Carroll Ann Bake Shop

If your downtown and looking for delicious, delicate, pastry that with one bite you can feel the passion and love for the craft my choice every time is Carroll Ann’s.
Unlike other bakeshops that have become a cliché of the Boston Tourist, the heart warming customer service paired with skillfully made treats will never make you feel like a member of the herd being ushered through so they can get to the next person. From personal experience they are also AMAZING at working with customers and customizing orders for any event large or small, as demonstrated at my wedding. Now that they have opened a location at the Stop & Shop down the street from my apartment on McGrath in Somerville we couldn’t be happier.

The two main ingredients here are fat and sugar. Maybe that’s why the pastries are relatively inexpensive. This is a good place for people who like to pig out.
