Fall Sweets Take Center Stage: Discover Atlanta's Most Delectable Seasonal Desserts!

Fall Sweets Are Here: A Tasty Adventure in Atlanta!

Oh, Atlanta, how we love your fall treats! As the leaves turn and the air crispies up, the city’s pastry chefs are working their magic, creating mouthwatering desserts that go way beyond the humble pumpkin. So, let’s explore some delectable sweet options that showcase the flavors of autumn. Grab your spoon and prepare for a delightful tour of Atlanta’s fall desserts!

If You’re Craving Apples…

Then head straight to Tiny Lou’s for a slice of their fabulous French apple pie. Each bite features tart green apples enveloped in a creamy spiced custard, all crowned with a crunchy almond streusel. Elevate your experience with a scoop of their almost tart crème fraîche ice cream, which perfectly balances the pie’s sweetness.

Want apples but in a softer form? Give Little Sparrow a whirl for their seasonal soft serve served with spiced apples and topped with an almond financier. Trust us; your taste buds will thank you!

If You’re in the Mood for Pecans…

Check out Sweet Auburn Barbecue for a slice of their famous bourbon pecan pie. This Asian-fusion barbecue gem in Poncey-Highland serves this classic pie a la mode with vanilla ice cream, and it’s everything you could ask for—but beware of those pimento cheese wontons and smoked fried rice; they might fill you up too fast!

If Pumpkin Is Your Jam…

You have plenty of choices! Start at Oak Steakhouse in Avalon for their divine pumpkin cake. Pastry chef Nickey Boyd weaves brown-butter cream-cheese frosting and cranberry compote together to create a petite cake that will leave you wanting more.

For a twist, try Canoe’s take on the classic with a tres leches pumpkin pie roll drizzled with chai anglaise. It’s topped with whimsical dulce de leche “kisses” and a pie-crust garnish for an Instagram-worthy presentation!

If Sweet Potatoes Are Your Thing…

Don’t miss the picarones at Tio Lucho’s. These traditional Peruvian treats, created by Chef Arnaldo Castillo and Pastry Chef Claudia Martinez, are spiced doughnut holes made with sweet potato and squash, served with a warm spiced syrup alongside a scoop of peach ice cream.

If that’s not sweet potato-y enough for you, head to Deer and the Dove for a stunning sweet potato cheesecake. This masterpiece comes with a coconut graham crust topped with a cranberry meringue and crunchy gingersnap crumbs—a perfect autumn delight!

If You Have a Soft Spot for Carrot Cake…

Make your way to Umi in Buckhead, where they serve a delightful carrot-coconut bread pudding. This gooey goodness features pineapple-studded carrot cake baked to perfection and paired with a dairy-free scoop of toasted-coconut ice cream and a delicate tuile made from coconut syrup. Pair this wonder with one of their old fashioned cocktails, and you’ve got a fabulous dessert moment!

If Maple Speaks to Your Heart…

Head over to Bocado for their ricotta maple syrup ice cream brûlée. This light dessert is made from scoops of maple syrup-flavored ice cream rolled in sugar, then torched to create a crispy coating. Alternatively, experience the maple magic in cookie form at Sugar Shane’s with their delightful fall rolls—cookies filled with white chocolate chips and cinnamon that are totally drool-worthy!

If Pear Is What You Seek…

Look no further than Pata Negra, where they offer the stunning peras del desierto. Inspired by prickly pears, this dessert features white chocolate corn mousse finished with prickly pear sorbet and corn tuile. Pro tip: Ask for a mezcal pairing to take your taste adventure to the next level!

If You Crave Plums…

Book a table at Miller Union for their plum torte. This classic dessert lets the plum shine, complemented by plum compote, candied almonds, and a scoop of creamsicle ice cream. Gingersnap crumbs bring a delightful crunch, completing this cozy dish.

This fall, let your sweet tooth lead you through Atlanta’s best seasonal desserts. These treats are only around for a little while, so don’t miss out on a chance to indulge in these delectable flavors of autumn!
