Sluy's Bakery-Poulsbo, WA - 5 Stars

Searching for a little piece of heaven?? Just take a trip to Sluy's Bakery in Poulsbo, WA! It is AMAZINGLY delicious! The first time I went I seriously thought I found heaven. It is just perfect; you won't be disappointed.

Enjoying a cinnamon roll
I will never forget my first and only visit. I was walking down the street with my friend looking for a neat place to stop in. We chose Sluy's because we could smell it before even seeing it. It smelt so good, we knew it had to be delicious! I walked in, turned to my friend and said I'm in heaven! Seriously, I probably looked like a giddy schoolgirl. I was so excited to see so many amazing things. There were cinnamon rolls, donuts, German chocolate brownies, cookies, eclairs, bread, pastries galore, and the list goes on. I was so happy, yet I had a very hard time deciding what to choose because I knew I couldn't try everything. I went with a cinnamon roll, donut, German chocolate brownie, and an eclair. Yeah, I didn't narrow it down too much, but who could pass on trying any of those? They were heavenly! I enjoyed every single bite. My friend laughed at me because he couldn't believe I ate all of them (not in one day of course). I wanted to go back before I flew out, but we didn't get a chance. I left sad knowing I wouldn't be able to find those amazing treats anywhere in FL. And of course I never have.

Smiley Face cookie
I have been able to enjoy a little piece of Sluy's a few times since then. Before my friend moved, he came and visited me once. He melted my heart when he showed up with a Tupperware container of German Chocolate Brownies! I was so excited! They don't ship their brownies due to them not staying fresh, so he made my day. I honestly don't know if I shared with anyone...maybe my dad because he appreciates sweets and treats as much as I do. I have also ordered 3 times now from Sluy's for myself and/or my students. They make really cute Smiley Face cookies. I have ordered them twice for my students. I have also ordered their cinnamon rolls/buns twice. I ordered them once with my class cookie order and then this year I also ordered cinnamon rolls/buns to begin the school year and to share with some friends. Waiting for the package to arrive is so exciting. The box smells just as good as the actual bakery and my mouth waters from the smell. They are that amazing!

A couple more photos of orders.

If you ever take a trip to WA, Poulsbo should be on your stop list. They really are the best bakery I have ever been to. They make everything, and you can tell by the way it tastes, it is homemade. If you can't go, they also ship. They only ship specific things due to freshness, but you will still be happy. If you do get a chance to go, make sure to try the Viking donut and/or the German chocolate brownies. They are just amazing!
