At HOPSCOTCH BAKERY, sink your teeth into an elegant buttery croissant, delight in the grown-up sweetness of a chocolate bouchon, savor the rich creaminess of hand-made dulce de leche ice cream, or simply watch professionally trained pastry chef Mary Oreskovich frost cake layers in the large picture window.

This cheerful bake shop has resurrected the delicate baking traditions of the past using wholesome Colorado-grown ingredients. Deemed by out-of-towners as “definitely worth the drive,” you can visit Hopscotch Bakery in Pueblo’s Union Avenue Historic District, Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.; and Saturdays, 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
