Steenstra's Royal Dutch Bakery is located in Grandville, Michigan around a 15-minute drive from Grand Rapids.
The Steenstra family has recipes that are passed down from generation to generation. You can find every classic baked good here like rolls, breads, pastries, pies, muffins, coffee cakes, and more.
Many local families have a tradition of stopping at this quaint and charming bakery and grabbing some donuts to go or ordering cakes and cookies for special occasions.
No matter what holiday is coming up, you can find a beautifully decorated cookie, cake, or donut to celebrate. The little kids in your life (or your dessert-loving sweetheart) will adore these whimsical confections.
The bakery loves creating festive goodies including Easter bunny cakes in the spring, pumpkin bread in the fall, and paczkis for Fat Tuesday in the winter. Even events like the Superbowl and Labor Day are celebrated with their own cookies! Whatever time of year you visit Steenstra’s, you’ll be glad you did.
