15 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!“

“Amazing quality and delicious products.“

“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❤️“

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

“Kate created an absolutely lovely custom graduation cake for my sister, personalizing every preferred detail perfectly! She was beyond thrilled with this surprise, and we agreed it was the most beautiful and delicious cake we'd ever had! THANK YOU! Highly recommend!“

“The desserts were absolutely delicious and the perfect way to end the meal. Each bite was fresh and indulgent, with rich flavors that lingered pleasantly on the palate. The textures were beautifully balanced—creamy, soft, and slightly crisp in all the right places—and the aroma was inviting and sweet without being overpowering. They were also elegantly presented, making them as visually appealing as they were satisfying to eat.

I also tried the iced strawberry matcha latte, and it was excellent—smooth, creamy, and perfectly balanced without being overly sweet. The earthy aroma of the matcha was refreshing, and the drink had a silky texture with a gentle froth on top. It was cool and invigorating, with just the right depth of flavor to complement the desserts.

The restrooms were clean and well-maintained, which added to the overall positive experience. Overall, everything exceeded my expectations, and I would definitely come back to enjoy the desserts and drinks again. Highly recommend!“

“The best Bagel and Lox...“

“Nicole is the sweetest soul! She helped me pick the perfect decorations for my sister’s birthday and went above and beyond. I don’t think she knew how much I needed the kindness in that moment, I went back to my car and teared up. Thanks Nicole!“

“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.“

“We just had the sweetest tea party birthday party for our 12 year old daughter here. Everything went flawless and the food and desserts were delicious. Christine is so thoughtful and such a gracious host. The price was more reasonable than I expected. The mani/pedis we got the girls beforehand were more expensive! We'll definitely be back.“

“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 🇺🇸“

““The Carlsbad” comes exactly as shown. The eggs were poached perfectly and seasoned with an everything bagel type seasoning, same on the avocado, which was really good. The tater tots were not greasy or overcooked. The multigrain sourdough was great with butter (you can choose jam or hummus as well). The açaí bowl was really good and the fruit was fresh. We left off the cacao nibs, toasted coconut, chia seeds and hemp.“
