What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Bootsma Bakery is a highly praised local gem, lauded for its exceptional donuts, creative custom cakes, and a delightful array of unique pastries like lime Bismarcks and almond tarts. While most reviews highlight the incredible taste and quality ingredients, a few customers have noted issues with the hardness of certain items, though the owner's responsiveness is appreciated. The friendly atmosphere and commitment to fresh baking make it a must-visit for sweet tooths.
"I was there to pick up a “Too good to go” order and seen some of the other desserts in the case and asked the lady’s what a couple of the things are and the one I bought looked like a piece of chocolate cake covered in icing but they told me it was brownies which sounded even better to me. Got home took a fork to the brownies and it was hard. Very hard. Here it was all cut edge pieces of brownies covered in icing but all very hard very thick fork bending pieces. The owner responded quickly and clarified the issue which made me change my rating! I love Bootsma Bakery!"

"Bootsma.. the best among the best
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Bootsma is a delightful bakery that truly impresses with its offerings. I indulged in their Vanilla Heart Birthday Cake, which was moist, rich in vanilla flavor, and beautifully layered with fluffy frosting absolutely divine! Their freshly made doughnuts were equally scrumptious, light, airy, and perfectly glazed, making them a must-try.
The inviting atmosphere and friendly staff added to the overall experience, ensuring you feel right at home. With a commitment to quality and flavor, Bootsma stands out as a must-visit destination for anyone with a sweet tooth. I can't wait to return for more tasty treats!"

"Stopped in on this bakery in Lethbridge this morning before we continued our road trip. Everything looked delicious but we settled on rye bread and cheese buns for our picnic lunches. Definitely worth the stop."
