So you can join us in this delicious pursuit of carb-based excellence, we’ve put together a list of the very top bakery businesses in and around Fort Smith, AR. Have fun getting your croissant on!
1. Moreno’s Bakery
Make North Greenwood Avenue your first stop if you are in the mood for pan dulce, because Moreno’s really do make the best in town! They also make a really delicious tres leches cake, wonderful tamales and some really amazing cakes. We think Moreno’s is a great all-rounder. Visiting them is an easy win if you are in the mood for some great quality and freshly prepared Mexican treats.
2. Flowers
Located on Grand Avenue, Flowers is the go-to bakery when you want to indulge without spending the earth. Their baked goods are incredibly good value and they have a huge range on offer. There are the usual cakes and breads, but also cookies, pies, and other tasty items which you will find irresistible when you see the wonderful counter display! The team is really helpful and happy to try and accommodate special requests wherever they possibly can.
3. Pasteleria Don Jose
It’s hard to choose the best item on the menu in this friendly pasteleria. The flan is probably the hero item, but it’s a tough call when they make such amazing doughnuts and sweet bread. This is very much a locals favorite, frequented by those in the know – so a hidden gem over on Midland Boulevard. This is a really beautifully kept store, always clean and tidy and a pleasure to visit.
4. Harps Bakery
Harps is located on South 74th Street and has a great delivery deli service as well as wonderful homemade baked goods. This is the place to visit for wonderful French places as well as heavenly fresh-made sandwiches. They also make a range of celebration cakes if you have an important event coming up that really needs a special touch.
5. Confectionately Yours
As you have no doubt guessed from the name of this bakery, their sweets selection is absolutely on point. They really taste as good as they look, and the team put a huge effort into making all of their cakes and sweets look completely off the charts. They make a delicious cupcake, but if you want something that is completely unforgettable then try their macarons. They have the perfect texture, the right amount of filling and come in a range of beautiful flavors.
