"Norma’s is loved for so many things; its custom cakes, Central American pastries, and other sweets, the imported market goods, prepared meats, and its guava cream cheese king cake during Carnival. While you’re there stocking up, grab one of the famous Cuban sandwiches." - Eater Staff, Clair Lorell

We had the pleasure of stopping by Norma's bakery when traveling through CO Springs and we can't say enough great things about this bakery!! This is a family run bakery and the customer service and friendliness went above and beyond! Everyone is so kind and welcoming. They answered all our questions and gave us yummy tastings! Don't get me started abut the food!! Everything was top notch, fresh and warm! I have never had a better pastry! They also have empanadas if you want something savory to go along with your sweet! 10/10!! Must try!

I've seen this bakery on Tik Tok and the lady said it was delicious, so I had to try it! We had tres leches cake slice with flan and omg it was the best thing I've ever eaten! I'm actually thinking of ordering a whole cake for birthdays. This one was 8$ for a slice, a bit pricey but so worth it! We then got some sweet desserts and breads and again they were so good and fresh. The palmier was the best one I've ever had. They usually get stale after a couple hours, but this one was good even two days later, and so full of sugar! The prices for the pastries were actually very affordable! I just can't wait to come back to try something else!

This bakery is great. If you love tres Leches your in for a treat. Also they have fresh tamales which is next on my list to buy. Tried these ginger maple pig looking pastries and I am now addicted.

What a wonderful hidden gem! Everything we had was absolutely phenomenal but I have to say the tamales... Top notch! Flavorful and packed with chicken and jalapenos. The crepe cake was really good and unique. Everything was the perfect sweetness. Not overly sweet which is amazing.

Very friendly people work here. My wife loves tres leches cake and coffee and I found out Norma's Bakery makes a Mocha-flavored Tres Leches Cake. So I got one for her birthday and we LOVED IT!! It was so beautifully made, but the pictures do the taste no justice. The cake is so delightful, and if you're not a coffee fan, the mocha taste is subtle. I'm absolutely going to reorder their tres leches cakes to show my family and friends. I give my highest recommendation. Thank you, Norma's!

Heard about Norma’s Bakery from the local news so my wife and I decided to go visit. Glad we did. Super friendly and knowledgeable staff with a large variety of Mexican and some European desserts. We bought a variety of food items all of which were very good and the desserts are delicious! Stop by Norma’s Bakery and treat yourself to some homemade food and desserts. We did and we'll be back for more. Thanks!

Heard about this place on 11/14/24 and thought I'd give it a try. The last time I had authentic Mexican bread (pan dulce or con has) was when I went to visit my 105 yo grandmother in 2012. I got some bread and tamales. HOLY CANOLE! This place is the real deal! DELICIOUS! It will be my go-to when I think of my gramma who has since passed. Give it a try!

I had my son's bday cake done and it was great. The service was top notch. They were prompt and patient with responding yo all my questions. The price was reasonable. The place was clean and smelt great like fresh pastry you know the way a bakery should small. They did a great job creating what I sent. The cake tasted great and even though there was coloring u could not tell from the taste of the icing. The layers were moist and melted in my mouth. I will most surely be back and I highly recommend.

Norma's Bakery is a small neighborhood bakery on the corner of Academy and Maizeland. It's new enough that it doesn't have a sign, yet. It's tucked in the corner between the Schlotzsky's and CFMAF Martial Arts & Fitness, closer to the martial art studio. I picked up the container of meringue cookies (about $5), because I think they're a pain to make, so I'm happy to buy them and support a small business! There were two kinds and were pretty awesome! A friend of mine picked up a container of mixed cookies (about $5) and gave some to me. I liked the happy face cookies, because they're so cute and happy! My hubby said that the jam for the happy face stuck to his teeth a little. There were some beautiful cakes available and even slices of the beautiful cakes! That's a great reason to go back later! Best wishes to you!

Moved to Springs from Manhattan NY last year, have been looking since for authentic cannoli, Normas cannolis are so close they might as well have come from Little Italy, if you are reading this and not eating a Normas cannoli or driving to get one you are in the wrong! Regards.

Tried the berry crepe cake and concha and they were very good! They are so friendly and helpful. I can't wait to go back to try the other items they offer.

Soooooo happy I came across this bakery!!! Norma is just as sweet as the items in her bakery that fill the shop with the most amazing smells. Cannot wait to spoil my friends and family this holiday with all of what she has!

This place isn't too easy to find as there is no sign on the facade of the building - but if you look near Schlotzky's and see A Matter of Hacks, it is to the right. Norma is a beautiful soul. I have only had a brief interaction with her when I went into her bakery - but it is obvious and you feel like you just got adopted into her family. The pastries are delicious. We tried an assortment of things from the conchas to the strudel cake and many things in between and so far every taste has been a joy. Textures were light, airy, and perfect in everything I tried. Things are not overly sweet and baked to perfection. I can't wait to try the cookies - which I completely missed as I was filling a tray with goodies. Your tastebuds will be happy you stopped by - and a hug from Norma will make your day brighter. This place is a treasure.

We live in Falcon and we're looking for Flan....Norma was the recommendation.....so we stopped in....its worth the find (right next to the martial arts)....Norma and her husband were fantastic. It was so nice to be greeted enthusiasticly by them. Norma thanked us with hugs...oh my goodness ....it was so cute and grandmotherly...we loved it. We did get flan, and chocolate cake and por empanadas and pastries and cookies. The price for that haul was very reasonable. She even has a rewards program. She also gave my husband a free fresh pineapple drink and mine was fresh hibiscus..... delicious.....now that we are properly stuffed with empanadas, flan and cake..... tomorrow we dine on the remaining pastries. Highly recommend you visit this gem of a place and sample the wares....you will not be disappointed and Norma WILL removed you on your next visit!

We stopped here to grab some pastries to bring to a friends house for a BBQ. The pastries were so fresh and delicious. We left some of them with our friends and told them about Norma's bakery. Our friend texted me later tonight to tell me she was eating the things we brought and they were wonderful. Norma came out and hugged us while we were there. She was so kind and helpful. Very reasonably priced. We'll definitely be back!

Over priced. Empanadas had a sweet breading (?!) and they were 75% breading with a tiny portion of meat inside.

Our most favorite find! Norma is a gem! Sweet at her pastries. So many varieties savory and sweet, ice creams and drinks too. So delicious and incredibly priced.

Like going to Nana and Tata's kitchen. Fresh, homemade, affordable and delicious! The owners are very nice and welcoming. The wife reminded me of my mom and she even hugged me on my way out. Never met them in my life, but they made a customer for life and now their family, even if they don't know it. Go get you some !

Thank you for the wonderful pastries! You are lucky I am still full from my late lunch, otherwise I would have picked everything!

We took home a bunch of pastries and breads and two chicken empanadas that were so good they were mostly eaten by the time we got home! Everything is absolutely delicious and I cannot recommend them enough. Norma literally came out and thanked us for supporting her small business. Everything about her little bakery was warm, cozy, and incredibly welcoming and friendly. Amazing food and amazing people! Nos llevamos a casa un montón de pasteles y panes y dos empanadas de pollo que estaban tan buenas que ya se las habían comido casi todas cuando llegamos a casa! Todo es absolutamente delicioso y no puedo recomendarlos lo suficiente! Norma salió y nos dio las gracias por apoyar su pequeño negocio. Todo sobre su pequeña panadería era acogedor y amable. ¡Comida increíble y gente increíble!

I bought different pastries and two cake slices to get a good sample of their offerings. So far, so good. A young male helped with recommendations per their best sellers. He was friendly and made great suggestions per what I have tried so far. I will definitely be back!

My family and I really enjoyed everything we purchased! The gentleman who helped us was kind enough to give my little girl a free item. The slices of cake we purchased were very tasty. We will definitely be back.

Small mom-and-pop bakery. The people there were super nice. I tried the Tiramisu Cake slice and it was super delicious. I also tried a bovarian cream empanada and it was super soft and delicious. I was really excited to see they made kolaches. The sausage was super flavorful and delicious. I can't wait to go back and try more things!

Norma's has been mentioned multiple times on a Colorado Springs food blog. I finally had the chance to stop by last week and it was wonderful. The space is clean and organized. I had a hard time making choices, other than the Crepe Cake which was recommended multiple times on the blog. It is unusual and very tasty. I also got a cinnamon roll and some cannoli pastries for my mother-in-law. She was a bit surprised an Italian pastry could be found in a Panaderia. The cannoli(s) were spot on and my MIL enjoyed them tremendously! We discussed that most nationalities have a form of meat pie, fried dessert, dumpling etc. I didn't find it odd at all. A good baker can really make anything. And Norma Canales is one of those bakers! The flakey pastries flaked, the pastries with substance were consistent without being "stodgy", and the spicing and flavoring were spot on for everything I tasted. Eder helped us out. He was a very nice young man. Besides the pastries they have flan and tamales. Both of which I will be going back for the next time. Yum!
