Bloom Baking Company

Myself and a couple of friends visited Bloom this week for the first time. How have I not been here before?!I ordered a California melt with turkey, bacon, and avocado. I can't even begin to tell you how good the bread itself was (I should have snapped a photo!!). It was delicious!We, also, tried the lemon tart, ooey gooey cookie, and crème brûlée. All amazing! I brought a strawberry cupcake home to my daughter who absolutely loved it. The frost was a buttercream that was heaven. If you are in the area, definitely stop in for some tasty treats! I'll be returning for breakfast next time .

Great selection of pastries,cookies and breads. Staff are always helpful. The store is small but has clear glass cases to view the treats. Everything here is great!! They only use Swiss meringue buttercream on their cupcakes. The prices are a little high though.

Another one of our favorite stops in Kansas City. This bakery has some of the best cookies, breads, pastries, etc... The staff is great in helping you decide what you want. This trip my husband and I picked up a couple of flavored syrups to bring home(by the way the Prickly Pear Syrup I picked up in May, made for a great flavored water.I am looki g forward to trying the new flavors I brought back this trip).We also picked up a chocolate chip cookie, peanut butter cookie, cherry danish, and chocolate croissant( they made for a great snack during the football game we were watching while on our trip). Thank you to the staff for making our visit a great one. We look forward to see you on our next trip.

cute bakery down in the river market! i've been craving a danish and they did not disappoint, had some amazing pastries and lunch sandwiches. service was excellent! i won't be able to overlook this place again!

Lots of pastries and breads to choose from. They are lacking in infused or flavored butters which would probably be a hit to sell alongside the bread. Delicious challah here!

If you are browsing around and in search of a bougie baking company (and happen to be in City Market proper), hopefully you stumble upon Bloom. Bloom Baking Co is French owned and takes pride in their pastries but also, value their customers. The other day, I was meandering around and knew I was going to hit up a brewery that didn't serve food, so I quickly stopped by Bloom for a quick treat. I wasn't paying attention and must have walked in after 4pm (when they close) however, they were so accommodating and turned on the case lights and let me pick my goodie to-go. So, I was inclined to pick up two! First of all, the raspberry crumb triangle was one of my favorite bakery goods I've had in awhile. It was the perfect mix of tart and sweet and had so many fun textures. The crumb coating was almost like a granola, but the jammy raspberry layers were soft and moist. It had everything going for it! Well worth the $5. The homemade oatmeal cream pie stopped me in my tracks with its massive size so, I had to pick one up. The soft chewy cookie was fresh and had an incredible warm blend of spices and brown sugar. The rich creamy inside layer of cream cheese frosting was decadent and nostalgic. I loved this dessert. Anything I've tried from Bloom has been of the highest quality, and I love having it in City Market, it's like a little Pâtisserie right in Paris of the Plains!

I have become a frequent Bloom customer. I first stopped by because it was walkable from work and needed lunch asap. I tried the chicken pesto sandwich which was SO good. This is probably one of my favorites on their menu. Although everything I've tried has been really good. Their freshly baked bread makes everything taste way good. Their chai lattes have got to be one of the bests I've ever tried. (And I love chai lattes). Service is always prompt and friendly. I've only tried a few of their pastries but they look yummy and temping.

Picked this "turkey pesto basil" sandwich up from Nature's Own. More like bread. Really disappointing. Not sure how much I spent on it because I didn't grab a receipt but I'm sure it wasn't worth the lack of turkey and pesto basil. Never again.

The good- the cake I ordered was decorated beautifully and the owner was easy to communicate with when ordering. The bad- the cake was extremely dry and the icing was a weird consistency (hard, inedible). We ordered the cake for a retirement party and unfortunately we threw most of it away because no one liked it. I also ordered a strawberry cupcake and the icing was frozen so I wasn't able to eat it at first. The icing did eventually thaw but tasted freezer burnt.

We are a delicious strawberry tart. It was large enough for two or more depending on how hungry you are.
