  • City Bakery is one of the first Sheboygan bakeries constructed by early European immigrants to Wisconsin. They still use the same unique, old-world approach to the "Hard Roll" that Sheboygan has become famous for. The old-world method is a four hour fermentation to make a sweet, tangy, and delicious final product. Plus they make other amazing bakery treats! Check it out.

    I used to service towels here. This owner deserves a lot of credit, he works his ass off from the crack of dawn, every single day…Keep it up!

    I know this sounds stupid, but I SERIOUSLY miss these. I grew up with “brat fry’s” at Piggly Wiggly and everything coming on a Sheboygan Roll. I’m both salivating and teary-eyed thinking about it.

    I currently work here.. few hours a week. I have probably worked in 4 or 5 bakeries in my long life. In every other bakery I have worked at, the breads and rolls produced have never been touched my a human hand. Everything is automated. Not at City Bakery. These rolls are a work of an Artisan. Everything is hand made. Rick and his wife work tirelessly to create the best breads and rolls you can eat. I had NO idea there were that many different fresh breads ever.

      When I went there on vacation I got that feeling. It was all really good

      @dbzsuperfan711 absolutely. I LOVE the fact all the bread is fresh baked day of sale. The bakers there have been doing their stuff for 40 and 50 years. That says a lot! Nobody bakes on a hearth. No body, but they do!

    I love a hard roll with my chili. It is great for ripping up and grabbing a nice scoop.

    Best hard rolls in the world..
    Born in Sheboygan in the mid '60s and lived there till 2001...
    Now I am in Southwest Missouri and I have never found hard rolls like City Bakery in any of my travels.

    I’m excited, I’ll be going there this weekend. My dad grew up in Milwaukee, and when we visited grandma, we would always get plenty of hard rolls there. Now you can’t find them in Milwaukee. I live in Chicago, and no one here knows what you are talking about.

    Do a video on Cardinali's in KEnosha. Founded in 1915, best Italian bread anywhere in the US in my opinion.

    I worked there summer of 66, just out of high school. Made buck fifty an hour time and a half after 44 hours, usually 75 to 80 hours per week, thought I was rich. I found humor in when he mentioned 200 to 900 do. A day. Sunday night the slowest of the week we did close to 2000 dz. And it increased every night to Friday night when we hit 6-7000 dz. True story no bs. Fritz owed it then, just an old hard working German.

      @Venture Wisconsin for an FYI I spent the rest of my working days in the baking industry, ending up being certified as a master baker. I still look back and fondly remember City Bakery.
      Thanks for the CZcams.

      @royalanethridge333 - I've never seen Rick use a recipe for the Hard Rolls. The only recipe I've seen used there was the one for Orange,Pecan Cranberry muffins. Which by the way, the dissappear from the showcase 3 hours ( give or take) after they are put in the showcase.
