Summer is almost here. It’s the perfect time for outdoor activities such as swimming, hiking, and going to the beach to bask in the sun. Besides these activities, picnics are another great way to spend summer days outdoors. They’re a great way to spend time with special people and create great memories. Want to make your picnics extra memorable?

Food is a must-have. However, picnic foods are delicate. You certainly won’t want to carry foods that can get spoiled due to the warm weather or lead to more serious problems like food poisoning. Ideally, you will want to carry foods that can survive the outdoors, such as pickled vegetables, fresh fruits, and pasta salads. And if you’re craving sweet treats, you can carry portable treats from the best bakeries that don’t require refrigeration. Uncertain what treats you should carry for your picnic? Here’s a list of some of our favorites.

1. Danish Kringles

When it comes to baked treats, few things come close to the Danish kringle. From fruity flavors such as apple and apricot to nutty ones such as pecan and almond, we have a wide variety of flavors to appeal to every taste bud. Danish kringles are baked with love using the finest ingredients and a family recipe passed down over four generations. It’s the perfect treat to turn your picnic food from mundane to memorable.

2. Cookies

Picnics don’t feel quite the same without cookies, do they? Cookie flavors such as chocolate chip are simply a must-have picnic treat. Cookies are great because they are quick and easy to bake. But if you’re hard-pressed for time, you can drop by our bakery and choose from a wide selection of cookies. Baked to perfection, you are guaranteed to experience delight in every bite.

3. Cakes

The thought of carrying a picnic cake can be overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be. While lots of cakes need to be refrigerated, there are several that don’t require refrigeration. Cakes such as simple vanilla cakes can last for up to five days at room temperature without refrigeration. But if you can’t resist the appeal of a freshly baked cake with frosting, visit the bakery on the day of your picnic and choose from a wide selection of cakes.
