Kvarnström's Bakery

Kvarnström's Bakery Our email is provided!** If you're interested in obtaining long-term orders, give us a call!

Our bakery provides traditional Scandinavian goods like rosettes, krumkake, sandbakkels, kransekakes, lefse, & limpa, as well as scones, pies, muffins, & cookies.

**Please do not send Facebook messages with order enquiries. A bakery that started as a joke, then turned into construction work in the backyard, and became a fully-certified local bakery in Westby, Wisconsin. Located in the Driftless

Valley Region, we are surrounded by organic farms, beautiful views, and warm people who have supported this idea before we were even sure it was an idea. The married bakers Joyce Quarnstrom and Gordon Vande Voorde hail from South Dakota, but transplanted themselves to Westby over 20 years ago. Both are heavily influenced by the traditional baking of their mothers and fathers - German, Scandinavian, and Belgian recipes are those most often seen in the bakery. Their daughter, Emma, does try to bring some modernity to the business with design influence and a few trips to London, Norway, and Germany to bring back more recipes. A family-run business that has been featured locally and nationally (La Crosse Tribune, Westby Times, Edible Madison, Norwegian American Magazine), we also supply other local businesses with baked goods.

Ho ho ho ho and merry holiday season! A post-Thanksgiving snow dump sure has us in the spirit quickly this year 🍪☃️

It seems that there’s been some confusion with our post from last year announcing that we had to close the books on orders. To clarify, we ARE still taking orders for the 2025 holiday season!

Please call or email us your orders (our daughter manages our social media for us but Chicago is an awful long distance to ship cookies from so she can’t help as much!) and we’ll let you all know when we’re full again this year - earlier is always better to make sure we’ve got you covered 😉🤭

Wishing you & your families a wonderful and cozy few weeks of fun activities & connection before Christmas arrives 🎄❄️🥧

Hello to our fellow holiday treat seekers 🤩

With spooky season officially in the rearview, we just wanted to remind everyone to get your orders placed soon for both 🦃 Thanksgiving 🦃 and 🎄Christmas🎄!

Our books always fill up quickly, and once we get closer to the date it’s hard to guarantee any leftovers for walk-ins 😉

Here’s to another holiday season of cheer from our family to yours!

Best,
the bakers

Friends, family, angels, and snowmen (conspicuously missing this Christmas): THANK YOU so much for your support this year! We’ve been a little silent on here because we’re been up to our elbows in all the beautiful treats you’ve ordered.

We have stopped taking orders for the year and if you’ve tried to come in to get something without an order, we’re so sorry! It’s been our busiest year yet and we have nothing to spare (not even for the bakers!).

From all of us to all of you, have a wonderful holiday weekend and the happiest new year celebrations! 🎄❄️☃️🎁

Happy Syttende Mai, all! 🇳🇴

If you’re looking for the bakers today, you’ll find us at the Heritage Center (Westby’s VFW) with lots of traditional treats (think sandbakkels, rosettes, krumkake, and more!) 🍪 Come say hi - we’re there until 4pm!

Hello friends near and far!

You may have noticed that we are no longer listing hours here on our page. Don't worry, we're not going anywhere 😉 However, we are only going to be doing bake-to-order from now on due to inconsistency in walk-ins.

So just make sure you call or email ahead to place your order and let us know which day you'll be picking up!

Thank you all for your understanding and continued support 🥰

Some bakers are short and are in it up to our knees!

Happy snow season, all ☃️ We just wanted to hop on here to first say thank you so much for all the support we've gotten this year! You're wonderful to support & shop local, and we appreciate it more than you know.

Second, we have actually received such an overwhelming amount of orders that we officially can no longer accept any more for Christmas this year. Thank you so much for filling our (still paper!) order books to the brim for the 2022 Christmas season. 🎄🥧🍪🎀

Hi all, and merry happy holiday season! 🎄☃️🎉

We're already up to our eyeballs, both in snow and in cookies! We're so grateful to you all & wanted to take a moment to say so, and remind you to get your Christmas & New Year's orders in soon.

For those of you who haven't seen us since last Christmas, we've got our updated pricing sheet here so you know what to expect. As always, we do not accept orders through Facebook message, but we do through email to [email protected] or by calling us at 608-634-6030.

Merry and bright to all of you! ✨

It’s that time of year: The Great Grape Giveaway!

The weather was perfect this year for grapes, and we have the crop to prove it - more than enough for baked goods, juices, and jam. So, we’re giving them away 🍇

Make sure to call us ahead of time at 608-634-6030 and let us know how much you’d like!

Hello friends, and happy-nearly Syttende Mai weekend!

We're going to be open all day this Saturday (May 14th) from 9-4 at the bakery. We'll have a large selection of traditional Scandinavian goodies, and it will be first-come, first-served! So if you would like to order something or guarantee that there will be some for you, please give us a call to place an order. 🍪🍪🍪

If you're not familiar with our bakery, it's located in the backyard of our home in a residential area. We'll have a large sign out front so hopefully we'll be hard to miss. We do recommend that everyone park on the road instead of in the driveway so that no one gets parked in 😉

We're so looking forward to seeing you all and celebrating the holiday together!🇳🇴🎉

Hello friends, and happy holiday season to you all!

It’s pretty clear not just from our chats with you all when you come in to pick up treats but also from the sheer volume of orders this year that people are finally able to spend some quality time with family this year. ❤️ We’re so happy for you all!

However, this means that we were taken by surprise a little bit by our orders and are officially already at capacity for Christmas orders. *This means that unless you have already placed an order to be picked up this week, we unfortunately will not be able to fill any additional requests*

Have a wonderful holiday season and, as always, take care of one another.

Merry Christmas! 🎄 🍪
The bakers
