist and flavorful!!“

“I heard about Biscuit Head about a month ago, through a Facebook ad. We were in Asheville to visit Biltmore after Christmas,and visited Biscuit Head on Biltmore Ave twice in two days! The whole staff was so friendly, and the vibe in the restaurant is so fun!! Everything we had both days was fantastic! I ordered the Mimosa fried chicken biscuit both days, and the biscuit donuts, as well! I had to keep apologizing to my family because I was making too many “yum” noises. My husband said the sausage gravy was the best he’s had in ever, and your coffee was great!! When we left yesterday, we genuinely intended to come back for Brunch #3, but the moods were not in our favor today. We look forward to coming back next time we are in Asheville!!“
