Everyone loves some good fresh-baked goods. Warm, fluffy, and deliciously sweet, goods from the French-inpspired bakery The Nostalgic Bean (1403 Lynn Ave., Altoona) are sure to please. This bakery offers macarons, quiche, croissants, and eclairs (is your mouth watering yet?), and more. Sue’s Deluxe Bake Shop (1319 Birch St., Eau Claire) remains a traditional favorite with fresh-baked breads, doughnuts, danishes, and cookies, and features second-generation family ownership. Josef’s Cheesecake (29 W. Spring St., Chippewa Falls) specializes in a new goodie: cheesecake cupcakes, coming in all different sizes, shapes, colors, and flavors. (In fact, they have made more than 450 flavors of cheesecake already!) — Stephanie Nesja
