Desserts by Clement

I am obsessed with the Halloween vibes at Desserts By Clèment today! From creepy skeletons to desserts crafted for a fun Halloween theme, they are in the spirit all the way! I live about an hour away, but any time I'm in San Diego, I must stop by! Originally came down the first time with my nephew who saw the viral desserts on TikTok. They are as delicious as they are beautiful! Today I tried the skull and pumpkin and they were a taste of heaven. The skull is rich, creamy chocolate with a raspberry center and melts in your mouth. I also tried the pumpkin which is light and airy with a smooth chai/pumpkin flavor, it's not too rich, which was perfect. I'm excited to come try their sandwiches sometime. I didn't realize in addition to their desserts, they also have actual food too! And super yummy coffee drinks. Thanks to everyone who makes this place so special!

By far the best trompe l'oeil pastries in San Diego. Super cute location and easily accessible. Plenty of parking. The lemon was by far my favorite but if you can't decide get the sampler pack!

I discovered this place from Instagram posts so I had to try it when visiting San Diego. The shop is adorable and the woman at the counter was so friendly. She helped me select the perfect pastry to bring back home to NH. The holiday mushroom I had on site was delicious and worth the price. I only wish they had a few dairy free options for people with allergies. They do have gluten free though. I will definitely come back next time I visit.
