8 Best Bakeries near Staunton

“10 out of 10 the best pastries!!! Came across this business on FB a few days before a field trip to Staunton, VA for my daughter. Field trip day was Thursday and Giancarlo is only open for retail hours on Friday’s and Saturday’s. I was so bummed, but I sent a message to see if they would let me make a special order for Thursday pick up, and they did!!! We ordered three tarts. A chocolate raspberry, a chocolate espresso and a lemon. AMAZING!!! Giancarlo uses the most delicious chocolate I have ever tasted! And the lemon was the perfect balance of sweet and tangy. This bakery is a MUST visit!“

“We ordered 150 mini cupcakes for my MIL's 90th bday party and they were a HIT!!! Everyone raved at the flavor combinations. No one could agree on their favorite: the red velvet, the mint chocolate, the raspberry, the cookies n cream, lemon, and more! What people loved most is that the icing wasn't too sweet so people could try multiple flavors. We picked up friday for a the saturday party and they were fresh and delicious. Highly recommend!“

“I ordered a birthday cake and some gluten-free cupcakes from Magdalena’s. Alba was so helpful in suggesting options for the cake, especially since I wanted a photo added to the top. The icing was amazing, the cake tasty and moist, and the mousse filling divine. Everyone at the party complimented me on how good it was. My GF intolerant guests loved the cupcakes. Highly recommend.“

“I bought several pastries and drip coffees. They were all excellent! Right from the start, the exquisitely unsweetened Pain au Chocolat proved these people are serious about what they do. The Danish are beyond what this poor little soul can describe. HIGHLY recommend!“

“Taylor is very nice. Professional.“

“Excellent First visit this week, I loved everything I got. Banana bread is particularly good as is the sourdough“

“Pumpkin Delights: Spoiler alert, these are my favorite seasonal snack from Little Debbie. They’re soft, chewy, sweet, and full of delicious pumpkin flavor (along with hints of cinnamon/spice). Basically, they are a pumpkin flavored cookie. Thankfully the “spice” flavor is muted and not in your face or burning (I prefer less spice and more of a pumpkin pie flavor to my pumpkin treats). The orange gel used for the eyes and mouth had just a hint of pumpkin flavor, but it’s more for decoration/aesthetics. Some of the cookies were done very well with the eyes and mouth looking just like on the box, but a few looked pretty bad (too scary to show). They pair great with a cup of pumpkin spice coffee or be like the Doughboy and take these cookies up a notch by adding cream cheese frosting to them. Not a frosting person? They also pair nicely with a scoop of pumpkin ice cream to create your own seasonal Pizookie.
