It’s pretty common knowledge that many Mississippi gas stations double as great eateries. But did you know there’s a gas station in the Magnolia State that includes an incredible bakery? Well, there is, and you (along with your sweet tooth) will definitely want to visit. Take a look:
This is Buck’s One Stop. It’s tucked away in the tiny town of Calhoun City.
Even though it looks like a typical gas station, it’s anything but…and that’s because it’s home to the most delicious bakery that’s known for its cakes and pies.
Step inside, and in addition to the usual variety of gas station merchandise, you’ll notice a cooler filled to the brim with cakes and pies – all of which are made on-site.
The talent behind the baked goods, Nanny and Poppa (as they’re known by regulars), get to the bakery early each day to begin work on their sweet treats.
Made on-site daily, the cakes and pies couldn’t be any fresher. But freshness isn’t all the bakery has going for it.
The varied selection is also sure to please. Both the cakes and pies are available in an assortment of flavors.
The cakes come in all sorts of flavors, each just as delicious as the next. However, as far as popularity goes, the caramel cake takes the cake. (Sorry, I couldn’t help myself.)
In fact, several diners have referred to it as "the best caramel cake in the world."
If you’re more of a pie person, you’ll be just as pleased, but making a decision won’t be any easier.
In addition to classic pies, like coconut and chocolate, the bakery makes fried pies.
The popular southern dessert features a crispy crust and fruit filling, which in this case is either apple or peach. (Told you making a decision wouldn’t be as easy as pie.)
Buck’s One Stop is located at 601 N Main St., Calhoun City, MS 38916. For more information, call (662) 628-6822 or visit the gas station’s Facebook page.
