The Wyld Flour bakery in Broseley announced the news on its Facebook page on Thursday.
The bakery said: "Sadly we need to let you know that our little bakery will be closing. The overriding factor is the commercial energy costs which seem to be the downfall of many businesses in this current climate.
"As you no doubt see, it's not through lack of trying - Nick, Christy and Caprice have been forever finding imaginative ways to avoid this outcome and our Saturday girls have worked tirelessly to offer a great service to our wonderful community.
"But sadly we’ve been beaten. It’s been an amazing journey and we are all quite heartbroken to lose our hub where we’ve met so many great people and shared so many stories.
"The café will remain open for a short time so you can still enjoy a bite to eat and a nice hot cuppa so please pop by and support my if you can."
The post continued: "A massive thank you to my wonderful friend Nick who has brought so much energy to Broseley and worked tirelessly, I’m forever grateful to you for managing Wyld Flour with such enthusiasm.
"To the best mother and daughter team I can think of- Caprice and Christy - what generous and kind souls you’ve been - and great friends to Nick. And of course the Saturday girls Hollie, Isabel, Grace, Liv, Ruby and Elinor who’ve been so hardworking and fun."
