Bad Bakers<\/p>\n

Bad Bakers, a locally based doughnut shop<\/a> with multiple outlets, opened in West Sacramento on April 26 at 2050 Town Center Plaza #B170. The business announced the opening on its social media<\/a> last week.<\/p>\n

Another social media post on the day of the opening<\/a> showed a large crowd waiting out front, and customers showing off their purchases.<\/p>\n

With this opening, Bad Bakers has six locations peppered across the region, in Sacramento, Folsom, Roseville, Elk Grove and now West Sacramento.<\/p>\n

The company\u2019s website shows ones coming in Citrus Heights and Woodland, and it is actively hiring for both locations. It also has a location in Santa Ana.<\/p>\n

Bad Bakers offers a whimsical selection of fried cake and raised doughnuts with playful names such as Unicorn Clouds (glazed with sprinkles) and Movie Time (glazed with chocolate malt and popcorn).<\/p>\n

It also makes buttery, Filipino-style Spanish rolls, including sweet ones called Staxx and savory, stuffed Czech-style kolaches. On Fridays and Saturdays it makes an ube roll, made with the purple Filipino tuber.<\/p>\n

Bad Bakers was one of the more popular selections in the newsroom in The Bee\u2019s roundup of notable doughnut shops<\/a> in the Sacramento area.<\/p>\n
