A small town bakery that’s nationally known seems unlikely, but Sugaree’s Bakery in New Albany proves that it is possible. The bakeshop churns out all sorts of sweets, but it’s the layer cakes the customers can’t seem to get enough of. They’re so good, in fact, the bakery ships them all over the country. Take a look:
Sugaree’s Bakery is located in downtown New Albany. It shouldn’t be hard to miss; just keep your eyes peeled for the sign…and a line of people waiting outside.
The bakery has come a long way from its humble beginnings as a home-based bakeshop. In 1997, Sugaree’s Bakery officially opened and began churning out a variety of sweets, including its now-famous layer cakes.
But it’s no mistake that the cakes are such a hit. Since opening, the small-batch bakery "has been focusing on depth of flavor with its classic southern layer cakes."
And the bakery has definitely succeeded. Ask anyone who’s tried the cake, and they’ll tell you they’re some of the "richest, moistest homemade cakes available."
It’s not just customers that praise the cakes, though. Over the years Sugaree’s Bakery has appeared in a variety of publications, including Oprah Magazine, Southern Living, and New York Times.
The bakery’s biggest seller, the layer cakes account for 90% of Sugaree’s business!
Sure to satisfy any sweet tooth, the cakes come in a variety of flavors. Not sure which to choose? The caramel, strawberry, and rainbow cake are among the most popular.
Chocolate, coconut, and red velvet are just a few other flavor options.
Luckily, you don’t have to live near New Albany to sink your teeth into one of the famous cakes, since they can be shipped all over the country.
In addition to choosing a flavor, you can choose to order either a whole or half cake. Of course, you’ll probably regret it if you don’t get the whole.
But it's not just cakes you can order. Sugaree's Bakery ships pies, pound cake, and gift baskets packed with baked goods.
So, are you ready to see (or taste) why this small town bakery has such a BIG reputation?
