Swedish Crown Bakery

OMG is right! I found this quaint little gem of a bakery by a very happy accident! I bought the coffee cookies, a pyramid truffle and a coffee roll, took them home and tried the coffee cookie first. It was rich and delicious, with a fresh, wonderful, perfectly balanced coffee flavor in a crisp good sized cookie. I could eat only one, it was THAT good and satisfying! Which means my treats will last a while:) I was able to say hello to one of the bakers (owner?) and saw how she was creating these beautiful and amazing delicacies. There is an incredible amount of work that goes into making these items, and it shows in the finished product. Well worth the price. I will be back and I will tell everyone I know! The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Thank you! - a Finnish Fan

I’ve only known about this Swedish Bakery for a month now and have been back with my husband and children twice! The owner even recognized me after only being there 3 times in a month! I got 4 hot cocoas today to bring to my husband and his crew. The owner was so kind as to carry them out to my car as I had my two kids with me. My son adored the gluten free chocolate donut and my baby daughter finished the lavender dream cookies in peace and quiet. When I came on a date here with my husband, he loved it. With first bite he took his eyebrows went up and he said wow with astonishment! Everything I tried here is unbelievably great! And the coffee is so simple and delicious! The ingredients in everything are so good! I believe they even use coconut oil in their hot cocoa! WOW! So amazing! Our family supports these guys on a regular basis now! I can’t think of anywhere better or any atmosphere better to get coffee and treats! My friend have to come in and check it out!

Went there today for the first time! Very impressed with the delicious pastries I got and the yummy lentil soup! Cute place and super nice owners. Being from Europe myself I know what good pastries are and this bakery is the real deal. Will be back!

Absolute gem! Being a Swedish expat, I felt compelled to make a trip to Anoka and check this place out. I was not disappointed! One of the best bakeries/pastry-shops I have ever been to. Owners are very friendly and their passion and attention to detail shines through everything they do. I hope they will be able to move to a bigger facility soon so more people can enjoy this!

I've eaten 'skoleboller' (school buns) in many variations in Scandinavia, but I must share that the Swedish Crown Bakery's version of this childhood favorite is one of the best I've had. For the uninitiated, a skolebolle is a yeast raised cardamom flavored bun filled with an egg cream that peeks out the top, and sprinkled liberally with grated coconut. The Crown Bakery's yeast dough has the right consistency for this role - not too fluffy, but no hint of stodginess either, and is sweetened lightly enough that the egg custard gets a chance to claim its place in this enchanting delicacy. Worth the trip to sample this bun alone...
