    The best bakery on Cedar Key. Wedding cakes are amazing. Gluten free can be accommodated.

    I've only had a couple of items from the bakery, but both were simply outstanding!!…read more I've had the croissant drizzled w/ chocolate a couple of times. If that were the only item available, they'd have a customer for life in me. I love that i can taste all of the elements without any being out of balance. This is so rare in food these days, particularly in pastries 'n' such. I also had a chocolate muffin. Again, utterly delightful; abundant chocolate flavor and appropriately sweet without being gaudy. YUM!! Staff is so very nice and friendly. They find time for gentle yack with us visiting yankees. Wunnerful place! DO pay them a visit.

    I cannot describe how fabulous this bakery truly is! We were out this morning fishing and decided…read moreto walk around when we then found a little bit of heaven , just WoW! Cedar Key island Bakery is a family owned bakery where most if not all of their recipes come from previous generations ! In the early 2000's they opened in Nashville and the bakery grew very big but the family wanted to travel the country. After some time they decided to settle in Cedar Key ! Everyone who walks in to the bakery will be greeted with smiles and kindness! On Thursday's it's key lime pie day and you must go early! As the day goes on the delicious baked goods can disappear fast. The fantastic chocolate cake I've heard is a secret recipe that's been in the family for many, many years I can only imagine. It is so moist and heavenly, not too sweet and just the right flavor, texture and richness we had to go back in and grab a second to take back home! There is even ice cream if you'd like to have some on top, just yum! I picked up a caramel apple donut that was out of this world stuffed to the brim with apples so fresh and incredible. I also got a peanut butter and jelly donut that most definitely had real peanut butter and it is outrageously delicious! The chocolate covered donut was simply divine. The chocolate on top is thick and tastes almost a bit like ganache. I will be getting these again and trying others when we come back as the Cedar Key Bakery is going to be our go to when visiting. I almost forgot about my maple bacon donut that I also really liked. I would probably add more bacon but maybe that's me because it still is another delicious option. Everything in this bakery is wonderful and I can promise that you will love it! The atmosphere itself is amazing, you just have to walk in and see. It almost feels like an old country store but instead you find wonderful fresh baked goods and ice cream ! What more can anyone ask for. We will be back shortly! 315 2nd Street, Cedar Key, FL, USA (352)325-3750 Info@ckibakery.com Hours: Opening hours Saturday 7:30AM-7PM Sunday Closed Monday Closed Tuesday Closed Wednesday 7:30AM-2PM Thursday 7:30AM-7PM Friday 7:30AM-7PM

    I have been here many times and let me tell you she makes some of the best Cupcakes around...she…read moresells a variety of delicious flavors that make you want to come back and try another...as soon as you arrive you are greeted and taken care of right away, fast service and your on your way..her shop is just adorable and so homey inside and very welcoming..you have to check out her Cakes, they are a work of art..if you are on the Crystal River area, you must stop in!

    I actually found out about Queen of Cakes from an ad on Facebook. What intrigued me the most was…read morethat she offers Keto baked goods. Great for those people like my husband and I watching their carbohydrate intake. My husband who loves sweets had to give them up when he became a severe diabetic and misses them so much. With Queen of Cakes keto baked items he can have an occassional treat without raising his blood sugar significantly. Queen of Cakes also offers delicious regular baked items plus beautifully decorated cakes for special occasions. She also bakes savory items such as biscuits, rolls, mini pizzas, take and bake pizza dough plus pepperoni pizza rolls. Queen of Cakes is a small business but the owner/ baker bakes an impressive amount and variety of baked goods. Beautifully baked and decorated there's something for everybody in her bakery cases. I love the fact that she sells pieces of cake along with her numerous cupcakes. Whenever I go my husband warns me don't overspend because quite frankly everything in her bakery just calls out to me! I do hope you will try our hidden gem of a bakery here in Crystal River and support a small business whose owner is wonderful and will do anything to make her customers happy!

    I love this place it is unique ot looks like a house and it's a restaurant for breakfast and lunch…read more You seat in wooden dinning tables à lot of things made by hand and it is a beautiful cozy place We did not eat here.

    first off, the food is fantastic. my favorite is the tomato pie paired with tomato basil soup…read more That combination alone keeps me coming back. Their teas are tasty, some are more to my taste than others. our favorite is the apricot. Each person gets a delicate china teacup and a ceramic pot full of tea, making drinking it a unique experience in this day of ceramic mugs or paper cups. Next, the atmosphere is cozy. Individual, unique tables paired with different chairs, so a guest wanting a hard chair can have one while another might like a more cushioned chair. Antique collars and purses hang from the ceiling. China teapots and cups decorate the shelves along the walls. Lace curtains hang in the windows. no canned music. Do you need a unique gift? There are various tissue holders - some shaped like birdhouses, others like a teapot for sale. or cushions, or soaps. As you wait for your food, wandering around or just looking around is a feast for the eyes. Hat racks full of hats and costumes adorn nooks and are for wearing to the afternoon teas. We have not done that yet, still enjoying the lunch visits. I would recommend making a reservation though. the tea room is not spacious, and we have seen walk ins turned away for lack of room. but for us, the highlight is the interaction with the owner. NOT for the snooty or stuffy customer. If you get offended when the owner jokes with you as he takes your order, PLEASE don't come here. Your attitude embarrasses us all. His demeanor is like that gruff old man who accepts that he has to repeat the specials, but who can't resist chiding you about it. All the staff is wonderful, but he stands out with his banter. For a lunch, or just tea and a scone, definitely try Sweeties.
