    Hill Top Bakery is the BEST bakery in NE WI, dare I say best in the entire STATE! My husband was born in Kaukauna, but I wasn't familiar with the city. Well, the first time he introduced me to Hill Top Bakery, I was smitten. The delicate, sweet, doughy aroma hits your senses like a million delicate butterflies tickling your senses, making you weak in the knees! For our wedding 10 years ago, we got the cupcakes from Hill Top and let me tell you, those were the BEST cupcakes we have ever eaten. Other cupcakes may look extravagant, but completely lack the flavor. Hill Top's not only LOOKED beautiful, they tasted even BETTER! I seriously have never had a better cupcake BEFORE or SINCE then. My husband can attest to that. Hill Top never disappoints. You can taste the immense LOVE they pack into every single delicacy they make! I just picked up two dozen doughnuts for my coworkers, and told them they were the BEST doughnuts they will ever eat. Well, needless to say, they all loved every bite! I have been to other bakeries, but there is always something "off" with one or more of the things they make. Whether it's the oil they use or the fake-tasting fillings or the flavors of frosting, there's always something that could be improved. Hill Top is different. I have never had one single thing from Hill Top that I didn't like. Everything I've ever eaten from there has been nothing short of delicious. They really know what they're doing. Good, family-owned bakeries are few and far between nowadays, but Hill Top is the shining star in Wisconsin. Go pick up a triple chocolate doughnut to see what I mean. You just can't get any better. By the way, the photos are the doughnuts I picked up this morning for my coworkers. One box of regular and one box of gourmet. $30 for all 24 doughnuts and worth every single penny.

    And matching smash cake

    Hill Top has become my family's go to bakery - from donuts on Saturday morning to gender reveal treats to custom birthday cakes. The service is always great, the prices are always reasonable, and most importantly the treats are always delicious!

    Cookies!

    This is the best bakery I have ever been to and I've been to a lot. My favorite is the white long johns. They will even custom make you a donut such as an Oreo donut. I love this place so

    An independent family-run bakery that's been in the same family for the last 48 years, but goes back to the 1920s! When I was young there were bakeries sprinkled liberally across every small town in the Fox River Valley of Wisconsin. This is one that remains; it's the only business in this neighborhood of houses. Too often in the big cities a business has just one focus: the donut shop, the bundt cake place, cupcakes only, bread only. Hilltop has everything sweet you can imagine packed into their modest space. Muffins, cakes, pies, donuts, bars, cookies, bread, buns....what did I miss?....they have it. All fresh, & many things not kept around for more than a day without being placed on the mark down rack. I'm not going to list my favorites because there's not a thing in this place I wouldn't devour. Take a look at the pics-what DOESN'T look good to you? LOL.

    Fresh Hilltop Donuts!!!

    I grew up on Hill Top Bakery donuts. Nothing will ever compare - this is arguably the best donut shop in the entire state of WI.

    Great bakery. Grew up eating their tasty treats since it was only about a block away from my grade school. Everything is good. Try it.

    Unbelievable! I found this place online and their artistic fluidity in the cakes is amazing. So…read moremany different skills that take so much work to learn. I gave some details but then said they had total freedom. Just out of the park. Thank you so much for the care and thought put in our cake. We will never forget it!

    I was looking to buy a cake for my friends wedding, as her wedding present (to save her money and…read moregive her something meaningful). I contacted Cake Anatomy LLC even after the bride had gone into the showroom herself and was treating poorly by the baker. I was hoping perhaps she was just having a bad day... Unfortunately, her request for a simple cake for two months out was /denied/ because it would be "unprofessional" to create a plain white cake and reflect poorly on their business. This was after we had exchanged several emails going so far as to set up a tasting (at which the baker would not allow the bride to make a request since she has dietary restrictions. A member of her bridal party has a severe allergy to chocolate, so she couldn't just taste anything and leave it to chance). Suddenly, she refused to help us out because our specifications were not in her repertoire. Her website is poorly worded, when she uses terms like "to include" or "one of our specialties" she really means that that's all she does. I have heard her cakes are delicious via other reviews online, so if you are looking to have her make your wedding cake, I hope your request fits into her guidelines, otherwise you will be unprofessionally a brusquely declined.

They have a lot of events going on since it is connected to the bike shop, it's always great hearing what the upcoming event will be. I totally recommend stopping here for some coffee and something to eat. It's a cute little place to hang out and I think during the summer you'll be able to sit rooftop outside which would be really nice :)
