When they opened in 1953 Lester and Cele Kirschbaum didn't know their little shop would last for generations. Nor did they know the impact their sweet treats and specialty breads would have on the residents of Suburban Chicago. Every Kirschbaum has encountered people across the country, from South Carolina to Arizona, who recite their favorite memory of the store or describe in detail their favorite bakery treat.
It has etched a place in the hearts and taste buds of those who have experienced their sweet and buttery flavors. Spending their first year of business as a Bakery and Deli on Hillgrove Avenue in LaGrange IL, Cele made potato salads and cole slaw from scratch, while Lester baked goods and stocked the store; their son Bob did his part by running the register.
