Question: Cake Order

Chuck B. asked, "What's the best place in Yreka to order a cake?"

I've purchased several birthday and anniversary cakes from Raley's Bakery, inside the Raley's Store at the south of Yreka. You'll find decorated sheet cakes as well as a few specialty items. The address is 1842 Fort Jones Road, Yreka, CA and the phone number is (530) 842-4307. The store hours are 6 am to 10 pm.

A call to the bakery confirmed that they do need at least 24 hours notice for special orders. Prices (right now) are: 1/4 sheet, $14.99; 1/4 sheet with filling, $19.99; 1/2 sheet, $19.99; and 1/2 sheet with filling is $27.99.

For a super special occasion where you'd like something a little different, there are several online and out-of-town specialty stores (like Dean & Deluca at www.deandeluca.com) with overnight shipping in the $200 range... but if you're at the bike camp you may have to talk someone into receiving the shipment for you and the logistics may make that plan too much trouble.

Enjoy!
