Bakeries in Philadelphia

Bakeries help you pick up fresh bread, pastries and sweets for everyday meals, a coffee break, or a celebration. Many also offer custom orders, gift boxes and cookie tins, and some carry specialty items such as cannoli, Italian cookies and torrone. If you are ordering for an event, call ahead and ask how much notice they need for custom orders, since holiday weeks fill up quickly. It also helps to ask whether they can make a item without nuts or dairy if anyone in your group needs it, and to confirm pickup hours before you drive over.
