I am looking for a place similar to Solvang CA (Solvang is Danish themed) except German in atmosphere. Basically, I am looking for German cafes/restaurants, German bakeries and made in Germany gifts.

There is a town in Michigan called Frankenmuth that is German themed. My mom and I went there a couple times when I was in middle school and high school. We had a lot of fun there. Great shopping, good German restaurants, and it has a big Christmas themed shop.

Here in MO there is a town called Hermann that boasts to be an authentic German town... I plan on checking it out in September for the Oktoberfest.
I'm from Milwaukee and must warn you Germantown and New Berlin are just regular US towns, our state was just founded by German settlers and that is why all the towns have German names...

Hermann Missouri. It was settled by German immigrants in the late 1800s and has some of the finest German architecture and dining anywhere. They also boast German wineries as well.

Yep, Frankenmuth, Michigan. Check out the link below. Frankenmuth has been Michigan's top tourist destination for as long as I can remember.

Milwaukee, Berlin, and Germantown - all in Wisconsin. I'm sure there's more, but with names like Berlin, New Berlin, and Germantown that's a pretty good indicator of what you are going to get.
