Top 5 Places to Get Dessert Near Deering Bay

French Bakery

14453 S Dixie Hwy, Miami, FL 33176

✅ Takeout - ✅ Delivery - ✅ Pick-Up - ✅ Outdoor Dining

There's a reason French expats, pastry snobs, and longtime locals all quietly swear by French Bakery, a tucked-away treasure just 11 minutes from Deering Bay.

And no, it isn't because it's photo-op-ready, flashy, or trendy — far from it.

But if you're looking for pastries that speak for themselves, French Bakery is the REAL deal.

Here, the air smells like butter and sugar had a baby, and the treasures behind the glass? All the classics you'd expect in an authentic French Bakery (no pun intended!).

Think croissants with caramelized edges, raspberry and pistachio tartelettes, golden canelés, airy cream puffs, and éclairs filled with silky chocolate custard.

By the way, their almond croissant is a local legend (so don't expect it to be available after 10 a.m.), and the Napoleon somehow holds its crisp layers long enough to make it home — if you don't eat it in the car.

You'll also find savory quiches, baguette sandwiches, and rich café au lait steaming in thick ceramic mugs, like the old days.

There's nothing trendy or performative at French Bakery — just expertly created and curated pastries made with skill, pride, and a heaping dose of butter.

Satisfy your sweet streak in style at Catalina's Sweet Atelier, a boutique dessert shop known for top-tier pastry artistry just 11 minutes from Deering Bay.

As you step into Catalina's, you'll know it isn't your typical bake-and-display spot — and we're sure your nose will agree!

Equal parts edible gallery and sugar laboratory, Catalina's ensures each treat is built with high-end ingredients, careful technique, and just enough flair to keep you coming back for more.

For one, their display case is a daily temptation brimming with glossy fruit tarts, minimalist mousse domes, delicate mille-feuille, and cake slices that could pass as sculptures. 

The macarons? Pillowy, precise, and boldly flavored with pistachio, raspberry, and salted caramel — and these flavors are just the beginning.

And believe us, you can't go wrong with their Lemon Meringue cake, a tangy, cloud-soft masterpiece with a brûléed top that cracks just right, or a classic personalized pastry box that's also perfect for gifting, sharing, or devouring on your own.

It's sophisticated without the snobbery, decadent without the drama, and exactly the dessert detour worth taking on your way home from anywhere and everywhere!

La Boulangerie Boul'Mich

Follow the scent of butter and outstanding decisions as they take you to La Boulangerie Boul'Mich, a French-Venezuelan café that knows its way around a pastry case just 11 minutes from Deering Bay.

A local legend for over 20 years, La Boulangerie Boul'Mich has been winning hearts (and breakfast meetings) with its European techniques, Latin soul, and a menu that feels like a sugar-fueled devotion to every craving — even those you didn't know you had.

Inside, you'll find tarts that shimmer like jewelry, eclairs that belong in pastry museums, irresistible macarons in colors that deserve Pantone codes, and cheesecakes in an array of flavors. 

And if you haven't tried dessert in a jar yet, it's best to start HERE.

Really, there's no shame in ordering one of everything — say it's "for the table" (even if you're the only one at the table) *wink*.

Because when flaky, creamy, and caramel-drizzled all show up in one place, the only reasonable thing to do is surrender.

Think of Chill-N as a dessert with a side of drama — your custom scoop is flash-frozen on the spot with liquid nitrogen, turning a simple order into a fog-filled science experiment gone deliciously right.

While the fog show is part of the fun, the results seal the deal, as your chosen silky-smooth ice cream drowns in whatever wild combo you dreamt up.

Choose your base, throw in your mix-ins, and build your masterpiece from the ground up. 

Want Nutella ice cream with Oreos and strawberries? Or maybe Key Lime with graham cracker crumble and whipped cream? Go wild — it's encouraged.

At Chill-N, your dessert doubles as entertainment and ends in a cup of something truly unforgettable. 

And boy, science has never tasted so good.
