The holiday season has come to an end, but that doesn't mean you have to stop eating sweets! Pastries should be an all-year-round thing, and these three bakeries in Kansas City are here to prove it.
No matter the pastry you crave the most (I could always go for a chocolate croissant or cheese Danish), I can guarantee you'll love what these local places are serving up. Enjoy!
