As many of you may already know, Carmen’s Bakery will be closing its doors one last time on Thursday, December 31. It is a bittersweet moment for the entire Carmen’s Bakery family, after 37 successful years in business.
We could not have made it to the 37-year mark without you, our amazing customers.

We hope that you can stop by in the coming weeks to say goodbye one last time. We look forward to serving you and your family for our last holiday season.
