Jarosch Bakery is famous for our many varieties of delicious pastries and cakes – especially our chocolate chip coffee cake in Des Plaines, IL.

Flavored coffees generally do not pair well with sweet treats, because they can overpower each other or overwhelm your palate.
Donuts, Cinnamon Buns, Coffee Cakes
Choose a Guatemalan or Columbian blend of coffee for pastries with cinnamon or chocolate flavors. These coffee blends natural contain undertones of warm cinnamon and rich chocolate, which is brought out by the treats.
