37 Best Bakeries in Lexington

“The baklava (both pistachio and walnut/cinnamon) and Dubai chocolate bars are absolutely delicious ! The girl working out front is the sweetest! 100% recommend!“

“OMG Donuts is the best, semi-hidden secret! They have an array of sweets and breakfast foods, and the most delicious drinks. The best part is the staff. Sofia is such a joy! Every time I go in she knows my drink order better than I do 😂. My coworkers and I frequent OMG just about every day, except Mondays, when we mope around waiting for Tuesday for the OMG doors to open again! There hasn’t been a single time that Sofia hasn’t gone above and beyond, had a beautiful smile on her face, and just been so incredibly joyful. It makes a difference in our mornings. Thank you OMG Donuts for my (almost) daily fix of deliciousness and joy! ☺️🍩🧋“

“I had been wanting to visit DV8 for quite some time now, not only for my love of trying out new places, but because of the background of this place. Let me first say, I visited the Broadway location on 1/19/25 and cannot wait to come back. The environment was great including the decor and the staff. Everyone was friendly and helpful. I had the breakfast tacos and took home the chicken salad and it was amazing. I couldn't leave without snagging a couple cups, hoodie, and a sticker. Having a passion for those in recovery (I have 12.5 years myself) I couldn't wait to get myself in this place and now I can't wait to come back!!“

“Yesterday was the first time I had ever visited a Nothing Bundt Cakes. Allison was wonderful. She helped me choose several cakes, told me how the franchise began and told me to try a cake. The cake was delicious! Allison was extremely helpful and professional! I’ll make it a point to stop by to purchase cakes regularly. Thank you for the outstanding experience!“

“The birthday cakes I get there are delicious and beautifully decorated. Highly recommend them. The pastries are also very good!🍪“

“They did an amazing job on my son’s dream cake through the Icing Smiles Program. After a rough year of ups and downs being evaluated and listed for a heart transplant in October at just 5 years old to his Make a Wish Disney trip just a couple weeks back, this amazing cake put the a cherry on top of it all. This was the cake of his dreams and his smile showed it all“

“La Petite Délicat is our go-to spot for French pastries and desserts in Lexington! They also offer signature latte and tea drinks and we absolutely love their macarons! We highly recommend you visit them soon!“

“This lady is amazing! Totally forgot her name. We were in from California and I had read about her shop weeks before going to Kentucky. I brought my cupcakes home for gifts and they totally made the flight and still taste amazing. GREAT customer service and delicious cupcakes. Totally try if you are in Lexington!!!“

“Everything is absolutely delicious!“

“This place is so amazing! All of the pastries are super delicious and they always taste fresh. Staff is super friendly and I love how you get to grab your own items and they have a huge selection most of the time. Definitely Recommend going here. 10/10“

“My daughter has celiac and finding good gluten free cake is often a struggle. Not only were the cupcakes super cute and delicious, ordering and receiving them was an incredibly easy experience! I cannot recommend the product and services highly enough!!“

“Best Taste ❤️🙏🏾🌹Fresh products .. 🪔 Best Bread in Town 🙏🏾🌹“

“We had Grace and Sequel Catery do a small intimate dinner (16) at our home. Grace did an amazing job, the food was outstanding and her set up was beautiful. She even brought lovely fall flowers for the kitchen and dinner table. They left my kitchen pristine and even snuck out quietly while I was busy with my guests. Her desserts were fabulous! Can’t wait to have her back for our next event. Can’t say enough good things!“

“Caramanda's exceeded all expectations! They did an exceptional job on our four wedding cakes, bringing my vision to life with precision and skill. Each cake was fantastic. Our guests raved about the cakes, and it's no surprise – Caramanda's has consistently delivered exceptional quality in every cake I've ordered from them in the past. They're a joy to work with, making the entire process seamless and enjoyable. I wholeheartedly recommend Caramanda's to anyone seeking a talented and reliable cake artist – they truly are the best!“

“Love Gigi’s they are great“

“I had the pleasure of ordering a custom cake for my birthday from The Bourbon Bakery and could not have loved it more! I wanted a black on black iced vanilla heart cake with vintage styling. They gave me everything I was hoping for visually (elegant, goth) AND all of the taste of a great cake was there too. It was DELICIOUS. The cake got lots of compliments; it was a huge hit with me and my guests. Pricing is fair and communication is a breeze. I look forward to ordering from here for any future cake needs!“

“We passed by today and decided to stop in for a treat, but it was too hard to pick just one! 😅 Amazing customer service and delicious baked goods! We’ll definitely be back! 💛“

“This is a bit of an odd review, because it is for pie from Missy's, even though it was purchased elsewhere.

Missy's only offers whole pies via Door Dash, but I realized that Ramsey's sales Missy' s Pie by the slice. There were a few things I wanted to try, so I ordered it from Ramsey's for delivery via Door Dash.

The Chocolate Brownie Pie was good, but very chocolatey, like on the verge of being too chocolatey. I'm not sure I could eat an entire piece in one sitting.

The Combination Pie was amazing. The peanut butter compliments the brownie pie very well, and gives it much needed balance.

The Mayday Pie was a bit to heavy on the pecans for my preference, leaving it more crumbly than I like. I would have preferred more chocolate/filling and fewer nuts, but it was still good.

I can easily imagine ordering a full Combination Pie for an event of gathreing.“

“Flavor, ambiance and service all were great!“

“Had doctor Appointment in Lexington, found shop on Google. All kinds of sweets, owner was really nice, will go back when in town.“

“Phenomenal experience. Child - friendly (right down to a kids toilet in the family bathroom), with great food. Highly recommend.“

“The best cookies/cakes and sweetest staff! Highly recommend and will continue using them for future events 🥰“

“Stopped in to Julietta Market hoping for something yummy and found this place. The guava blondie and smores dessert were too good!! The food was amazing too. Best fried green plantains I've had.“

“We have found a new Lexington favorite! These are some of the best soft pretzels we've ever had - and we've had many. After stopping by to try one, we returned the next day to get more to have on our road trip. We enjoyed talking to the owner both days, too.“

“I took my daughters out to Parlor as a treat, we were first timers here. There is meter parking on the side of the building and a small strip of free parking in the back, parking was pretty good for the area.
The 4 of us each got a donut, and the 4 of us have different reviews.
Service was phenomenal, the staff was so friendly and patient.
As for the food, we got the vegan option of their donuts and they come gluten free which was nice because i needed mine to be both gluten free and vegan.
I personally wasnt a fan, but understand i am a plain jane kinda gal, and these are fancy gourmet donuts. It was great for what its supposed to be, but not for me preference wise.
My daughter however LOVED it. Shes more of a classy gal, she loves fancy places and macarons lol so this was right up her alley.
They are on the more expensive side, but what isn't these days? Also, again, i would consider these gourmet donuts. Think along the realm of crumble cookie in donut form with a more hipster vide to it.
Give them a try.“

“Flavor, ambiance and service all were great!“

“Heard of this place through a friend and I'm glad I tried them for myself because they are hands down the best doughnuts I've ever had. If you're ever in the area do yourself a favor and try them. Make sure you get there early they don't last long.“
