Valentine’s Day is almost here, and more than likely a little romance is already on the brain. If you’re looking for a sweet treat to give to your sweetheart this year, then you don’t have to travel far from your Traton home to pick up a delicious gift. There are tons of local metro Atlanta bakeries serving up decadent desserts so that you can “put the icing on the cake” of your romantic evening. Below are just a few of the bakeries you can find around town.

Just minutes from Rockford Township in Marietta you’ll find Gabriel’s, a bakery and restaurant serving up good old Southern cooking and traditional desserts. The owner is Johnnie Gabriel who is the cousin of none other than one of America’s favorite cooks, Paula Deen. Here you’ll find anything and everything needed to impress your Valentine including pound cakes, layer cakes, pies, cheesecakes, cookies and more.

If you really want to impress your loved one with a unique treat this Valentine’s Day, then visit Cakes Caboodle in Kennesaw. Just like those impressive cakes you see on TV, Cakes Caboodle can make custom, 3D/sculptured delights. Or, indulge in one of their amazing cupcakes with one-of-a-kind flavors like Boston Cream Pie, Chai Latte, French Toast, Key Lime Pie, PB&J, Salty and Spice Caramel, White Truffle and many more.

Those shopping for treats in Atlanta should visit Henri’s Bakery and Café. The restaurant is known for its made-from-scratch baked goods as well as its signature deli sandwiches. Henri’s has many options for those looking to shower their loved ones with sweets for Valentine’s Day including a sweet “Frog Prince” cake, chocolate cupcakes with roses or strawberries dipped in decadent creams and frostings.
