Charlie's Gourmet Pastries, Curry Ford Rd

I grabbed a cinnamon roll at this bakery on Curry Ford and Michigan/Crystal Lake two Saturday's ago. The cross street starts as Michigan off I-4 then turns into Crystal Lake if I am not mistaken. They said that they have been in business for 37 years, I think. They have a huge selection of pastries, cakes, danish, pies, cookies, cheese cakes, etc. My roll was ok and cost $2. I can't even begin to describe the selection. It's a wide swath of cultures. I would expect the quality to be more Main Street than gourmet or Champs Elysee. See if I'm wrong. 37 years in business says otherwise. I'm not a sweets guy, so, it ain't up to me.
