We may call it Turkey Day, but I still think dessert is the most important part of a Thanksgiving meal. What’s a turkey dinner without Thanksgiving dessert? A crunchy pecan tart, or warm apple crisp to top it all off is irresistible. 

The kitchen is always bustling on Thanksgiving day, so you might not have the time or space to whip up a dessert course. Luckily, Orlando is saturated with local bakeries that can provide mouth-watering treats for your family and friends to devour after their turkey and stuffing. From homemade pastries to cheesecakes, you’ll definitely want to leave room for dessert. 

Hurry and don't wait until the last minute to order from these must-try bakeries in Orlando with Thanksgiving desserts.

Bakeries Near Orlando for Thanksgiving Desserts

Light On The Sugar 

4270 Aloma Ave Suite 112, Winter Park, FL 32792
501 Orlando Ave Suite 225, Winter Park, FL 32789
429 N Alafaya Trail, Orlando, FL 32828

Light On The Sugar is my favorite place to stop by after dinner for a quick sweet. This family-owned bakery and coffeehouse is best if you’re looking for a bunch of smaller, individual desserts rather than a whole pie or cake. Their baked goods have an Asian-inspired twist and are always super creative.

These treats will look absolutely adorable in your Thanksgiving spread, from the pumpkin-shaped cream puffs to the turkey macarons. You can even order a Thanksgiving dessert set that includes a variety of cake slices, cream puffs, tarts, and more.

Sounds divine, doesn't it?

Aunt Gingibread's Bakery

Address: 409 S. Park Ave Apopka, FL 32703

It doesn't get more downhome than this! Aunt Gingi started her career in custom cakes in 1996. After taking a small break to raise her children, she began regrowing the business. In 2013, after the encouragement of her daughter, she began Aunt Gingibread's bakery out of her home. In 2016, the storefront was opened in downtown Apopka. The Pumpkin Spice Box or the Best of AGB Box is a great choice for individual desserts with a variety to please everyone.

Simply Homemade 1913

Address: 113 S Oak Ave, Sanford, FL 32771

Simply Homemade 1913 is located in Downtown Sanford, not quite the Orlando area, but definitely worth the drive for a mouth-watering Thanksgiving dessert. This bakery offers a contemporary dessert option that you truly cannot find anywhere else–a pie-filled cheesecake. Indecisive? Get a whole cheesecake with a whole pie baked inside. 

Their flavors are pumpkin pie cheesecake, sweet potato cheesecake, caramel cheesecake, or apple pie cheesecake. You can reserve a treat for Thanksgiving, to be picked up in store.
