The Texas Bakery In The Middle Of Nowhere That’s One Of The Best On Earth
When we think of the tiny town of West, Texas, with a population of just under 3,000, the first thing that usually comes to mind is Czech Stop, the famous gas station that serves authentic kolaches. All the hype has caused a similar place to get completely overlooked – Slovacek’s. It’s a rest stop/meat market/gift shop with a bakery that will send your taste buds straight to heaven, yet somehow, hardly anyone seems to know about it. Keep scrolling to feast your eyes on some of the most delicious muffins, cakes, cookies, fudge, and other sweet treats in the state.
Slovacek's is known primarily for their specialty sausage, but the store also has a full-blown BBQ restaurant, a unique selection of beers, a gift shop, and, of course, a bakery with delicious treats you can't find anywhere else.
From traditional Czech kolaches to muffins with just the right amount of sugar sprinkled on top, everything is freshly made each day and tastes like it came straight out of your grandma's kitchen. If this picture doesn't have you salivating, I don't know what will!
In addition to pastries, the bakery also boasts homemade fudge in the following flavors: chocolate, chocolate pecan, cookies & cream, Butterfinger, Heath, peanut butter, peanut butter chocolate, orange cream, mint chocolate, and pecan praline - yum!
There is also a self-serve frozen yogurt bar featuring eight constantly-rotating flavors and a topping bar with candy, nuts, seasonal fruits, and more. So many ways to satisfy your sweet tooth at Slovacek's!
As if everything previously listed wasn't enough, they also offer entire cakes! If you live nearby and have a special occasion coming up, look no further - they've got you covered.
So next time you're road tripping and pass through the tiny town of West, keep your eyes peeled (or you just might miss it!) for Slovacek's. Your taste buds and stomach will definitely be thanking you.
