It seems like doughnuts have been a part of Frankfort’s going back as far as anyone here can remember. Many people simply cannot imagine being here and not visiting the “The Bakery.” 404 Main Street, where Crescent Bakery is located, has housed a retail bakery going back to at least 1948.

Like everything else at Crescent Bakery, our dessert menu focuses on quality. We’re sure you’ll appreciate our dedication to scratch techniques, creating fresh butter cream, cakes and desserts the old fashioned way. One taste will tell you that we never use mixes or artificial ingredients, and that one taste will keep you coming back.

As with all of our products, we don't cut any corners with our doughnuts and other pastries. Our doughnut glaze is made from four simple ingredients: water, powdered cane sugar, honey and pure vanilla. We make pastry cream from scratch to fill our Boston Creams, which we then dip in a wonderful dark chocolate glaze. While you’re here you’ve got to try one of our signature items: the glazed crescent. And if you come in early enough, you might just be lucky and get a warm one!
