Welcome to The Baked Bear

"If you’ve got a sweet tooth (or a full-blown sugar obsession like me), this place is dangerous in the best way possible. I stopped by The Baked Bear in Miami Beach and honestly, it was dessert heaven from start to finish. I went for a warm, gooey cookie sandwich, one side the birthday cake cookie, tasting just like a fresh-baked birthday treat straight from the oven, and the other the white chocolate macadamia nut with that perfect nutty sweetness. I added Nutella chocolate chunk on a second round (because why not?) and went all in with caramel pretzel fudge ice cream — sweet, salty, and decadent with bits of crunch that made every bite ridiculously good. Then came the toasted s’more creation, pure nostalgia, with that mix of melted marshmallow flavor and the sea salt caramel swirl that perfectly balanced all the sweetness. I topped it off with M&Ms and a caramel drizzle, and it was the ultimate sugar high, in the best possible way. Big shoutout to Veronica, who truly made the experience. She’s the bakery manager and clearly knows her stuff, she didn’t just take my order, she curated it. Her recommendations were spot-on, and you can tell she genuinely loves what she does. It’s rare to get that kind of personal, warm service these days, and she absolutely overdelivered. The place itself is super clean, bright, and welcoming, with plenty of comfy spots to sit back and enjoy your treat, whether you want to cool off from the Miami heat or just savor your sugar moment. If you love cookies, ice cream, or just that pure joy combo of warm and cold desserts, The Baked Bear is a must-stop. Every bite felt made with care, and you’ll probably leave grinning (and a little sugar-buzzed) like I did."
