If you’re on vacation and you’re craving a sweet treat, you’re in luck if you’re staying in New Smyrna Beach. New Smyrna Beach is a town that is sweet on its own volition, but it is also home to some sugary confections that are hard to beat!

Conveniently located on Third Avenue across from Norwood’s and The Garlic restaurants, you will find Mon Delice with desserts offering an authentic South of France flair. There are pastries, cakes, tarts, gourmet specialties and freshly baked artisan breads on which, by the way, you can order breakfast or lunch sandwiches.

If it’s ice cream you crave, Donna’s is an old fashioned creamery on historic Canal Street with over a dozen flavors that can be ordered in the form of an ice cream cone, sundae or shake. Donna also offers quite a selection of coffees, cookies, cakes and pastries and breakfast and lunch menu items as well.

Another great place to satisfy your sweet tooth in New Smyrna Beach is Donnie’s Donuts, which is also on Canal and is so good that it was featured by Tyler Florence on The Food Network. Donnie’s remarkable menu of fancy donuts varies every day and includes items like a death by chocolate donut and a donut with apple pie filling and gooey caramel icing dusted with cinnamon streusel.

There are more, but that should get you started! Then, if you’re staying at The Sandpiper, you can head back to your luxurious ocean view accommodations which may just be the sweetest part of your day.
