Take Home The Old World Handmade Desserts From Dagmar’s Delectables In Rio Rancho, New Mexico

Dining in New Mexico often comes with a few assumptions: your meal will almost certainly feature that fiery, pungent heat from chilis and some of our favorite ingredients from Mexican, American, and Indigenous cuisines. It’s why it’s a rare treat to find a restaurant that features the hearty and far more subtle flavors of German cuisine.

We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing. While we’re continuing to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, we don’t expect or encourage you to go check them out immediately. We believe that supporting local attractions is important now more than ever and we hope our articles inspire your future adventures! And on that note, please nominate your favorite local business that could use some love right now: https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/nominate/

The location is hidden away in a strip mall but once you find it, you'll always want to stop back for more.
Step inside and you'll be met with a warm environment and the heavenly smells of desserts, schnitzel, rouladen, and more.

Rows of sweets like handmade strudel, cinnamon rolls, and macaroon cookies line the counter. In fact, the bakery offers dozens of strudel flavor options, including some with green chiles! That's most likely why this location is also known as Dagmar's Strudel House.
Meanwhile, black forest cake, cheesecake, and kuchen simply beg to be taken home.

The sweets aren't the only thing Dagmar's specializes in. You can take home a variety of freshly baked breads: rye, brotchen, and even hefty soft pretzels.
