4 Best Bakeries near Saranac Lake

“Melissa made us 2 birthday cakes for a family reunion. One was strawberry with buttercream frosting. The other was carrot cake with cream cheese frosting. First, they were beautiful! They were creatively decorated in an Adirondack theme. Then, they were delicious! And now they are gone. Everyone loved them. 😊 The price was a good deal, too.“

“If you didn't see the signs, or ask the locals, you might miss this gem. The minute you walk in you are greated with the smell of a bakery that knows its stuff. Then the most welcome greeting from the owner. Now, the even better part. The goods. So many good choices, so we tried a variety. Went with the apple cider crullers, bagels, and the house specialty donkey knuckle. A roll baked with cheddar cheese and a local dairies cheese(jay i believe). I asked for it heated, and it did not disappoint. We grabbed a bunch for the ride home, as we were in town to see my son at his college. Once we got home and tried the rest. Oh dear lord. Baked heaven. Ill tell you this. It will be a must go to when im back in town for my son. I could go on, but ill leave it at this. A truly hidden gem.“

“I used Jamdots Baking Co. for the first time in June to make a bridal shower cake. The cake was wonderful—it was exactly like I’d ordered and delivered right on time to the venue in Lake Placid. It was delicious!“

“This past weekend we held out anniversary dinner. We chose Simply Gourmet for catering and it was amazing. They have a large selection to choose from. All guest complimented the food. We also got a cake, fruit tart and cake pops for dessert and they were all incredible. I highly recommend them for any catering needs.“
