Quality Bakery in Dodgeville, Wisconsin, is closing after 97 years, ending a family legacy that began in 1920.
Owner Courtney Mallon, great-granddaughter of founder Laverne Crubaugh, cited rising costs and personal loss, including her father’s death in 2024, as reasons for the closure.
Since the announcement, customers have lined up as early as 3:15 a.m., selling out signature pastries like Bismarcks and Long Johns within hours.
The building, originally a bank in 1883, has served as a bakery since 1920.
Mallon, who returned in 2018, worked grueling hours and sometimes skipped pay to keep the business running.
The final day of operation is Saturday.
