Grandma bake shoppe is the best!!!

I love fruitcake. As a child I looked forward to Christmas for this special treat. I love the fruit cakes from Grandmas bake shop , I think they are the best on the market. My favorite is the amaretto. When someone tells me they don’t like fruit cake, I know they are shopping in the wrong place.

The Best Fruitcakes You'll Find

I've been buying fruitcakes from Grandma's Bake Shoppe for years. They make the best fruitcakes I have ever eaten, and they have a wide variety to choose from. I highly recommend them to everyone who loves mouthwatering fruitcakes. They're simply the BEST! Go to their website and order one. You'll be glad you did.

small portion size, the rest is good

i was surprised by how small the 12oz sampler cakes were when they arrived. they're great for gifting/tasting, but read the size descriptions carefully before ordering, especially if you feed a lot of people.
also, labeling on the sampler could be clearer. it's hard to tell which cake is which without a guide

I found what I was looking to purchase…

I found what I was looking to purchase on the website and was able to easily make my purchase. I am sorry that the company is closing. The fruitcake is some of the best and it will be a shame to not be able to purchase more in the future.

I love Grandma's

I love Grandma's. My favorite is the date nut bread but I also like the fruitcake, including the different varieties. The only think I have not liked was the red velvet cookies. I was expecting soft, not hard. Are you going out of business or just closing the retail store?

Words cannot express my gratitude to Grandmas Bake Shoppe

Great service, speedy shipping, wonderful staff, and on top of that, they have a totally awesome fruitcake. The sad part is, I’ve read that they will be closing their bakery. For 20 years I use to drive to Beatrice 2-3 times a year and buy some of their “second to none” products. Closing their doors not only leaves an empty spot in the fridge and pantry, but also an empty spot in my heart. Good luck to all the staff…..hold your heads high, because you most definitely have made a tremendous impact on many of us. Love you, mean it, Bill
