Where to get the area's finest pastries, cakes, and breads

Metro Detroit has no shortage of bakeries offering outstanding cakes, pastries, and breads. The region is also fortunate in that people can take their pick of treats from around the globe. The area is chock-full of enticing storefronts specializing in Mexican, Japanese, Polish, and Lebanese pastries, as well as whole shops devoted to American classics like sweet potato pie. Some spots such as Sister Pie are uniquely Detroit, conjuring flavors found right here in Michigan.

It’s been quite a year for pastry as well and Detroit has received some worthy additions to the map including Cannelle by Matt Knio in downtown Detroit, Warda Patisserie in Eastern Market, and Ochre Bakery in Core City. Whether the day calls for a savory egg galette, a frosted sugar cookie, or a sweet and nutty bite of baklava, below find a guide to metro Detroit’s top bakeries.
