About this business

History The Jaarsma Bakery in Pella, Iowa has been offering delicious "Dutch Treats" since 1889, when it was founded by Harmon Jaarsma who used recipes he brought over as an immigrant from Holland.

We live 100 miles away from Jaarsma's but we make the road trip 5-6 times a year to stock our cupboards and freezer with the luscious flakey pastries. When we visit Wisconsin, our friends give us a list of Jaarsma's goods to bring to them. Our top favorites are: coffee cakes (lots of flavors), flakey almond cookies, Dutch letters, and rich homemade egg noodles! Additionally, the whole town square is lined with other speciality and delicacy shops. Great bakery in a great little town!

Just received our first order from Jaarsma, halfway across the country. So good! Arrived fresh and delicious. So thrilled to find a source for the Dutch butter letters I remember as a child. Thank you!
