Enjoy Some of the Best From-Scratch Pastries Ever From Wilder BakeShop in New Mexico

Think back to your childhood days when your mother, grandmother, or perhaps some other family member was baking cookies, a cake, or other delectable treats. Just remembering the smell in the air will take you back in time. And the taste of desserts made from scratch is simply out of this world! While many of us have family members who still bake at home, you may want to pick a fresh-baked treat up at a bakery like Wilder BakeShop in Chama, New Mexico instead. Its from-scratch pastries have made this a local favorite.

As someone who has a sweet tooth, I love bakeries and pastry shops. As long as something is homemade, it quickly becomes my favorite treat! If you like sweets like me and find yourself in the village of Chama in northern New Mexico, you must make a stop at the incredibly charming Wilder BakeShop. In fact, you'll most likely smell some delicious scents wafting through the streets of Chama before you step foot inside.

Wilder BakeShop is owned and operated by talented self-taught baker Jazzmyn Cramer. It was almost a lifelong dream of hers to open up her own European-style patisserie and cafe and, well, she succeeded! She also makes it a point to procure ethically sourced ingredients for the pastries she makes.

Everything is made from scratch which makes all the difference in quality and taste. Whether it's flaky, buttery croissants, fruit-filled galettes, or perhaps a divine lemon cake with lemon buttercream, whatever you end up trying will have you come back for more.

Of course, coffee is always an option here as well. A steaming hot vanilla latte is a great way to accompany a treat like a shortbread bar or a cream tart.

When you visit this incredible patisserie in Chama and try one of the from-scratch baked goods, you'll want to share it with friends. I urge you to take a few things back home with you to share.

Wilder BakeShop is located at 2248 NM-17 in Chama, New Mexico. You can check out specials or the food menu on the Wilder BakeShop website and follow its Facebook page for updates.
