The Best Little Bakeshop In America Is Right Here In Minnesota

Minnesota has dozens of great bakeries scattered all across the state. It doesn’t take much traveling to find just what you’re looking for, whether it’s an expertly baked bread or a decadent donut. And don’t think you have to stick to the Twin Cities to find great baked goods, either. There are plenty of bakeshops to sample in smaller towns as well. One of the best? Rush City Bakery, a 114-year-old bakery located in the heart of small-town Minnesota. Take a look:

Rush City Bakery has been around since 1903, making it 114 years old. In a town as small as Rush City - just over 3,000 people live there - that's pretty impressive.

In all those years, the little bakeshop has drawn a loyal customer base. Many gather in their cozy dining area to try out the delicious goods on hand.

And there are plenty of choices.

From cookies to donuts to bars and breads, this bakery will satisfy any palate.

If you're a donut fan, Rush City Bakery has perfected the art over the past century. Classic donuts, cinnamon rolls, and sweet rolls are on the menu here.

Alongside your old favorites, you'll find more unique and decadent options, like these incredible Baileys cupcakes.

Don't forget to pick up some bread while you're here, too. You can get a loaf bread or a truly special artisan bread to enjoy.

Aside from great-tasting baked goods, this shop also excels at decoration. No matter the season, you're bound to find something with a special flair.

That goes double for their phenomenal cakes. Rush City Bakery makes intricately decorated cakes in just about any theme imaginable. Of course, they make an incredible wedding cake, too.

Best of all, all of their baked goods are made 100% from scratch with locally sourced ingredients.

Rush City Bakery is located at 450 South Eliot Avenue in Rush City.
