Lindstrom Bakery

Very tasty donuts, we got 4 things for less than $ 3 so it was a good bargain and everything was great. Ate in the attached gathering place which was very nice. Tons of selection and no bad choices that I’ve come across. Had cookies while here a few years back and they were great too!

This place is a scene out of the FX series Fargo, I swear.
We got:
3 donut holes.
Apple crispy
Cinnamon sugar cake donut
I think it was like three bucks. Dang. And it was good. You could just taste the Swedes in every bite.
You can have your cardamom spiced pimento berry almond butter gluten free $ 12 doughnut. I’ll take these, simple, classic and fresh as hell.
Get the apple crispy.

This place is a hidden gem!
Great doughnuts, apparently fried in lard.
Like the whole town, it has Swedish sort of ‘motif.‘
The place isn’t much to look at, but the lady was friendly, and my doughnuts were only seventy cents.

I had driven by a handful of times and I finally stopped in. A very old fashion place that hasn’t changed much in the past 20yrs from the looks of things. They have some bulk spices and food in the front + some organic items. There is a large cast of cookies, all sorts of variety. There is a lot of bread and toast in the center. I was very tempted by some Rye. The donuts are abundant and looked pretty good. So… they have a lot of items to pick from… almost overwhelming at times. I chose a HUGE molasses cookie shaped like a bear. Nice flavor in this cookie and not overly sweet.
They lady working was pretty friendly and gladly listed off all the prices for items in the shop. I would stop back to try more baked goodies. You just don’t find this type of bakery in every town.
I’m sure that most of the items aren’t that healthy (transfat, bleached flour, etc) but you are treating yourself. Just don’t do it every day.

Small bakery and nothing really European about it. Cookies were overly cooked and didn’t even taste good.

I was in the area for business and was attracted to the shop because it said that it was home of the Swedish donut — what is a Swedish donut was the question that I asked myself. Well, I stopped in on an early cold morning and picked up a glazed Swedish donut. For a mere $ 0.70 per donut, the Swedish donut is effectively a «O» shaped buttermilk donut with a light glaze on top. You can also get in with plain, cinnamon sugar, and chocolate topped. It is a tasty donut. If you have a good glazed buttermilk donut in your area, then you have your very own Swedish donut! If you are in the area, this is a good place to stop.
They had lots of homemade breads, cakes, cookies, and candies. They also sell flours, spices, etc. The counter person was quite friendly!]
That’s a-​ok in my book. :)

I cannot speak of the baked goods in this shop because after selecting over $ 7 worth of baked goods the cashier told me they don’t accept debit cards. I whittled down my purchase hoping that the four dollars I had in cash would do. Ironically it totalled $ 4.20 and the cashier didn’t offer to make up the .20 cents, instead directing me to an ATM down the street at a bar. After walking to the bar I found that it wasn’t open early in the morning and the ATM was locked up inside. I thought it very unfriendly of the cashier not to make some kind of concession (I did have some change but not enough for the .20 cents…) so they can chalk up this lost sale and lost customer to education. Me — I learned they don’t take debit cards. Them — hopefully they’ll learn that the majority of their customers do use debit cards.
This is a place I drive by on the way up to our cabin. I expect to be driving by it every single time now without stopping. By the way, I discovered the wonderful bakery at Marketplace Grocery in St. Croix Falls which I can now highly recommend.

This is a quaint local bakery with breads, cakes, cookies, and donuts. I only sampled their baked goods because they use shortening, and I’m a trans-​fat phobe. I’d love to see them switch to non-​hydrogenated oil. Their overly sweet donuts and cinnamon rolls were decent, but I’ve definitely had better.
I give them an extra star for their excellent organic pantry, full of spices, grains, and other healthier options for the home baker. It’s amost schizophrenic, the sugary trans-​fat filled donuts on one side and the organic rolled oats and other pantry items on the other.
There is a sitting area for you to enjoy your sugary treats and coffee.
