New bakery coming to Citrus Heights

By Sara Beth Williams–
A new bakery is coming to Citrus Heights in a newly renovated shopping center.

Nothing Bundt Cakes is planning to fill a vacant location in the Sunrise Village shopping center, according to leasing materials from Merlone Geier. Site plans show the bakery occupying a vacant space in the same building as Little Caesars. The 2000-square-foot space is the largest of the three spaces in the building. The bakery could open in late fall, depending on permitting and the timeframe of construction, according to the Sacramento Business Journal.

Since the revitalization of the shopping center at the corner of Madison Avenue and Sunrise Boulevard, the plaza has seen multiple new tenants, including Club Studio Fitness, which opened in September 2024, and Amazon Fresh, which opened in November 2024. Previously, Joann occupied the building that is now Amazon Fresh.

Recently, Grocery Outlet submitted plans to the city of Citrus Heights to fill a vacant building that was once a former Rite Aid. Grocery Outlet’s name is not yet listed in the leasing site plan.

Nothing Bundt Cakes calls itself the “Number 1 specialty cake company in the U.S.” according to the company’s website. The first Nothing Bundt Cakes bakery opened in Las Vegas, Nevada, in 1997. The chain has more than 600 locations, including five other shops in the Sacramento region. A Citrus Heights location is not yet listed on the bakery’s website.
