Best cake slices across all 50 U.S. states are identified using awards and online reviews from major databases and local feedback. The selection focuses on single slices and small patisserie cakes intended for one or two people rather than cupcakes. Many featured bakeries and restaurants also offer larger cakes and other baked goods such as breads and croissants. Several entries are restaurants that provide full meals alongside pastries. Purchases at featured locations should allow a slice or petite gâteau option. Offerings may vary by season and location.
There's nothing more disappointing than a dry hunk of flour disguised in cloyingly sweet icing, so we've scoured the internet for online reviews and major award databases to find out where the best slices of cake can be savored in all 50 states.
You won't find us waxing poetic about any cupcakes on this list. Instead, we've favored places where you can procure either slices of cake or small patisserie cakes designed to be eaten by only one or two people.
We chose these bakeries and restaurants based on awards given to the establishments and their chefs, as well as the online reviews given by locals and tourists alike. At all of the businesses featured, you should be able to purchase a slice of cake or a small version of cake, such as petite gâteau.
