I know everybody is cutting back on expenses, but when you sacrifice taste for money, you might as well give it up. The Swedish horns might as well not have any frosting, because the streaks of sugar frosting just doesn't do it for me. You mainly taste the dough. What a shame, Through the years, I've always bought this product, one of the sweets, I could not resist, now it's just not worth the price. read more

I recently purchased a multi variety pak of Svenhard's pastries at Sam's Club. Besides a reduction of the icing that use to generiously cover the pastry, it was very dry. I use to have good memories of Svenhard's pastries growing up, unfortunately this will be the last box I buy. read more

Yet another altered ingredient line up for what was once my favorite store bought pastry. Svenhards raisin snails have more sugar, cheaper ingredients and have become dry. The original icing is different too. Now I will cross your products off my list too. Aren't the companies and subsidies making enough $$? Goodbye Svenhards read more

What the hell is going on with this bakery, they are charging almost 1.5 times as much for the multi-pack of pastries and the pastries themselves are twice as small, it is a complete rip off. There is zero reason for them to down size the product , consumer prices for Flour, Eggs, etc are dropping back to normal. This is all about greed. and it is pure garbage. I am beyond ticked off. These companies screwing over people. read more

I grew up eating these danishes. My mom would put a pat of butter on the and heat them up in the oven just for a bit. They've changed, the danish itself is smaller and there's little to no icing on them. At the end of the day I was eating danish bread, with my pat of butter. I'm so disappointed because these have been my go to sweet treat pretty much all my life (I'm double nickel), so I know these very well. I understand the business has had some trouble but at this rate they should just stop making these because it's an insult and disappointment to the consumer. Not sure how the other snacks are just didn't want to be bothered after this. read more

I purchased a Svenhards Cheese Horn and when I bit into it, there was something hard in the Center. I made a complaint on their website, but have not heard back from anyone. In case they monitor Yelp, here is the photo of the item after I took a Bite........ This is unsat, if you take the complaint you should make the time to notify the customer of what you are going to do to resolve the issue. read more

I can't believe how bad it is from the Bear claws to all the other varieties- it's reduced in size and the price has gone up - and I know the way it use to be because I ate it for years but not anymore! read more

I love the raisin rolls but they are very difficult to find. The packages of just raisin are almost none existent. Why is that ?

Had the privilege of tasting a Cinnamon Horn today and it was delicious! Suggestion for better quality would be to make it with more natural ingredients. read more

I worked for Ronnie Svenhard in the 1970's.I was a route salesman in Oakland.The product line we called raisin snails/bear claws/butterhorns were the best.Just like a small bake shop.Not any more these are fruit rolls with no favor.Our products were without preserving added. Ronnie Svenhard would not put this product on the market. Mike read more

I didn't really want to air this in public but I cannot access your website. Long-time customer, love your Breakfast claws but they are priced at a point where they are a luxury item and we don't buy them too often anymore. I bought a package of Breakfast Claws about Jan16 from Vons in N. Fresno, opened them up the following morning and shared them with the family and we were totally disappointed. They were hard, dry, almost stale tasting. I have 1/2 the package left that nobody will eat. read more

Svenhard's Swedish Bakery - Stale hard dry overcooked - Bakeries Near Me - Exeter, California

I worked for this company for 19 years and have to say that when I first started out at Svenhards it was a very good job. As the years went by and Rony and Marianne started getting older and they let the kids and David Kunkel take over operations you could start to see the company deteriorate. Somehow they became an entity of Franz Baking and were loaned money that they mysteriously couldn't repay. Shocking since they sold the land and Bakery in Oakland for a small fortune. You could start to see the writing on the wall. They also owned property in Exeter Ca with a larger bakery on it. They sold and left Oakland and moved to Exeter. The product never was or will be the same from that point forward. During this time with the bounty of money they got for the Oakland property they jumped in bed with Franz who allegedly lent Svenhards 5.2 million dollars to bring that shithole bakery in Exeter up to speed. This never happened. A few years later Svenhards under David Kunkels leadership filed for Bankruptcy. It didn't help that Dave's nephew was trying to get laid by the staff, male and female employees and had been hit with several sexual harassment lawsuits. Prior to this they tried to save the sinking ship by getting rid of all the route drivers who actual kept these criminals in business. They put Svenhards on Bimbo trucks eliminating the route side of their business. Not too long after with very low overhead which seems almost impossible to fuck up, came bankruptcy. Leave it to Kunkel to screw up a wet dream! Then when the shceisters Franz came in and paid off the outstanding 5 million dollar loan and claimed Svenhards for merely pennies on the dollar and screwing a lot of other businesses out of money owed, including SEVERANCE owed to the senior Rt drivers they screwed over a year earlier. As far as I'm concerned Franz should be on the hook for everything owed since they are still pushing that garbage product out to the public. Karma is a bitch and I can't wait until it is served to these criminals! read more

I have been Diusappointed in the overall Quality of Svenhards Pastries Since they were taken oiver by Central Calif Baking. There is Very Little to no Icing ion any of the Products anymore. I Look Each time i go to the market & in the last 3 months have only found 1 Package Of Cinnamon Rolls With Sufficient Icing. Most Weeks The Pastries are Dry as a Bone & many With No Visible Icing...so the Quality needs to be Improved Badly. read more

I would give the company an A++++++ if they still would make the Danish rolls NOT BURNT** I probably use at least a pack every week an a half & sometimes more! They used to be SO CONSISTANT with the size's of the rolls & they were NEVER BURNT, but now days it seems they must like *BURNT* as they are so BROWN & MUCH SMALLER!!! I've been buying these rolls for 20+ years & am just plain disappointed that they don't seem to try to make them like the ole days! Course *what's new* with the ole days going away on EVERYTHING!! Stuff is just plain GARBAGE out there! I'll still buy these unless I see some others that are a nice size & not burnt!! Marilyn in Santa Rosa, CA read more

Used to prefer them over other pastries but I now see why they went bankrupt. Totally unhappy with them. They have made their products much smaller and with less filling and glazing talk bout cheap move. 3 times I purchased their pastries from my grocery store only to find them dry and stale and with very little filling or glaze covering . Their lack of honesty caught up with them , and now they will get away with screwing their suppliers by filing bankruptcy. Go figure read more

Bought a pack of 6 Svenhards cinnamon rolls at Stater Borders. 3 of them had a center that was rock hard. At first I thought somebody had lost a tooth in the dough. I tried calling CCBC, the makers of this product, and emailing several times, no answer. When I did finally get through to somebody, they assured me they would be getting back to me so I could send them pictures. They also promised me a coupon or refund. Never heard back. I have also heard they are in financial trouble. Needless to say, avoid this brand. This company does not stand behind their product. I don't even want to imagine what could happen if a small child got a hold of these and chocked on this material. I will be reporting this to the authorities as well. read more

Such a shame the great bakery Svenhard's from Oakland CA moved a few years ago to the Central Valley Exeter CA. Their product is not the same. They have filled for bankruptcy and have a few sex worker suits against them. Most of their former items have changed, not much cinnamon or raisins in the small snails. Forget the nice bear claws, no almonds on top and very little filling. The first product listed is SUGAR, then later corn syrup and artificial flavors and colors. Seems like just before they left the Oakland plant they stopped using corn syrup and many other things not good for you. They had 4 treats per pack now down to 3 small items. One of the best things Svenhard's had many years ago was their popular apple strudel, no longer available or made. Let's hope they can go back and bring back the old recipes we all liked in the past. Raise the prices If they have to. They fired all the drivers they had and have the Bimbo Bread drivers deliver now. read more
