There's no better pick-me-up than treating yourself on a trip to a delicious bakery, especially a local staple crafting and baking up unique bites and traditional classics alike. Whether you're craving a sweet treat or want to pick up some freshly-made bread, there are plenty of great bakeries around dishing out cakes, cookies, and any delectable delight you could hope for.
According to a list compiled by Taste of Home, the best bakery in all of Washington is Sluys Poulsbo Bakery, a popular Kitsap County establishment that makes incredible offerings from scratch, including natural grain, rye and sourdough breads as well as donuts, pastries and specialty desserts. Sluys Poulsbo Bakery is located at 18924 Front Street NE in Poulsbo.
Here's what Taste of Home had to say about the top bakery in all of Washington:
"This nomination for best baker came from Elizabeth Bramkamp of Gig Harbor, Washington, and we agree. Sluys Poulsbo Bakery has been family-run since the early 1960s, making all of their breads and pastries in small batches by hand. Their intriguing breads include Norwegian Black and Cardamom Orange. They also hold a doughnut-eating contest — the doughnut dubbed 'King Olaf' weighs three pounds!"
