Havre is known for many things: agriculture, outdoor recreation, and its fascinating underground tour, just to name a few. But did you know it's also one of the best places in Montana for cupcakes? Henny Penny Cupcakes is a beloved local business -- and they actually sell far more than just dessert.
You'll find Henny Penny Cupcakes on 4th Avenue in downtown Havre.
It's easy to drive right by this building without knowing what lies inside (but please don't do that).
It all started when owner Penny Velk's daughter suggested she start selling the cupcakes she was so good at baking.
Health codes prevented Penny from selling cupcakes made at home, so she started baking them in commercial kitchens. When that got to be too much of a hassle, she decided to get a bakery of her own.
The cupcakes here are true works of art, and they taste as delicious as they look.
Good luck eating just one.
The bakery has been the recipient of several awards, including TripAdvisor's award for Best Desserts in Havre.
Penny never expected her bakery to become so popular, but when you're this good at what you do, it's inevitable.
Best of all, it's not only cupcakes you'll find on the menu here.
Order a made from scratch soup, sandwich or salad from the lunch menu. Everything is delicious.
The lunch menu isn't large, but we all know quality matters more than quantity.
And this, fellow Montanans, is definitely quality.
Order a dozen cupcakes or a beautiful custom-made cake from Henny Penny for your next special event.
After such a strange year of uncertainty, we've certainly got a lot to celebrate now.
