A good bakery isn’t too difficult to find, especially in Missouri. However, most of the old-school bakeries, while known and beloved in their neighborhoods, remain a hidden gem for those not in the neighborhood.

Next time your sweet tooth is aching, head to this corner bakery that makes some of the best Italian pastries and bread you’ll ever taste.
Tucked on a corner of Marconi Avenue in St. Louis, Vitale’s Bakery has been satisfying Missourians’ sweet tooth since 1976.
