50 Best Bakeries near Norwood

“I will never stop telling people that this place has the best donuts you'll ever eat in your entire life. I'm so dead serious. Their brioche donuts have the texture of little heavenly pillows and the flavors are out of this world.“

“My grilfriend and I went to the Factory 52 location Sunday afternoon. All 3 of the cupcakes were sooo good. We got red velvet, birthday cake and chocolate chip cookie dough. I am completely shocked that anyone would give this place less than 5 stars. Can’t wait to go back and try the other flavors!!“

“This is a must visit bakery! The product is simply amazing and it is clear that the team here takes great pride in it (as they deservedly should). Every time I visit the area I make it a point to stop here - even if it is out of my way - as I am ALWAYS delighted with the tasty treats. You should too.“

“I ordered a Caramel Pound Cake for my Hubby’s birthday. We celebrated at Longhorn and everyone in the restaurant wanted a slice of that cake! It was moist, buttery, and delicious! We also had chocolate strawberries, and snickers strawberries. The strawberries were sweet, and we really enjoyed them. Our guest was amazed at the taste of all the desserts. I encourage anyone who needs a delicious dessert to order from Shanassweettreats. You will be happy you did! My Dad is 91 years old, he wants a Blackberry Cobbler. That’s my next order!!“

“Our wedding cake tasted incredible and was loved by all! The buttercream icing is chef’s kiss! LaDawn made the process so easy and delivery was prompt on the wedding day. Will be recommending to friends and back for future orders☺️“

“I've had the brownie and the confetti cookie, and they were both moist and very delicious, 🥰“

“The only complaint I have with the crumbl cookie in anderson was that they are closed on Sunday and I didnt know that lol. I drove 40 mins to be disappointed. But that was my fault and nothing to do with them. The store is always clean the staff are always pleasant. 5 stars“

“Finding a nut free bakery is almost impossible! This bakery is amazing, I have a peanut treenut allergy and I was sooo excited to find this donut shop. Even my boyfriend who does not have allergies absolutely loves this place. They do so many different flavors and are 100% nut free. I would recommend them again and again☺️“

“Completely gluten free and delicious. Highly recommend! The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. I couldn't decide because there were so many options, I purchased a variety of items and all are outstanding.“

“This is the best bakery in the whole world. We stop here every time we drive through Cincinnati and it’s always unbelievable. The pastries leave you speechless— eyes closed, chewing and savoring every perfectly paired, complex flavored, layered bit of comfort. Orange zest on the cinnamon roll, lime zest and flaky salt on rich berry shortbread, savory toasted sesame with feta and hint of heat and sweetness. It’s really incredible stuff.“

“Great tasting brownies and the nicest people own and operate the store. Have been there several times and have never been disappointed.“

“I visited on 5/8/26 and accidentally placed my order for pickup the next day. After I showed my receipt, the staff took care of it immediately and gave me my cookies with no issues. The cookies were great, but the customer service stood out the most. Friendly, understanding, and very helpful.“

“We drive almost 3 hours to visit. Bluebird Bakery is one of the main reasons. The pies are to die for. I love the apple and my gf loves the coconut cream. It’s also a great lunch spot. Always a pleasure!!“

“these cookies are delicious“

“Super yummy savory and sweet treats alongside custom coffee and small batch breads.“

“Today was our first visit to Little Dutch Bakery. The donuts and tea cookies are amazing!“

“Delicioso pan. Se los recomiendo muchísimo“

“Best Bread baked with natural ingredients. You won’t find better within 300 miles. Enjoy“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 10/10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Oakley Crumbl is hands down one of my favorite stops! Their Dr. Pepper dirty soda (with cherry, vanilla, and heavy cream) is absolute perfection—it’s my go-to every time. And the cookies? Amazing doesn’t even begin to cover it. We’ve honestly never tried a flavor we didn’t love. Every week feels like a new treat and they never disappoint. So glad to have this spot close by!“

“We drive the hour for their donuts as they are just that good! The chocolate icing is the best around. Last Friday I got to try the cherry bombs and apple cinnamon sugar donut and those are also so amazing. We’ve had their bread and danishes in the past and guess what? Also amazing 😊 only place we get donuts at anymore“

“Like eating a piece of heaven!!!“

“Shoooowee, first off
first of, let me tell you I go to a bakery or two lots of bakeries in my time and while that doesn't make me an expert (for example you wouldnt see me on the food networl or anything like that talking about treats but) it does mean that I have had a lot of tasty things and know when something is tasty because of that experience

now, they say taste is sumjective too, but what is nice about 272 is they have something for everyone I think. for exemple, there are lots of different tasty treats and if you don't like a particular ingredient chances are there another tasty trent you would like to have , there. to eat.

they are all well done and I don't mean overbaked I mean they take care and demonstrate technique, you will come here and get something that just plain tastes great but also shows some serious skill and this is why I'm grateful to have the 272 bakery here near by,

also good coffe drink“

“I ordered two pies for my family thanksgiving, a pumpkin pie and a cranberry apple pie. To say they were delicious and amazing doesn’t do either pie the justice they deserve. The pumpkin pie was so delicate and light (THESE ARE GOOD THINGS). Sometimes a pumpkin pie can be so heavy and too rich but this was effortless joy, airy and the flavor beat anything I’ve ever even attempted to make. The cranberry apple pie was latticed with sugary perfection. The tart of the cranberry melded with the apple in a delectable ballet of OMG YES. Thank you so much for these pies! I can’t wait to order from you again!“

“I ordered the nativity scene cookies and they are beautiful! Not only were the cookies, beautiful but they also called me when I forgot to pick them up! Much appreciated. Excellent service beautiful work.“

“Hands down the best cookies and sweet potato pie in the area. The cookies are huge and flavorful (unlike another well known bakery) and the sweet potato pie is out of this world. Highly recommend!!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ North South Baking has the BEST Rhubarb Jam Filled Cruffins in all of Northern Kentucky — hands down! If you haven’t tried them yet, do yourself a favor and go ASAP. The flavor is unreal — perfectly balanced, flaky, and filled with that tangy-sweet jam that hits just right. Beyond the incredible pastries, the customer service is absolutely stellar. The staff makes you feel like family the moment you walk through the door. They’re kind, welcoming, and passionate about what they do — and that energy is contagious. This place has created lifelong memories for me, not just because of the food, but because of the people. North South Baking is a true gem. 💛🍓🥐“

“The staff was wonderfully friendly! The people make this place a must go!
The Banana Shake is a work of art.
We bought one of every cookie and currently working our way through them.
Nana's Strawberry cookie is hands down a fav so far. I'm going back for more.“

“We had a wonderful afternoon tea at Clarity House! The historic home turned tea room created such a cozy and unique atmosphere, and we really enjoyed having live piano music playing during our tea.

The food was delicious, and there was plenty of it. The tea selection was great, and I like that the menu changes with the season. It will make it easy to come back. I decided to step outside my usual traditional choices. I tried the Cinnamon Plum and Blueberry Rooibos, and both changed quite a bit as they cooled, which made them fun to experience. I also loved that they offered real heavy cream, something I hadn't experienced at any of the other tea rooms we've visited. It really added another layer to the tea!

Everything was beautifully presented, filling, and delicious. We really enjoyed our experience and would definitely look forward to coming back!“

“Ms Jillian did a wonderful job at making my unique wedding & Grooms cake!! On time, not one issue i appreciate all that you did for me on this day!! THE Beltons 2025“

“Great location, staff and amazing salted rye and scones! Just off hyde park square.“

“I placed an order for my daughter's birthday cake and they did an fantastic job. We found a picture of a cake my daughter wanted for her birthday and they were able to make it at an affordable price under $40. I called other local bakeries and was quoted $95 and up and another place quoted me $125. Thank you all for making beautiful affordable cakes. The cake was a delicious strawberry flavor and we will be returning in the future for other birthday cakes.“

“My daughter's birthday cake was a hit with everyone! Cream and fresh fruit. I wish I had taken a picture of it. It looked exactly like the one posted on website. They also have a wonderful selection of filled buns, cake by the slice and cookies. Highly recommended!!!“

“Best key lime gooey butter cake ever. Thank a bunch.“

“We celebrated my granddaughters 6th birthday there. They were so kind with her. I fell in love with the bakery, so much in fact, I dropped off a cupcake diamond art picture in hopes they could find a spot to hang it there. Love the atmosphere and the food!“

“Loved the brownies!! We had peanut butter, double chocolate, and biscoff. They were delicious! 😋“

“One team member said: "Cafe Mochiko is hands down one of the best Japanese bakeries that I have had the honor of trying. Everything is perfectly balanced regardless if you are a sweet or savory kind of person! The best part was my gluten free wife had some incredible options as well. The only thing that I wish is that I knew about them sooner. They are award winning for a reason and I highly recommend everyone to check them out!"“

“I love this place! The employees and owner are so nice and welcoming and the prices are very fair.“

“I love Busken! They have the absolute best tasting and most fresh donuts and danishes around! I frequently stop in at the Kemper location to pick up for work events and the ladies there often work with me to have my orders ready ahead of time so pick up is super quick and easy. And I love talking with them (when there's time) - they're so fun and friendly. Always a great experience. Highly recommend!“

“The cake and cupcakes were gorgeous and tasted delicious“

“Thank you Little Flour for the delicious baby shower cookies. The designs were perfect and they tasted great. Little Flour made the wedding cake and now the baby shower cookies for our daughter and her husband. They are a part of our family, showing up for all important events.“

“5 stars all the way!
I ordered custom cookies for a graduation celebration, and they absolutely exceeded my expectations! Not only were they beautifully decorated and perfectly on theme, but they were also delicious-soft, fresh, and full of flavor. I'll definitely be coming back for future events! Highly recommend!“

“Received a bag of peanut butter dog cookies as a gift. My dog loves them!

I've since ordered a three pack. Shipping was fast and easy. Each bag of cookies is personally signed by the individual who baked/packed them.

Each purchase supports this charity which encourages collaboration and skill building among the staff.

I love the idea of how they bake these treats from spent grains from local craft breweries. A healthy snack for my pup and great gift idea for dog lovers.“

“My husband and I found this little shop when I googled ice cream near Riverbend. I had softserve chocolate in a waffle cone. It was so good! I’m still thinking about it.😁 My husband said his chocolate milkshake was much better than DQ. Glad we found you!“

“The cupcakes are delicious! I purchased 4 different flavors of cupcakes and they were all so moist and fresh tasting. I wish I had bought more on my overnight visit to Cincy“
