Best Bakery and Cake Shops in Hollywood Beach

"Look for the long lines, and you’ll know you’ve found this artisanal donut shop with a major cult-like following. The Salty's quickly transformed from a pop-up food truck to a permanent institution in Wynwood thanks to its fluffy, handmade donuts flaunting flavors such as guava and cheese, maple bacon and white chocolate tres leches, along with seasonal and limited-edition donuts. For something simpler, try the traditional glazed buttermilk donut made with 24-hour brioche, and order a specialty coffee to wash it all down."

"The fast-selling, handmade brioche donuts are buttery and fluffy outside, soft and moist inside. They make regular flavours like traditional glazed, hazelnut chocolate and white chocolate tres leches all year round. Grab some maple bacon donuts if you are there, hands up!"

"Although 'artisanal doughnuts' sounds pretentious, no one can deny the merits of these artfully designed creations featuring seasonal ingredients – probably the best in South Florida. Maple and bacon, guava and... Mexican in Wynwood & the Design District"

"Come for a loaf of sourdough (or a good ol’ pastrami sandwich), stay for the sweet-smelling aroma of freshly baked breads and pastries that fills the café all day long. Currently offering delivery and take-out. 295 NW 26th Ave.,Wynwood; 786-294-0876 or zakthebaker.com"

"Compared to its Wynwood neighbors, Zak the Baker is kind of boring. The floor is grey concrete. The tables and chairs are simple and wooden."

"Located in Wynwood, Fireman Derek’s World Famous Pies serves up some of the most delicious pies around, with flavors like chocolate peanut butter, brown butter pie, and s’mores. They also have a killer guava cheesecake, red velvet cake, and serve lunch pies, including their infamous mac and cheese pie. If you’re in the mood for some seriously savory pies, you’re going to have to hit this spot in the vibrant streets of Miami’s arts district."

"A five-alarm wave of yumminess is sweeping through the Wynwood Art District neighborhood from the pies baked at Fireman Derek's Bake Shop & Cafe. All those years of cooking in firehouses have paid off for Miami firefighter-turned-professional-baker Derek Kaplan, who has made desserts for more than 15 years. What started as a food truck has evolved into a popular brick-and-mortar shop self-described as offering world-famous pies."

"Located in the Wynwood Art District, this hidden gem serves up sweet pies, like the classic apple and chocolate peanut butter, yet also savory pies, like the spinach and feta and the Mediterranean. After browsing the beautiful art, stop by this joint to grab a slice of literally anything. They won't let you down."

"The namesake of Puerto Rican pastry chef Antonio Bachour is an oasis of the Instagram-worthy creations that have made him a national sensation. Glass display cases proffer seductive rows of brightly colored cakes, macarons, croissants, and bonbons to satisfy even the most demanding sweet tooth. This 5,000-square-foot spot, tucked away in Coral Gables on a serene corner of Salzedo Street, offers not only melt-in-your-mouth pastries and desserts, but also workshops for culinary professionals and a daylong à la carte menu of salads, egg-based dishes, tarts, sandwiches, and hearty entrées such as churrasco and grilled salmon."

"Bachour’s iconic flower entrance sets the stage for a fantastic brunch with impeccable food. Located in the heart of Coral Gables, Bachour, is the restaurant, bakery and pastry shop by world renown pastry chef Antonio Bachour. The menu is Contemporary American, and features a full-line of croissants, egg-based dishes, tartines, sandwiches, salads and main courses as well as Bachour’s petite-gateux, macarons and bonbons."

"Antonio Bachour’s namesake and flagship bakery located in Coral Gables serves a variety of award-winning pastries. Here there’s no shortage of filled croissants, breads, and petits gateaux. One of the most popular treats is the dulce de leche croissant that’s filled to the brim with gooey sweetness."

"Joanna’s is a chic marketplace-café-bakery located between South Miami and Dadeland. Their motto – “Eat dessert first” – captures the bakery’s focus on fine pastries and freshly baked bread. For those who don’t have a sweet tooth, this 25-year-old establishment also offers a variety of sandwiches and hot foods, presented in front of a detailed chalk wall."

Locations throughout Miami."

"Before donuts became hip and pastry chefs got their hands on them, they were the everyman’s breakfast pastry. Dandee Donuts is one of the few independent places where you can still grab an old-school, traditional donut. You can also sit down and have an omelet, a patty melt, or even a pizza here."

"Here visiting from NC and decided to give this restaurant a try- let me tell you it didn't disappoint- I had the waffle with scrambled eggs and turkey..."

(You can view the full menu here.)"

"Description: The result of collaboration between MTT and Pritzker Prize-winning architect Frank Gehry, the New World Center is an architectural gem adjacent to Miami Beach SoundScape park in the heart of South Beach. The New World Center features multiple flexible spaces, cutting edge media equipment, six stories of natural light and views of the iconic Miami Beach Art Deco skyline all perfectly situated between dramatic ocean and bay vistas."

"The renowned New World Symphony is housed in the new Frank Gehry-designed New World Center. The venue itself resembles a geode inside, with sail-like convex panels overhead. A box-like exterior has latticed glass windows and a huge projection wall."

"Designed by Frank Gehry, this performance hall rises majestically out of a manicured lawn just above Lincoln Rd. Not unlike the ethereal power of the music within, the glass-and-steel facade encases... Beach in South Beach"

"The shining beacon of historic buildings of Miami is located right in the middle of Downtown. The recently restored 1926 silent movie palace, complete with baroque balconies and red velvet curtains, exudes charisma. The Olympia Theater hosts film screenings, concerts, art exhibits, and other events under a simulated night sky ceiling graced by Elvis Presley, B.B. King, Luciano Pavarotti, and many others."
