So happy to have found an almond cake here! A friend and I stopped in on a whim while we were in the neighborhood and I was so glad we did. The almond cake is sooo moist and delicious, it truly reminds me of my grandma. I was so tempted to get the zucchini bread, but that'll have to wait for another time. Customer service was very kind and informative. She let us know that they're always at the farmers market so if I don't make it to the shop, I can always find yummy treats there. read more

Carrot bread with a cream cheese drizzle sounded and looked great. Picked up a loaf at the North Winter Market. The bread was under 2" tall, burnt on the bottom, and seriously lacking in flavor. Such a disappointment. I visited her bakery in Millard, while open, with similar results. A true baker would not sell burnt products. read more

Shandy's food has character. Not cookie-cutter in any way. Chocolate peanut-butter cookies are out of this world. Pies are spicier and decidedly less sweet than the norm, which might not be your thing. Worth trying a variety of things because if a particular style strikes your fancy, it's unlikely to be duplicated elsewhere. read more

I love Shandy's! She makes an array of different breads, cookies and other treats. Most recently I stopped by for sugar cookies and zucchini bread. The bread was so good. She used just the right spices, it was just like the bread my mother made 30 years ago. The sugar cookies were Kansas City/Football themed and they made my 8 year old's day. Shandy also has cookies such as chocolate chip and oatmeal scotchies that my husband just loves. The service is very friendly. The atmosphere is that of a small working bakery that has shelves stocked with the days offerings. I will definitely be back. read more

If you're looking for a unique celebration cake I highly recommend the Princess cake. It's a little pricey, but for good reason. The taste is pure decadence. It's absolutely beautiful. Sponge cake, raspberry and whipped cream filling, topped with a thin marzipan. Highly recommend!! It will not disappoint. read more

Pumpkin Twinkies and almond cakes were phenomenal....Support local small businesses and give them a try, you won't be disappointed. Service was awesome and she is so friendly! read more

Stopped in one afternoon last week. From the counter, I could see that the mixer was filthy. I bought a pumpkin twinkie and there was a long blonde hair baked into it. There was a nasty smell coming from the cookie rack near the bathroom. The lady that claims to be the owner is a complete bitch! I would NEVER give this place my money. GROSS! read more

HER FOOD SUCKS and they're horrible!! Don't buy from her! There was literally a piece of blonde hair in the food and it was disgusting

I added photos of my Instagram review for more in-depth info in the desserts. The short version is that I love this bakery! The lemon poppyseed bundt cake was downright addicting and the Out Of This World cookie was a fun twist on your classic chocolate chip. They have one of the best ginger cookies I've ever had. As someone who has sampled nearly 800 cookies in the last 17 months, it takes a lot to wow me! I will definitely be back and I highly recommend you try it out! read more

Shandy's Swedish Bakery was mentioned on the Grow Omaha radio show this morning, mentioning it had recently opened, so I had to go and try it out. It may be a little hard to find if you don't know the area, but if you travel south from 138th and Q there is a small strip mall south of La Petite Academy where it can be found. As I said it was mentioned on the radio so many people had already been there before me that took care of her inventory already. Shandy was the only one there feverishly trying to restock the goods in her small store. She pointed out the loaf of Swedish Rye Bread and her Scandinavian Almond Cake which I got and her full breaded Kolaches (she also had Bohemian in the family). She gave many suggestions for the Rye bread with including grilled cheese which I will try first. I hope to go back to try her Kolaches. read more

I discovered this little hidden gem yesterday when I was looking for fresh baked cookies. It's take out only as it's quite small. But the flavor of the oatmeal Scotchies was HUGE! Texture soft and chewy. I'd take a pic of the cookies, but they're all gone, gobbled up by my family! I'll be back to get more soon. read more

Top notch baked goods. This place is a gem. Shandy was a really nice woman as well. The chocolate chip Pumpkin pie bread was my favorite. Apple Snickerdoodle bread was tasty as well. Cinnamon rolls were top notch as expected, after seeing other reviews about them. The frosting is what makes them so good. It was all good and worth the money for some homemade baked goods. I'll definitely be coming back to this place if I'm in need of some baked goods in the future. read more

This lady is not friendly! Purchased 2x at farmers market and once at store, the Swedish almond cake is tasty but cookies are average. For me personality goes a long way! Dealing with the public sometimes sucks but as a business owner sometimes you just have to suck it up. Like to support our Millard businesses but done trying with this one! read more

We love this small bakery with Swedish staples and seasonal items. We have ordered pumpkin pie and dinner rolls for thanksgiving and recently stopped in for the pumpkin twinkies. Supporting local is important and Shandy works hard and had earned that support. read more

Amazing customer service and great looking products.. We got some cinnamon rolls because I read amazing reviews slightly disappointed as I LOVE cinnamon rolls and frosting.. They seemed to not have enough space in the tin tray that they were in to let the cinnamon and frosting soak into the whole thing when it was heated up.. I am still searching for my perfect cinnamon roll but I will for sure be a returning customer to try other items :) read more

We went in to pick up cinnamon rolls to go with chili only to find they had run out. The guy behind the counter had pulled a pan earlier to take home to his family. Without hesitation, he offered to give that pan to us. Even though we told him multiple times it was no problem we would figure it out, he insisted we take it. I'm usually not a huge cinnamon roll fan, but these are incredible! read more

I don't know much about Scandinavian baked goods, but the stuff we had here was tasty. The bakery is owned by a nice lady that was also the only person manning the shop. It is kind of hard to get to and locate, but it is worth a visit if you are in Millard and need something baked fresh. We enjoyed the cookies and bread. When we visited, there weren't a lot of options, but the goods were solid. read more

I tried the rye bread, snickerdoodle bread, and lemon blueberry bread. All were excellent! I gave one loaf of rye bread to a family member who really loves a more sweet rye bread. The bread had to be rationed or he would have eaten the whole loaf all at once! read more

Moist and delicious! Owner is friendly and inviting. These mini bundt cakes had just come out of their kitchen. Superior moistness. Chocolate-dipped top and strawberry-glaze top cakes have hint of almond. German-chocolate cakes are the perfect size for "just-right' indulgence. Lemon- A wonderful find is the Poppy seed cake! The lemon hits your tastebuds first followed by the sweetness of the cake- best lemon poppy flavor I have ever had!! Owner also has other Swedish specialties. Support local owners and in this case, support deliciousness for you and those you share with! read more

My mouth had been watering and craving to try Shandy's Bakery in the Millard area of Omaha, for awhile. I finally did and got the Pumpkin Twinkies. Truthfully I was disappointed. 1st because they were soooo small - about half the size of an actual twinkie (no joke). 2nd the frosting was NOT cream cheese and barely had any flavor (she SAID it was, but if that's the case the amount of cream cheese in the actual filling was minuscule and you couldn't taste it) The Pumpkin bread part of it was nice, but not the best I've had. It was rather dry and tasted a couple days old. Not worth $3 each for a half size twinkie about 3 inches long. The owner couldn't even be bothered to wait on me, even tho she was about 6ft in front of me. She had her son do so. That was after I even mentioned it was my first time there and I had driven quite a distance to get there. I did NOT feel welcomed. Bear in mind no other customers were in the store and it was an hour after opening. I won't be recommending nor will I be back. It definitely was not worth the drive. read more

Absolutely Love Shandy's Bakery!! Her Almond Cake was just delicious. I know next visit I will buy a larger one. The Rye bread was great . Made the best grilled sandwiches. But the ultimate surprise was her German Chocolate Cupcakes!! Oh my!! Just was lucky that she had made them that day. They won't last long.. Just Happy to support a small local business and it's wonderful! read more

Reminds me of my grandmother's baking! Especially the Swedish rye bread! Best in town! Really there's nothing Shandy bakes that isn't wonderful! She is hard working and very accommodating! Yes yes yes definitely one of the best and Omaha! read more

Got there right before it closed to get cinnamon rolls, unfortunately they were all sold out from the morning. Thought, well I might as well get something. Got a small bag of m&m sugar cookies (only $4) and they were probably the best cookies I've ever had. So happy to find this small delicious bakery. I will definitely be going there again, more than I should lol read more

They have amazing cookies! The service is personal and location is great for Millard! I cannot wait to try more items!!!

I first had the pleasure of getting an almond cake loaf from a friend as a Christmas present. I've been hooked ever since!! Everything she offers is delicious! It's a one of a kind bakery that with every bite brings joy! It's that good! read more
