I always come later in the day so the selection is slim. I finally got to try a donut and it was pretty good. Nice bakery.
I ordered a cake for a church member's eighty second birthday. The cake was just absolutely beautiful with pastel pink roses and white daisies. Everyone raved about the custard and raspberry fillings, the moistness of the cake and declared the icing was the best they ever had. My church is in Comstock, and the cakes we have are always from Boonzaaijer's in Kalamazoo. Continental, I've always told them that Janna's cakes are the best, and now they know!
They always do the best in town! The cake is incredible and tastes so delicious every single time. I am never disappointed! Our family orders all our families cakes here. Thanks for always going above and beyond
Stopped in today to grab a Birthday cake. What a pleasant experience from start to finish! They were busy but brought out more help right away. Overheard an employee take a phone call, asking them to hold in the kindest of ways. The young lady who waited on me went out of her way to make sure that I was happy. She even matched the cake frosting! What a great visit with the nicest employees. Got a beautiful (and delicious) cake and found a place with customer service I believed didn't exist anymore.
Wonderful news: As of December 2018 the Continental is under new but familiar ownership!
It's now back in the capable hands of the former owner, a Dutch woman named Janna. She even returned with her original bakers from 20 years ago. Janna is a professional when it comes to creating delicious pastries and running a first class deli shop.
I first started eating here in the early 80's. So I've experienced the changes over the years... I kept frequenting the Continental until it was sold to some locals who seemed to be incapable or uninterested in upholding the excellent quality, which was once the hallmark of this establishment.
After the deli's decline, many of us stopped eating there.
Last week on a lark I visited the deli, and to my delight Janna had returned. The metamorphosis has begun...... back are the flavorful selection of mouthwateringly delicious pastries, back are the smiles and the genuinely cheerful service.
Welcome back Janna!
