SACRAMENTO – Today Assemblyman Josh Hoover (R-Folsom) proudly announced that BJ Cinnamon has been selected as the Small Business of the Month for July 2025 in the 7th Assembly District.
Owned and operated by Sochanthoeun To and Vearady Chea since 2019, BJ Cinnamon has become a cherished local favorite in Folsom and a must-visit destination for visitors from across the region. Sochanthoeun, a former software engineer, and his wife Vearady transitioned into the bakery industry more than 20 years ago and have since built a thriving family business rooted in quality, consistency, and hospitality.
BJ Cinnamon is nationally recognized for its excellence—recently voted one of the best donut shops in the country by Yelp. The bakery is known for its freshly made items prepared daily, including signature hot cinnamon rolls, handmade donuts straight from the fryer, croissant breakfast sandwiches, and locally roasted coffee. Located at 402 E Bidwell Street in Folsom, BJ Cinnamon continues to draw long lines on weekends, attracting loyal customers from Folsom, Sacramento, El Dorado Hills, and Placerville.
“BJ Cinnamon is a perfect example of how small businesses enrich our communities,” said Assemblyman Hoover. “Sochanthoeun and Vearady have created more than just a bakery—they’ve built a beloved neighborhood institution and a gathering place for families and visitors alike. It’s also one of my own family’s favorite spots to grab donuts!”
Assemblyman Hoover is proud to recognize BJ Cinnamon as the July 2025 Small Business of the Month and thanks them for their continued contributions to the 7th Assembly District.
Josh Hoover represents Assembly District 7, which includes the cities of Citrus Heights, Folsom, and Rancho Cordova and the unincorporated communities of Carmichael, Fair Oaks, Foothill Farms, Gold River, Mather, McClellan Park, North Highlands, Orangevale, and Rosemont.
