When it comes to pastry in Atlanta, there's one counter that forever tempts us and confounds our ability to choose just … one … thing. If we could, we'd hand over a Nobel Prize in pastry to the Little Tart Bakeshop, and then we'd stuff our faces with all the heavenly croissants and unreasonably complex scones and delightfully savory ham puffs and Vidalia onion galettes. And, dear god, if it's Saturday, yes we'll take a cinnamon-sugar morning bun. And maybe one of those decadent salted caramel nut tarts for dessert. And then …

The cakes at HIGHLAND BAKERY aren't like the ones you might find at those fancy cake makers, where towering layers impose in their perfection. Instead, there's something comfortably homey, with a fair dose of bohemian chic, in the rows of cakes dressed with orange and yellow daisies and other unpretentious adornments. From carrot and coconut to traditional chocolate or yellow, the cakes' ingredients are organic and as wholesome as can be without compromising taste. Or, as one fan puts it, she'd like to bathe in Highland Bakery's buttercream frosting. The bakery's sweet-potato pancakes are nothing to scoff at, either - and serve as the perfect excuse to pick up a special-occasion cake during breakfast hours.

Katharine Krasnow’s BREAD GARDEN is not the biggest bakery in town. But it’s been our favorite since it opened and instantly transferred 15 pounds of buttery raisin scones from the display case to our abdominal region. Krasnow, given to amiably chattering to herself after powdering her face with flour, treats bread as the living presence it is. Her raisin-nut bread makes beautiful music with many cheeses. Her country Italian loaf loves to become a sandwich. Her pastries? The safest sex we’ve ever had.

A goat cheese tart laden with fleshy figs dripping honey beckons to you while a golden cupcake sings its buttercream siren song. The retro-American and French-influenced cakes and pastries at STAR PROVISIONS might lure you to the bakeshop, but it's superstar baker Scott Klein's outstanding breads that will keep you coming back. Klein's crusty pain epi, chewy semolina and sweet and springy cherry pecan loaves are simply without equal in Atlanta. Spent grains from Dogwood Brewing are used to create the Dogwood spent bread, a dense, wheaty delight to sustain the heart and belly. "1198 Howell Mill Road. 404-365-0410. www.starprovisions.com"

When anyone asks us to recommend where to get a top-notch birthday cake, we hesitate about .05 seconds before responding "ALON'S!" Open since 1992, this charmer in the heart of Virginia-Highland has become the bakery of record in Atlanta. They dabble in just about everything you can do with flour, from traditional, rustic breads to meltingly good chocolate chip-pecan cookies to banana cream pies with just the right amount of crisp in the crust. Try the lamb sandwich or the bruschetta with radicchio and Gorgonzola if you're looking for something savory. "1394 N. Highland Ave., 404-872-6000. www.alons.com"
