Crème Bakery

Crème Bakery is an Asian-inspired bakery on 28th Street in Des Moines, known for cupcakes, milk bread loaves, buns and rolls, with cakes and cookies alongside classic Midwestern bakery items. The menu also includes globally inspired flavors, and cupcakes come in regular, gluten-free, vegan and vegan gluten-free versions, sold by the dozen.

Cupcakes can be ordered online, including mini sizes, and gift cards are available. The shop is open Tuesday through Thursday from mid-afternoon until 10 PM, and Friday and Saturday until midnight, and it is closed on Sundays and Mondays. The bakery is not allergy-friendly, since everything is made in a shared facility, so people with serious allergies should ask first.
