items Central Florida's bakery scene is a delicious mix of Cuban panaderías, artisan bread, and showstopping cakes. After years of taste-testing across Kissimmee, Poinciana, and Orlando, these are the bakeries my family returns to for warm guava pastries, ...
Map
My go-to for Puerto Rican-style quesitos and tres leches — the cases are always packed with fresh pastries and the café con leche is the real deal. A true Kissimmee gem.
Melao Bakery - Kissimmee
A Central Florida institution for Colombian comfort baking — the pandebono, fresh-pressed arepas, and buttery pan de queso are addictive. Grab a cafecito and you'll be a regular in no time.
Mecatos Cafe & Bakery (Orlando)
This Winter Park stunner is equal parts bakery and dessert lounge — gorgeous layer cakes, macarons, and the best brown-butter chocolate chip cookie around. Perfect for a celebration or an afternoon treat.
The Glass Knife
A breakfast-and-pastry dream — the brown butter croissants and biscuit sandwiches sell out fast, so I get there early. Some of the best laminated dough in Central Florida.
Buttermilk Bakery
An artisan bread institution that supplies half of Orlando's best restaurants — their sourdough boules, baguettes, and soft pretzels are the real deal. A must for serious bread lovers.
Olde Hearth Bread Company
A charming Audubon Park spot famous for from-scratch cupcakes and cookies. The salted caramel and the rotating seasonal flavors keep me coming back — grab a few and a coffee.
Blue Bird Bake Shop
Adorable little Audubon Park shop specializing in pie — sweet and savory hand pies, jarred pies, and mini quiches. The key lime and the chicken pot pie are personal favorites.
P is for Pie Bake Shop
A local Kissimmee favorite for authentic Cuban baking — warm pan cubano, guava-and-cheese pastelitos, and croquetas that disappear fast. Perfect with a colada to share.
Delicias Cuban Bakery (Kissimmee)
A go-to for gourmet cupcakes and fresh-spun cupcake milkshakes — the kids beg for the birthday-cake flavor. Fun stop near the attractions area for a sweet pick-me-up.
Smallcakes Orlando
A Venezuelan-style bakery and cafe with cases full of golden cachitos, pan de jamón, and quesillo. Great for a hearty breakfast or grabbing fresh bread for the week.
Don Pan International Bakery
A Vietnamese-French bakery cafe with flaky croissants, fresh baguettes, and outstanding banh mi. I love grabbing a pandan cake and an iced Vietnamese coffee on the Mills 50 side of town.
Paris Banh Mi
A no-frills Latin bakery and breakfast counter beloved for cheap, fresh Cuban bread, pastelitos, and strong coffee. The kind of authentic neighborhood spot locals keep coming back to.
Rico Pan Bakery
Right on charming Park Avenue, this is my stop for jewel-box French macarons and dainty pastries. Perfect for a treat while strolling Winter Park's shops and galleries.
Le Macaron French Pastries Winter Park
A friendly Kissimmee panadería on West Vine with fresh-baked breads, Latin pastries, and hearty home-style plates. Great prices and a warm neighborhood feel — a true local find.
