8 Best Bakeries near Westbrook

“I am gluten free, my husband is not, and we both love Still Delicious, which is a dedicated GF bakery in Westbrook, CT. It offers plenty of dairy free and vegan options as well. Mark is the owner and a pleasure to deal with. He is passionate about what he does and always takes the time to discuss what he makes and offers suggestions. I don't think there is anything I haven't tried there. My absolute favorites are the muffins (all varieties), the rustica baguettes, the whoopie pies, the half cookie/brownies and the mini loafs (all varieties). My husband will no longer eat regular muffins and panics when we don't have any Still Delicious muffins left in our freezer. We basically buy big batches and freeze them so we always have them on hand. He also can't get enough of the whoopie pies. That's his favorite dessert. There is always plenty of delicious baked goods available at Still Delicious but since it's a small bakery, I like pre-ordering since I always buy bigger quantities. This is not a sit down place but a typical bakery where you order and take out. Absolutely recommend trying it out! You will be hooked.“

“I love this Pepperidge Farm store. It is not very big, but it is always fun to come down here and explore all the things they have, not just their signature goldfish, but also things like Tim Tams and the Chessmen Butter Cookies (my personal favorite. It is just a cool experience. I only really go once a year since I don’t live anywhere near by (4+ hours), but when I do I enjoy coming, and the staff is always really friendly.“

“First, I don't normally like chocolate flourless cake. It tends to be dense and dry so not worth the calories. But this ...this cake...is everything. It's smooth and silky...unless you're allergic, you have to eat this. Your mouth will thank you! The cheesecake is light and whippy, and not too sweet, and the fruit are fresh and happy just sitting there on top with powdered sugar. You must eat have it!!“

“We have been buying cakes and cookies from The Sweet Baker for years and keep coming back. Not only are the baked goods fresh, delicious, and made with high-quality ingredients, she will work with you to customize the order so that it is special and unique. I have included pictures of our most recent Five Nights at Freddy’s cake, penguin cupcakes, and cookies painted to be just like my husband’s 1978 Ford truck. The people who went to his party last year are still talking about those cookies! You won’t be disappointed!“

“I’ve now ordered for 2 business events and again for Thanksgiving from here (not to mention some trips in between). My customers were blown away by the attention to detail on the sugar cookies for both events and we have not had a single item as a family we wouldn’t recommend (a few favorites- morning glory muffin, cinnamon sugar donut, pumpkin cheesecake). Amazing service, amazing desserts!“

“I had a great time at the Rye Sourdough baking class! I am not a stranger to sourdough but I am more of a cook and less of a baker, meaning I’ve been winging it with bread baking and wondering why my bread doesn’t come out perfectly. I learned so much at the class about temperature - of the oven, the dough and the water - and how important it is to a successful loaf of rye bread. Stefanie is a great teacher and we left with three perfect loaves of bread. I will definitely be back!“

“Some of the best bread I have had...comparable to Hungry Ghost in Northampton and Standard Bakery in Portland ME. Not just bread, great scones, cookies and sweet rolls. We haven't had the pastas and other things but they really do use the best ingredients and take their time with their yeast and sourdough breads. A true hidden gem.“

“Sweet little dessert shop with pastry and cakes to eat in or takeout. Coffee available. Excellent German specialties like strudel, stollen and Liebküchen. Small counter with only 3 stools though. We stopped by after lunch out at Fresh Salt.“
