Buttermilk Bakery

The Write-Up

The full story

Buttermilk Bakery is a cozy, charming Winter Park bakery where the case fills fresh every morning and the hardest part is deciding which treats to get. The ham and Gruyere croissant, the kouign amann and the tomato and cheese tart lead a lineup guests call sweet but not too sweet, with specials rotating in every week. The popular items sell out fast, so regulars plan accordingly.
