This is the best place in Asheboro to get your cakes done they are beautiful and delicious!!

Been going there since I was a kid now I get to take my kids. Lots of goodies to choose from! Staff is always pleasant!

This place deserves ten stars. The staff are so polite and wonderful. Not to mention the beautifully crafted goodies are very delicious with great affordable prices, I loved every experience I've had with this bakery and I know I'll continue to. This bakery is my number one choice and recommendation to all my friends and family! I hope they receive nothing but blessings read more

I briefly stopped into this bakery, mainly because the town's most prominent restaurant was unsurprisingly packed. It had a very old-timey vibe and indulgent, saccharine baked goods. I elected to take a chocolate cream horn to go, which was more subtle than some of their options, but still quite indulgent. The inside was as creamy as the outside was flaky. I couldn't accuse them of delivering anything other than what they offer. read more

This is an amazing bakery in downtown Asheboro! Growing up, my mom would bring me by if I got a good report card. Today, I stopped by to get some sweets to celebrate Valentine's Day! Their design cookies are my daughter's absolute favorite--they were out of the plain but had the decorated dinosaurs (which are even better!) Over the years, we've had cakes and pies from Central Bakery and would 100% recommend. read more

The best!!!!!! Old time taste and service. You will not find any better- everything they make is delicious read more

THESE. ARE. MY. PEOPLE. They had icing pops. Icing. Pops. ICING. JUST ICING. In a push up pop. Why bother with the extraneous stuff when you can go straight for the goods? Well because the other stuff looked really good too. Got a couple of snowballs (tastes like childhood to me!), couple of sand dabs, small chocolate chip sandwich cookies, an m&m sandwich cookie and a Christmas tree cookie, the last 2 being for my kiddo so I can't speak to those other than to say they're very pretty. Of the cookies, the snowballs were my fave but all were good. I saw another review that talked about the cakes and that they could pick out the bakery's cakes by tasting the icing. To that I say, the icing tastes like what the Sweet Shoppe in High Point uses - and that's not a bad comparison at all! The prices were very reasonable as well. The most expensive thing was the icing pop at $3 (and well worth it!!). Got out for under $12 with everything. It sure is a good thing this bakery is 30 minutes away from home and not right down the street...but it will be a new go to when visiting Asheboro! "Hey honey, don't we need to go to Asheboro for something??" read more

Their baked goods are fresh and delicious although I wish they had macarons type cookies.

5 star bakery! Drove 2.5 hours to stop by this bakery to pick up coconut and chocolate pies for my Dad's 78th birthday. No one in my community makes coconut or chocolate pies which are my Dad's favorites! Bought 3 coconut 2 chocolate pies. Very reasonably priced pies. Ordered at 10am. Picked up at 3pm same day on a Saturday!! The coconut pie was incredible!!! Fresh coconut, light flaky crust. Didn't try the chocolate pie. It smelled like fresh baked chocolate chip cookies! The selection of fresh baked cookies, cupcakes, pies, brownies and eclairs was fabulous! We will be placing more orders at this bakery. Check out the bakery's FB page. Wow!!! So many fabulous cake pics and choices to choose from! read more

There were a couple of standout items at this Asheboro bakery. The cheese bites simply melt in your mouth. They are light in texture, similar to cheese straws, but they practically dissolve on your tongue. They've got a great sharp flavor and highly addicting. If you're thinking of getting a dozen, get more! You'll eat 12 by yourself. The other star of the show was the Cinnamon Crisp which has flaky layers that are softer in the middle. Goes great with a cup of coffee. We got a bunch of other stuff, but these two are worth making a trip to get. read more

Little, simple bakery in downtown Asheboro. We stopped in here for some sweet treats after having lunch; this is one of the very few bakeries in this area. We decided on chocolate chunk, chocolate chip, oatmeal raisin and white chocolate macadamia nut cookies as well as an M&M cookie on a stick and a chocolate sundae treat. I loved the oatmeal raisin cookie; the raisins were plump & juicy and the brown sugar & cinnamon flavor was just perfect. The chocolate chunk cookie was not a favorite from two people in our party but everything else was good. I wouldn't go out of my way to come back considering I don't live near this particular area but it was a good experience. Friendly service and average pricing. Thank you! read more

Stopped by after our sticker shock from The Table Farmhouse Bakery down the road, glad we did. The oatmeal cream pie sandwich was fantastic and only $1.25, I should have gotten a few more. The pumpkin cupcake was very moist and the cream cheese frosting was excellent. read more

Yum. Just ... yum. I have ordered my kids' birthday cakes here since they were one (they are 6 and 10 now). I've never had a problem with them. They are delicious, and they can have a cake for you in a day. The staff can be a bit gruff sometimes, but get passed that, because the desserts are worth it!! read more

Bought a coconut cake for a birthday and it was a hit. It was eaten way before the high dollar Charlotte bakery cake someone else brought! Thanks Central! We will be back for more cake!! read more

Amazing bakery in downtown Asheboro. Their cookies are incredible as are the oatmeal cream pies. Everything is wonderful.

Ordered my son a birthday cake on the morning of his birthday and it did not disappoint. Good cake and good price!

My favorite bakery! I love this place and have since I was a little girl. I'm almost 40 now! Everything is super delicious but my absolute favorites are the cheese Stars & oatmeal cream cookies. read more

I just moved to Asheboro in April. And folks at my work love stopping by after lunch on occasion, and we've gotten cupcakes for an event. This place is wonderful. The staff is super friendly and personable! But the proof is in the pudding, tbh. Anytime I'm in, I get snickerdoodles for the house if not several other things. I've never once been disappointed. I can't hype this place up enough! read more

I am addicted to their cookies & apple pastries. They are the perfect flavors that you want to savor with a texture that takes it to a whole new level. Crumble cookies is amateur in comparison. read more

As soon as you open the door and inhale you're in heaven!!! The absolute best of everything you can think of. The peanut butter balls...the design cookies...oatmeal cream cookies...cherry/ pineapple cookies..chocolate oatmeal drops..gingerbread men...chocolate sundae...French apple pie...and OMG the cakes!!! The absolute best frosting...EVER!!! If you're not already drooling, you will be... I know I am:) read more

I have been going to this bakery since I was little! Best bakery around by far! Everything is delicious! I definitely recommend getting a chocolate sundae!! Excellent bakery for birthday cakes!! read more

A nice little gem in downtown asheboro since 1945. A small place with mostly traditional bakery items (cookies, cupcakes, pies,etc). A very similar set of options like sweet shoppe bakery in High Point. I do want to note there were one or two unique items I have not seen before like a cinnamon swirl type cookie. Service was prompt and friendly. Worth a drop in to get a few bakery items. read more

I'm so sad to leave this review. I've grown up eating central bakery. For 27 years they have been so consistent with their cookies. However today was beyond disappointing. The icing that was in the oatmeal cream pie as well as the whoopie pie was slimy and did not taste like the usual recipe. I'm not sure if there is someone new in the kitchen or if they completely revamped the recipe but it's definitely not the same, nor is it good. Tasted like your usual powdered sugar icing and was runny like it as well. read more

Love this Bakery! Always yummy & kind staff! My kids love the cookies and cupcakes and I love the cream horns!

They are amazing! The best oatmeal creme filled cookie ever! All of their stuff is great. We always get birthday cakes from here. They even do custom icing drawings on it! My wife surprises me with awesome cookie cake! read more

Disappointed with the service I received here today. My fiancé went to pick up two slices of pound cake with buttercream frosting and was told they were out of buttercream but had Italian cream. As he has no idea about types of cakes or frostings he assumed this was another type of frosting and after purchasing and getting home quickly realized this was not a pound cake. We called the store for an explanation and to find out what kind of cake we actually received and they said it was an Italian cream cake, with pecans and cream cheese icing. Due to certain food allergies I am unable to eat this cake but the lady I spoke with over the phone said they can not take the already purchased cake slice back and they were already sold out of the pound cake prior to his arrival, which made me feel even more that they were just trying to push for a sale by not disclosing they were sold out of pound cake that he requested. I am just really dissatisfied in this whole experience and will be taking my business elsewhere. read more
