With so many bakeries to choose from in central Ohio, how can you possibly pick the right one?
At CityScene, we figured the best way to pick a bakery is to find out what each one does best. So we asked 10 of the Columbus area’s top contenders a simple question: What do you do better than anyone else?
Go Nuts for Doughnuts
Ask any Otterbein University student what he or she craves from Schneider’s Bakery in Westerville. If you get an answer other than “doughnuts,” consider that student’s response an aberration. Doughnuts are the bakery’s most popular type of baked good, from glazed to chocolate iced cream-filled. The honey buns covered in nuts and icing – known as nut toppers – are among the best-sellers. Jeff Hamler credits the doughnuts’ popularity to the bakery’s policy of making them, including all cream filling, from scratch. “Hardly anybody’s making doughnuts from scratch anymore … but there are still a few of us,” says Hamler.
