Congratulations to Neat-O’s Bake Shoppe, located in Baraboo, WI, on being named the 2019 Bakery Operation of the Year by the Wisconsin Bakers Association (WBA). The award was presented on Monday, March 11th, 2019 during the WBA’s Awards & Appetizers Networking Evening in Milwaukee, WI. This year’s awards ceremony was held in conjunction with the Midwest Foodservice Expo.
Four Wisconsin bakeries were nominated for the 2019 Bakery Operation of the Year. Past winners of this award voted to determine this year’s winner. The recipient of the Bakery Operation of the Year award remained a secret until the moment the name of the bakery was revealed. Tony and Amanda Nieto, owners of Neat-O’s Bake Shoppe and members of the association, were in attendance to accept the award.
Tony and Amanda were both surprised and thrilled to accept the award on behalf of their bakery and staff. In addition to the Bakery Operation of the Year award, Neat-O’s Bake Shoppe also claimed Best of Show and People’s Choice in the Extreme Wedding Cake Challenge - Non-Fondant competition, Wisconsin’s Best Buttercream Cut-Out Cookie, three best of show awards for their donut entries plus additional honors for pie and decorated cut-out cookies.
The Bakery Operation of the Year award was created back in 2001 to recognize an outstanding bakery operation annually. This year’s Bakery Operation of the Year award was sponsored by Valley Cooperative Association. The Nietos received a permanent trophy to display in their bakery.
