Rank 1. La Purisima Bakery
Mexican Bakery
A line usually snakes out the door of this traditional Mexican bakery in Glendale, where the pastry cases overflow with molasses cochinitos, fruit-filled pan dulce, and those giant pink pig-shaped cookies that are dangerously addictive. The fresh tortillas and chile tamales are stellar, but come hungry and bring cash—it's the kind of place where you'll want to try everything.

Rank 11. Blooming Donuts
Dessert
A bright counter shop in west Phoenix serving up straightforward, excellent doughnuts: the raised ones are pillowy with a tender chew, but the cake doughnuts—crisp outside, moist within—are the real draw. The vanilla glaze hits that perfect sweetness spot, especially when you pair it with their iced matcha latte with boba.

Rank 25. Dutch Donut Factory
Bakery
This family-owned donut shop in east Mesa does raised doughnuts and old-fashioned buttermilk bars with the kind of restraint that makes them sing—no gimmicks, just flawless execution and a warm glaze. Catch them early if you can, when the pillowy rounds are still hot from the fryer.

Rank 27. Dulce Churro Café
Dessert
A casual spot in a strip mall where fresh churros come in loops, bites, and sticks made to order, then customized with everything from mango dip to sprinkles. The magic is in the execution: each one arrives hot with a crackling exterior and a tender, yielding center that justifies all the hype.
