Rilling's Bucks County Bakery to close in March

WARMINSTER, Pa. (CBS) – A Philadelphia-area bakery that's been in business for nearly a century will serve its last customers next month. 

Rilling's Bakery in Warminster announced its last day will be March 2. 

Originally located in Philadelphia's Brewerytown neighborhood, the third-generation bakery has been serving a variety of pastries for 88 years. 

The owners said in a Facebook post that it's time for a new chapter and they'll be retiring, but there is a chance they could return "in a different form someday."

Who knows what the future holds? There's a possibility that we might be back in a different form someday," the post said.
