Sounds yummy!! If I am ever near Corsicana I will make it a point to stop by! Thanks ;)
I normally don't like fruitcakes, but I do like all the other good stuff, i.e. baked breads, pastries..
Hey, I think I read somewhere that they were going to open one around here in Waco. Any truth to that? I have never tried the fruitcake. Is it good? Should I?
Hi Wendy! Yes, there will be a Collin Street Bakery in Waco - soon! It is on Interstate 35 at State Highway 31. They are also planning to open a fourth store on Interstate 20 near Canton in the Fall of '09.
I personally don't eat fruitcake - I love everything else they bake! Cookies - pastries (they do offer free samples of cookies - so you can try before you buy). The building appears to be a replica of the newest store in Corsicana. It is beautiful! Enjoy when it opens!
Renee - Very good information for your local community. You even made the fruit cake sound appetizing. All the best.
Oh my gosh! That whole neighborhood must smell totally amazing!
It is a treat! If you are passing through Corsicana, please stop by and try a sample!
Renee, Our daughter graduated from UNT and I can't tell you how many times we took that trip from Spring to Denton and I would see the sign for Collins Bakery. I always wanted to stop but never had the time. It sounds wonderful.
Hi Renee ~ I just have to say - the title of the post gave me a good chuckle! Wonderful that they have been in business for so many years. Sounds delicious!
