There are two kinds of people in the world: the ones who like sweets/desserts and the ones who should be transported to some cold planet, devoid of every sweetness. This needs to happen especially for the way they, despite knowing your insatiable love for meetha - choose to constantly remind you of how fattening and unhealthy it can be! So, if you have nodded along and found solace in this idea of a world where nobody contests the power of desserts, then this article is going to make your day. For lovers of all baked goods sweet and/or savoury, from cakes to pastries and from quiches to breads - here’s a list of some of the best bakeries in Delhi that you absolutely must try out. And, if possible, drag the ‘other kind of people’ in your life along too; and see how these places change the way they feel about desserts.

For dessert-lovers who believe in quality over quantity, this little bakery in Khan Market is a dessert haven. The menu, unlike most other bakeries we’ve listed, is rather constrained, but just as delightful and impressive. Their croissant preparation is class-apart, and so are the flavoursome sandwiches, apart from the cakes that present a perfect blend of gooey and solid.

One of the most popular cake shops in Delhi, Theobroma is a go-to option for many. Reason? Super-affordable pricing, without having even the tiniest impact on the food they serve. While their pastries and cakes are drool-worthy, the place has carved out a niche space for itself by offering a number of vegetarian options. Known for their molten hot brownies that are soft and just the right kind of sweet, Theobroma is also popular for providing a good dine-in experience. We would definitely recommend their veg quiche and blueberry Danish to you.
