The Flour Basket Bakery Café in Rockville

Home of the patented and trade marked Fluff Muff, you will find everything homemade at The Flour Basket Bakery & Cafe in downtown Rockville. Owner Hollie Wyatt was tired of the dense, dry cake donuts and bland muffins so she created her own luscious treat called the fluff muff—round like a donut but light, airy and full of flavor! This 4,800 sq. foot building is full of shopping opportunities, good fun and great food! There are four themed dining rooms, The Parke County room; Game Room; The Tea for Two for the romantics; and the Gangster Room for private seating.

The first mill was a corn cracker on the creek bank. Later a log building was built in 1823 for sawing wood. Because of fires and improvements there have been four buildings. The fourth building, built in 1870, is still standing and operating today. It is owned by Mike and Karen Roe. They are the fourteenth owners and continue the milling tradition with the help of their family.
