Gremler's Bakery

First and foremost...I have lived in Rapids for about a year and a half, and recently discovered Gremler's Bakery. I have to say that Gremler's is a...WONDERFUL...LOCALLY OWNED...LOCALLY OPERATED...bakery, with DELICIOUS baked goods...which are baked by some of the nicest people I have met in a long time!!!!!



I received a fruit cake that was baked at Gremler's Bakery as a Christmas gift the other day. Now, I realize a stigma has developed over the years, depicting fruit cakes as the one gift you do not want to receive! Years ago business caught on to the trend of giving fruitcakes as gifts, and began the mass production of what has become "fruitcake lore"...You may know the song that describes the fruitcake as being useful only as a paperweight or a football...a fruitcake so dense that not even running it through a mulcher or backing over it with your car will scar it! Years ago, because of the fact that homemade fruitcakes are so incredibly delicious, people baked them for their own families to eat, and then also gave them as gifts to those they were closest to. Of course, I have to admit..."The Fruitcake Song" really is hilarious...because it is true...but ONLY of the fruitcakes you find at the "Big Box" stores (and probably even a few bakeries)........BUT....



The point of all my yammering is:



THE REASON FRUITCAKES BECAME SO POPULAR IN THE FIRST PLACE, IS BECAUSE OF HOW ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS THEY ARE...WHEN THEY ARE HOMEMEDE!!!!!! SO.........



If you want a REALLY DELICIOUS, homemade fruitcake...baked the way they ought to be...or any other baked good...made by some of the most courteous, first-rate, local business owners around...I HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND Gremler's Bakery!!!!!!!
