Cobblers, Cakes and Kream is a beloved southern-style bakery renowned for its signature cobblers, which have received high praise from notable publications like the LA Times. This bakery is famous not only for its cobblers made with fresh peaches, blackberries, and apples but also for a mouth-watering selection of traditional desserts that evoke the nostalgic flavors of homemade treats. Customers regularly enjoy a wide assortment of cakes, cupcakes, pies, cookies, and the bakery's renowned banana pudding. Additionally, Cobblers, Cakes and Kream offers an impressive selection of "old school" coffee and tea cakes, melding classic Southern baking traditions with innovative dessert offerings. A distinctive feature of the bakery is its locally hand-packed ice cream, affectionately known as the "Kream" in CC&K, celebrated for its rich flavor and creamy texture. This ice cream perfectly complements the bakery's offerings, enhancing the overall customer experience whether enjoyed alongside a freshly baked treat or savored on its own.Show More
