Anita is a native of California and has been involved with baking for years. She opened Anita’s Famous Rolls in September 2020, the pandemic year when a lot of us were thinking about starting something new.

Hours are 6:30 am to 2:00 pm on Tuesday through Friday, and 7:00 am to 2:00 pm on Saturday through Sunday. The bakery is closed on Mondays.

Definitely on the pricey side. BUT, hands down the best King Cake I’ve ever had. Everything looks amazing. (Yelp reviewer.)
