Dessert | Sate Your Sweet Tooth at The Baked Bear

Customize your own made-to-order ice cream sandwich at Pacific Beach’s The Baked Bear.

Since the Baked Bear opened in Pacific Beach, lines have regularly formed out the door for the shop’s signature ice cream sandwiches made with California craft ice cream and your choice of freshly baked cookies, waffles and Ghirardelli brownies. Each made-to-order concoction is handmade, and the more creative the better. Cookie flavors include gluten-free chocolate chip, red velvet, peanut butter and snickerdoodle; along with around a dozen ice cream flavors—from rocky road to strawberry cheesecake to butter pecan. Or opt for an ice cream sundae or old-fashioned root beer float. Dine in, or take your treats to the beach for dessert with a view. 4516 Mission Blvd., Pacific Beach. 858.886.7433. thebakedbear.com
