Baker's Nook

Pleasantly surprised by this little spot! They caught my attention as they post a fair amount of their goodies on the Saline Eats group page.

It's a little off the beaten path, so a hidden gem! Seems like they started selling baking supplies (which they still sell!) but now sell baked goodies.

I stopped in on a Saturday morning and was surprised that there was a line and that they had sold out of a few things, but I still had:
*Biscuit Breakfast Sandwich - Got this one for the hubby & he said it was good!
*Sausage Egg and Cheese Bagel Bomb - DELISH. Wow, just perfectly seasoned and perfectly baked. There was not a soggy bit in sight even though I'd imagine something like this could get soggy really easily. It's basically like a robust stuffed bagel. They have three different types so I'll have to come back to try the other two.

They had a good assortment of doughnuts but I didn't try any.

Ambience here is no frills and you still feel like you're in the 70's/80's but it's kinda charming that way -- like the way it is when you walk into Benny's Bakery!

I am delighted to write a glowing review for Baker's Nook, the incredible team who baked our wedding cake and provided exceptional services. From the very beginning, we were impressed with their professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to making our special day even more memorable.

The team at Baker's Nook demonstrated remarkable customer service throughout the entire process. From the initial consultation to the final delivery, they were attentive, responsive, and accommodating. They took the time to listen to our preferences, understand our vision, and offered valuable suggestions based on their extensive experience. They made us feel confident and assured that our wedding cake was in the hands of true professionals.

Furthermore, the bakery's punctuality and reliability were exemplary. They delivered our cake on time, ensuring it arrived in perfect condition and was set up beautifully at the venue. We were impressed by their attention to detail and the care they took in handling the cake, ensuring it looked flawless when presented to our guests.

Thank you once again to the talented team at Baker's Nook for creating a magnificent wedding cake and providing outstanding service. You played a significant role in making our wedding day truly unforgettable.

I was drawn to this fine establishment for the maple bacon donuts. I ordered 2 maple bacon, 2 Samoa (like the Girl Scout cookie), 1 filled with cookie dough (white top), 1 peanut butter filled (chocolate topped with nuts).

The donuts were average. They were fresh and soft but didn't wow me.

FAVORITES
- Peanut butter filled donut (it was like a whipped peanut butter cream frosting)
- Cookie dough filled donut

NOTABLE
- Samoa was interesting. Tasted very much like the Girl Scout cookie. It had coconut, caramel and was drizzled with chocolate. It was a special donut so not a normal selection.

NOT SPECIAL
- Maple bacon donut was not great. It could use more maple. It tasted more like a frosted donut with bacon. This was a premium priced donut, and the inspiration for my visit.

HISTORY
This place has been in business for a long time. They used to just be a bakers shop and then they added a bakery to the shop.

Excellent strawberry cheesecake and blueberry Bundt cake!! Thank you for you warm and professional service. We'll be back!!

Had to get a cake for my husband's 40th birthday and they did great! It was a tombstone with Lordy Lordy look who's 40 on it! LOL They will be seeing me again for other special occasions.

Baker's Nook is a gem in Saline. Delicious donuts, and their lunches that change often, are delicious. A must have is the cream of broccoli soup.
If you need a coffee fix, ask Megan to make it for you. She is so sweet, and really knows what tastes good.

We ordered our wedding cake here. Very professional and patient with us during the ordering and cake tasting process. Very reasonable pricing. Cake was delicious and I was able to order a larger cake with multiple flavors, so my guests could enjoy larger pieces and have options. Cake delivery was on time and set up early. Would definitely recommend!

Anything you could possibly want or need to bake, decorate, present or store your baked items! Owner is so nice and personable. Wonderful daily food items and great donuts too. Love this place!

Absolutely amazing staff! Store was very clean and manger was very friendly! Thank you will be coming back for more goodies

I had wandered in there to look at all the cookie cutters a few years ago. Recently, I was looking for pan liners for mini loaves. They didn't have them in stock, but the lady who helped me was very kind to go look in the back, in case they had any there.

The answer was no, but she said they'd be back in stock within a few days. She handed me a business card and suggested that I go to the website to see if they were back in stock before I came back to the store. A website with up-to-date inventory info? Fabulous! These people are very organized.

While I was there, I looked around at all the fancy cake decorating supplies. I found many colorful cupcake liners, candy decorations made from frosting, candles of all kinds -- including candles that spell out a person't name with individual letters -- candy making supplies, frosting and tons of decorating tips for pastry bags, wedding cake toppers, and exotic things like edible jewels! (See my photos.)

While I usually make healthy, whole-grain muffins of all kinds, and there might be a few fun things in this store for me, mainly this store is for the serious cake decorating hobbyist or professional pastry chef.
