5 Best Bakeries in Salem

“I tell people "I don't like cupcakes" when cupcakes appear. I never have, until now! I was just gifted a box of these cupcakes. Holy moly! Delicious and beautiful! If all cupcakes were like these, my mind would be changed. The chocolate buttercream was both chocolaty and buttery! The cake itself was a nice texture and tasty. The exact opposite of what makes supermarket cupcakes icky. These cupcakes were a revelation!“

“The rye is fantastic and just to my taste. Delicious breads and sweets, and a small selection of Russian goods, including fermented cabbage/carrot, kvass, salted fish, caviar spread, quince jam, sour cherry jam, candies, shashlik spices. There is a small section of handmade knitwear too. Friendly proprietor, very clean and bright shop. All in all a very pleasant stop to make in your day. Please support this local business!“

“Definitely the best bakery in Salem! Everything I have ordered from Sugar Love is delicious. The cupcakes and cakes are amazing, the frosting is light and fluffy and not overly sweet. Highly recommend the cinnamon buns! They are very accommodating and friendly and always have cakes on hand for walk in purchase.“

“The Baby Shower cake was superb. Everyone asked where we bought it. I told them about your move from Salem on Rt 28 to Windham, everyone had a generous slice and took extra home with them. The taste, was above many other cakes I have ever bought other places. We were very pleased with the choice made to order the cake from your establishment. Thank you very much! Will return for future orders and I'm sure many people who had a slice at the party will surely frequent your Bakery, they were all very pleased. Great job, the cake was a hugh hit!!!“

“I love this place. As someone who follows a keto way of life, I really appreciate the keto selection, although small, at this bakery. At first I thought xylitol may give me issues but I was surprised there was no distress.Please remember when shopping here that sugar free does not mean low carb. Only keto can really be that. Sugar free is in everything but they use flour blend for the non-keto items. If you have questions about sugar free and keto stuff, let me know.“
