18 Best Bakeries in Carlsbad

“Great Italian Pastries and coffee in the morning and perfect Italian sandwiches at lunch. Ken and his family know how to bake!“

“One of my favorites! The breads are the BEST!“

“I love Crumbl cookies so much. This place is amazing. They have the best cookies there. I’m really excited to try today. The Dubai chocolate brownie and I go there all the time with my mom and we always love eating their cookies. Love you, Crumbl❤️“

“Ordered a cake for an office retirement party and it was a hit! Several people asked where it was from. Chocolate cake with raspberry jam and chocolate buttercream, absolutely delightful! Wil definitely be ordering my cakes from here going forward. Ornament was purchased and added separately.“

“The most delicious keto bread!“

“We enjoyed our first time at Paris Baguette! The self service pastry cases were quite fun and it made the process of selecting a pastry low stress.

All three pastries (two fresh from the case, one pre-packaged) were truly delicious. The pastry was crispy and light, the pastry cream was heavenly, and the fruit on top of one pastry was fresh and sweet.

Will for sure be back to try more goods, their cakes looks incredible!“

“I ordered custom cookies from Katefections for a baby shower, and they absolutely nailed it! I sent over a few inspiration photos and they brought the vision to life perfectly. The cookies were not only stunning and perfectly on theme—they were also incredibly delicious. We initially left them wrapped thinking guests would take them home, but once word spread about how good they were, they disappeared quickly :)

The entire process was seamless—communication was easy and clear, and Kate personally delivered the cookies. I wish I had taken a photo of the beautiful, classy box they came in—it was such a lovely touch. These cookies were a total hit: gorgeous, delicious, and truly everything we wanted.“

“The best Bagel and Lox...“

“We really enjoyed our lunch/dinner! Excellent chicken pot pie. Our waitress was Diane and she is top notch! Thank you so much !“

“I've tasted a lot of churros in my life, and I was amazed at how delicious they were. The churros come in two pieces, and they have a thick, satisfying texture without being overly oily. They are served with a rich dark chocolate sauce, but they are also fantastic on their own.“

“Highly recommend checking out themed events at Sweet Rosemary. I attended the Harry Potter Tea and Trivia event with some friends. We had a really enjoyable time. There was a generous amount of food offered for the High tea, four courses total. I’ve attended many high teas and it did not disappoint. The drink offerings were spot on. An assortment of teas, pumpkin juice and of course butter beer. The decorations and music really set the mood. The trivia presenter Alexandria was fantastic. Very personable with great questions. I would highly recommend trying out the next event hosted here.“

“If you're looking for a delightful treat, Nothing Bundt Cakes is the place to go! Their cakes are absolutely delicious and perfect for any occasion, whether it's a birthday, celebration, or just a casual sweet indulgence. The flavors are rich and tempting, and each bite is a little piece of heaven.

On top of the amazing cakes, the customer service is consistently fantastic. I had the pleasure of interacting with Charlotte, who was especially helpful and sweet. Her warmth and attentiveness made the experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend Nothing Bundt Cakes for anyone in search of a tasty dessert and excellent service!“

“The pastry here is incredible! Had the croissant, pain au chocolat, and a baguette. This is comparable to the pastry I've had in France. Outstanding!“

“Loved this little place and the experience brought with it! Latte was made perfectly; mildly sweet with a creamy vanilla finish. Donut melted away in my mouth. Lighting, seating, and cleanliness was perfect for the Carlsbad area. 🩵“

“We just wanted to say a BIG THANK YOU to SusieCakes for making Audrey’s day today. She had just come from a vaccine doctor appointment and I promised she could pick out a special cupcake that I’d planned to pay for with cash. But due to COVID changes, only credit cards are accepted and I’d completely forgotten mine. We went to check the car for a card with no luck, and while out there, the employee came out with Audrey’s cupcake as a ‘gift’ instead. THANK YOU for making my daughter’s day because I was feeling so bad I was going to have to skip her special treat because I didn’t have the right form of payment. We’ll be back for sure! The cupcake was delicious!!“

“Best Italian coffee as well as matcha I have ever had! It is now a regular stop on the way to SD. 🫶CK 🇺🇸“

“As a tea drinker this presentation felt sophisticated and the chamomile strength was delicious and soothing. The freshness and rainbow colors of this bowl complemented the light delicate dressing. The watermelon radish added a pungent spice and with a dollop of hummus was perfectly balanced. Felt light and healthy and was a great vegan option. The music was mellow and the volume matched the mood of the time of day. Will be back again and try more of the not coffee menu.“
