By DREW DAKESSIAN

I
f you love dessert and live
or work around Portland,
you have definitely come
to the right place. The
greater Portland area is home
to a myriad of sites in which to
satisfy your sweet tooth. From
conventional confections to in-
novative ice creams, these des-
sert shops will show you why
dessert is spelled with two S’s
— because you’ll always want
seconds.

BEAVERTON BAKERY
— 12375
S.W. Broadway St. in Beaverton
and 16857 S.W. 65th Ave. in Lake
Oswego.
Your one-stop shop for pas-
tries such as hazelnut cookies
and old-fashioned cinnamon
bread, the Beaverton Bakery is
also well known for its cakes,
which can serve from 6 to 128
people, come in 21 standard fla-
vors and can be garnished, deco-
rated, customized according to a
theme or even baked with a
Kopyjet image of your choice.
Try the banana cream cake —
trust us. (Old Town Beaverton:

KYRA’S BAKE SHOP
— 400
Fifth St., Lake Oswego.
Owned by Kyra Bussanich,
two-time winner of the Food
Network show “CupcakeWars,”
Kyra’s Bake Shop is proving to
Pacific Northwest patrons that
baked goods can be both gluten-
free and delicious. What these
treats lack in wheat, spelt, rye
and barley, they make up for in
tastiness. The famous cupcakes
are a treat for sure, but we’re al-
so partial to their cinnamon
rolls. (503-212-2979 / Kyrasbake-

PAPA HAYDN
— 701 N.W. 23rd
Ave. and 5829 S.E. Milwaukie
Ave., Portland.
You may come to this restau-
rant for its European dinner
fare, but you’ll stay for its cakes,
cobblers and custards. The
menu features scrumptious sta-
ples as well as a rotating lineup
of seasonal sweets. Both loca-
tions take dessert orders for
pick-up with 24 hours notice, or
you can stay put and enjoy your
panna cotta or Georgian peanut
butter mousse amid romantic
ambiance. (Westside Restau-
rant: 503-228-7317. Eastside Res-

SALT & STRAW
— 3345 S.W.
Division St., 2035 N.E. Alberta St.
and 838 N.W. 23rd Ave., Portland
(ice cream pushcart at 330 First
St., Lake Oswego).
Since cousins Kim and Tyler
Maleck started Salt & Straw
two years ago, this ice cream
shop has gained widespread ac-
claim, noted for its unusual fla-
vors (we like honey balsamic
strawberry with cracked pep-
per) made of 7 percent more
butterfat than most other ice
creams. Bonus points awarded
for its sustainable practices, in-
cluding using 100 percent re-
newable energy and fully com-
postable serving ware. (South-
east shop: 503-208-2054. North-
east shop: 503-208-3867. North-
west shop: 971-271-8168 /
