Jacobs Lefse Bakeri & Gifts

Took a drive over to Osakis today to check out some local merchants. First stop, of course, was Jacobs Lefse Bakeri & Gifts. We see the large billboard on Interstate 94, just outside Alexandria , urging us to visit, but this was our first time stopping in. The retail gift shop is small, but jam packed with great Scandinavian gift items….including jams…we purchased lingonberry. Then we purchased a tiny Norwegian coffee cup style mug for our grandson, then a box of lemon gluten free scone mix for our daughter and finally we bought lefse, of course. We are still too full to sample it, as we stopped by AJ’s Diner across the street for lunch, but my 65 years of eating lefse tells me this stuff is going to be great. We plan on buying more for holiday dinners so I asked the delightful Norwegian princess working behind the store counter if their lefse is okay after freezing. She replied, “It freezes for up to 6 months , and it is not okay, it is GOOOD!”

They are CLOSED thru March. I wish google was updated with this information to have saved the time on the detour!

I loved the lefsa. We bought some stuff from the lady who owns it. Worth stoping by!!!!

Cute items from scandinavia, some sale items, best items were the almond cookies and the lefse, we bought the 'irregular rounds' for the bargain.

Awesome Lefse & Norwegian Merchandise

It's a charming establishment that's well worth a visit. Wonderful lefse smells filled the quaint shop as we browsed.

This is my 3rd yr of ordering Jacob's Lefsa & cookies too. They are so REAL, DELICIOUS & fresh!! It's deliveredquickly to MT & soenjoyed.

When you enterJacob’s Lefse you are greeted with the aroma of freshly made lefse and a smile from the staff. You are promptly helped order lefse for shipping or can choose your own from a refrigerated case in the store.Lefse is not the only delicacy you can purchase. Their butter cookies melt in your mouth & they have numerous baked goods and a variety of delicious jams.The store is pleasantly decorated with many other Scandinavian items you can purchase. Browsing there is such a delightful experience. I’ve given many well-received gifts from Jacob’s Lefse.The quality of everything is top notch. My relatives from Montana to Maine give it a big thumbs up & so do I , a 100% Norwegian farm girl from North Dakota. ❤️

Fun Norwegian & Swedish gifts & decor, as well as snacks. The lefse is delicious!
