Kruta Bakery

Reviewed By hasamearm69 - Collinsville, United States

I have lived near the bakery my entire life. They bake fresh every morning and open at 6 am sharp. If you want the goodies, get there early. They do sell out of things based on the high demand. I have never had a bad item from here. I do have my own favorites like Paradise Rolls and the Cream Horns.
