    Freeport Bakery is a Sacramento staple! They're known for their amazing baked goods and cakes and are very reliable and consistent with their high quality products. They have a small parking lot, but there's also street parking available on the neighborhood streets. You can order ahead of time online or in the store and they offer custom orders and seasonal specials. On our latest visit we stopped in ahead of the Christmas holiday looking for a birthday cake. While holiday pre-orders were closed they still had a stocked business ready for walk-ins. We arrived about thirty minutes before they opened and there was already a long line of people- both picking up pre-orders and hoping for walk-in treats like us. Once they opened the line started moving and they were a well oiled machine! They had plenty of staff to help and a lot of baked goodies ready to sell. We were able to purchase a 7in carrot cake with a "Happy Birthday" message written on it, along with a peppermint pie, and some hand pies. They packed everything so well and made sure to remind us of instructions for refrigerating the pie and cake. You can tell that this small business knows what they're doing, and the long holiday line backs up that the community knows it too. Our items were absolutely delicious and our birthday girl along with our holiday party guests enjoyed everything.

    One of my go to places for desserts, especially during the holidays. They make everything from cakes and pies to bread and pastries. This place can get busy so parking can be hit or miss. They have a small parking lot which sits in between Marie's Donuts and the bakery. When it gets super busy, your best bet is to park in the neighborhood as the parking lot can get jammed up. I have tried many of their cakes, my favorite is their fruit basket. No cash, credit cards or tap to pay. They don't do many custom cakes in my experience. Pros: everyone that's helped me has been patient and answered all my questions. Sometimes I can get overwhelmed by the sheer amount of baked goods they have so they have all been so patient with me. Even when it gets busy (especially during holiday pick ups), the line moves quickly since they are very organized. It's a small intimate space, only a few tables for dine in. They also serve coffee and tea. Cons: parking can be hard to find when it's busy.

    This bakery is dangerously good. Lowkey happy it's in Sacramento and not close to my house because I'd probably be here far too often. I was a big fan of the peanut butter chocolate chip cookie.

    Went here to get a cake for my Mother in Law's Birthday. This place has been around for so many years and makes quality cakes and pastries. It's not the cheapest place but they have fantastic stuff here. My wife had ordered the carrot cake before had so we were just picking it up. It is always busy here and this day was no different. There was a short line. Only three people ahead of us. The line moves fast. The cakes are displayed on the left side in glass cases and just in the middle are the pastries. I got a custard wheel and it was so yummy. The wife got a cheese filled pastry. So good here. They have some tables outside so you can eat right there. Inside are two tables to. The place is pretty small so you are lucky to sit down when they are really busy. The carrot cake here is not made with any nuts or raisins. Which is great for my nut allergy daughter. I have never seen that at any other bakery. So pretty cool. The taste is great also. We had to get some Halloween cookies for the family also. An extra treat.

    cherry birthday cake

    We walked in and got the cutest cake ever! It's every girl's dream pinterest cake with the cherries and the icing decorations. It was chocolate and cherry flavored, so it was on theme and quite delicious. However, when we were cutting into it, the cake kind of just fell apart. The frosting completely disconnected from the bread. I mean, it's gonna go down our stomachs anyway, but it was so hard to cut through it haha.

    Iconic sacramento bakery that I'm surprised I've never been. It's super cute and warm. Lots of seating indoors and outdoors which I was surprised by. Very organized too with a door for entry and exiting. Was also surprised by the huge array for pastries and cakes! They kept bringing new stuff out too as it was ready and I was a lil overwhelmed by all the choices. Decently priced too. I got the pretzel, cheese danish, and cookie. They were all absolutely delicious. The cheese danish wasn't like overpowering sweet like other bakeries. Felt like I was eating a semi sweet cheese cake. And the crust wasn't greasy for chewy like some chains danish's. The pretzel was soooo yummy! I love a good pretzel. Wasn't as chewy as traditional but the flavor was great end it was super moist. Will definitely be coming back for more in the future.

    Shortbread cookies valentines day themed

    Really good decaf americano. Their short bread cookies were also so cute as they were valentines themed. I actually liked the texture of the non valentines day one more. Although they're not the best bakery in the area to me I really love the cozy vibes, prices are reasonable and staff is friendly! My bf and I would also def come back for the pizza bagel, nice that they have a microwave for you to heat things up yourself

    Omg. They have burnt almond!
    Mitzi A.

    Love this local treasure! They have been here for 38 yrs and counting. Known for so many awesome treats - such as their famous Grandma's cupcakes (yes, it's really Gma's recipe!), German style pretzels, and...of course!...the legendary Burnt Almond cake! The burnt almond cake is a piece of nostalgia for me as i grew up on this cake. They are celebrating their anniversary with throwback Thursday treat specials...today was Grandma's cupcake for $1.25....but I also pre-ordered their chocolate fudge cake which will be on TBT special in 2 wks! Recommend to pre-order the cake as those must be prepared well in advance and are sure to sell out fast! Regardless if you come to visit for the anniversary fun or not...a visit here is like coming home.

    I have been a frequent flyer of Freeport Bakery for years. When I first discovered the bakery so long ago, it was because of their melt in your mouth cookies, and at the time, they were the only bakery that made tasty challah bread. Fast forward, this is where we purchase cakes for special occasions like birthdays, anniversaries, or other life events. Years ago, the bakery was much more amenable to customizing cakes then they are now. They're more of what you see is what you get, which doesn't always work when you're looking to make something special just a little bit more special. Customer service from years ago was super friendly, and they always made me feel like that family member who just walked through the door. Customer Service now is still met with a smile, but they definitely have lost that community feel edge. The pastries have gotten to be pricey, so my go to is always for that special occasion cake. They do have designated parking spaces, but the customers from the donut place next-door tend to use those spaces as well. So parking might be challenging.

    Beautiful!

    6/14/2025- My all time favorite cake ! Especially for special occasions- Plenty of cakes to choose from online-.. Son ordered cake a week before and picked up yesterday! Perfect- moist and love all the fresh fruit-!!

    It was a busy week, and I forgot to submit an online order. My usual is the quarter sheet fruit tart for birthdays. I called the bakery Saturday afternoon to order 9 inch fruit tart and a quiche Lorraine. Gave my credit card info and received a text receipt. Pick up the next morning was just as smooth. There was a steady flow of customers but the bakery was well-staffed. The fruit tart was colorful. I received instructions for reheating the quiche. The birthday girl at work was pleasantly surprised. The rest of the crew enjoyed both items. I miss the pre-COVID hours but I'm so grateful to have this bakery in the area.
