She told us Her father learned his bakery skills in Germany and handed down those skills to his children. She's gave us some recommendations of her pastries and I purchased 1/2 a dozen. I ate a lemon danish and it was delicious. This was the best danish I ever had because it wasn't overly sweet, and it had a soft texture. Carstens is by far the best German Bakery in the State of Idaho. The prices were reasonable, customer service was great and their donuts and pastries tasted amazing! I highly recommend stopping at Carstens if you want good quality pastries.

We have seen the bakery for a while and finally went in. Everything in the cases looked great so we…read moredecided to try a couple of things. We selected a shrimp Thai soup and a chicken curry hand pie. We also got a goat cheese and fig danish and german cinnamon roll. We had the soup and hand pie tonight and were very pleased. The soup had lots of shrimp and was spicy and flavorful without being too hot. The hand pie was delicious. The pastry was so light and flaky with a delightful butter taste. The curry chicken had a very good flavor and the combination of the two was terrific! I had a small bite of the german cinnamon roll before dinner and, again, the pastry was light and flaky with a great butter flavor. There was a good amount of cinnamon and brown sugar in the roll. I'm going to have more of it later tonight! The young lady behind the counter (I don't remember her name) was very helpful, describing the options well. We chatted with her while we made our choices. We took our food to go so I didn't see the entire store - next time. And there will be a next time!

So far every macha and coffee drink I've tried, I have liked! They have coconut water, and other drink options for you to choose from as well. It's a good eatery to go to & highly recommend it!

The candies, chocolate, clothing and fun "add-on" gift topper selection is the best around. You can find something in every price range and the quality is fantastic. What makes this store my favorite besides all of the above are the wonderful owners and staff. They're always so welcoming, helpful, kind and appreciative of each person that walks in the doors. It feels like a big hug when you walk in and experience it for yourself - makes you want to stick around, take it all in and then come back for more. Definitely a vibe with all it has to offer from the cute little dessert bar in the back, make your own olive oils and vinegar flavors with tasting stations and the non-intimidating department store feel to the entire store. I tell everyone about this place and it has never disappointed. Thanks so much, Julie and Mike, for creating a luxurious, yet affordable store that captures the essence of the 5 senses along with my urge to spend money!

Such a fun, unexpected find in Idaho Falls. Lovely/Fun gift options. Other reviews are spot on!read more

I had a coworker bring me a donut today - it was a raspberry filled donut. When I say filled I mean…read morefilled. It was awesome. The donut still tasted fresh at 3pm. Most other places I have gotten filled donuts have some filling in them, but this one was filled. I mean oozing out when you take a bite take another bite and it is still ozzing out. Other places I have gone, you can eat more than half the donut and wonder if there is any filling in them. every single bite had filling. Was I satisfied with the donut? Heck yes, I was. I have had a few other opportunities to have donuts from here and have never been disappointed. Sometimes I have a hard time with the price, but then after eatting the donut(s) I remember it is worth it, more so than grocery stores who charge almost the same price. These are quality donuts. Not to mention, I love the business name.
