Whether you're considering a move to Boston, MA, or have lived here for your entire life, those of you with a sweet tooth will probably be interested in finding out about the sweetest sweet spots you might not have heard of yet.  Boston, MA is known for both its restaurants and bakeries.  Today, I'm focusing on bakeries in Boston and beyond.  Here are three that are a mix of old favorites and those new to the scene.  Enjoy!

Macaron Sweeterie 
The Macaron Sweeterie opened in Boston earlier this year and features a wide selection of French macarons.  French macarons are a delicate, almond-flavored pastry that are quickly becoming a favorite in Boston.  They are naturally 100% gluten-free, and the Macaron Sweeterie has 12-16 different flavors on any given day.  They also sell coffee, tea, gelato, and other Italian sweets.  Check their website for more information.

Address: 848 Massachusetts Avenue, Lexington, MA 02420

Lulu's Sweet Shoppe
Lulu's main focus is on cupcakes, the very trendy dessert of today.  They offer very unique flavors, such as Nutella, Whoopie Pie, and Pistachio with Port Wine.  Cakes are also available in all cupcake flavors.  In addition to baked goods, Lulu's has a selection of retro candies.  Whether you're looking for gummy pizza or candy cigarettes, they have it here.  Visit Lulu's website for more information.

Address:  57 Salem Street, Boston, MA 02113

aka Marvelicious
This one is for the vegans out there.  Everything at aka Marvelicious is made without animal-based ingredients such as eggs, butter, and milk.  aka Marvelicious says their purpose is "saving the planet...one cookie at a time."  They use sustainable packaging and organic ingredients.  Right now, they have five flavors: almond carrotoon (a macaroon that uses carrot instead of coconut), best peanut butter, lemon sunshine, oatmeal cardamom, and orange chocolate chunk.

Address:  See website for details.  Cookies are sold at farmer's markets and healthy events.

Hopefully you learned about a new Boston, MA business from this post.  If you try out any of the sweet treats mentioned, I'd love to hear about it!  As always, feel free to contact me with any questions about real estate or the area.  Have a good week!
