Extraordinary Desserts is much more than a collection of extravagant cakes, pastries and sweets. It is the number one destination in San Diego for globally-inspired gourmet desserts. Created by celebrated pastry chef and author Karen Krasne, all are made without exception from the very finest ingredients found anywhere on earth. Extraordinary experiences await at our cafe near Balboa Park and our patisserie / restaurant in Little Italy, which in addition to lavish cakes, tortes, pastries and ice creams features a wide selection of savory dishes, including creative panini and salads, artisan cheeses and more, as well as appealing gluten-free and vegan fare. Our small batch roasted organic coffee, tea blends sourced from around the world, eclectic collection of boutique wines, all of them organic or sustainably produced, and unique beers from San Diego's celebrated craft brewers make perfect accompaniments. Dazzling artistry, sublime tastes and attentive service come together at Extraordinary Desserts to inspire even first-time guests to exclaim that their sweet tooth will never be satisfied anywhere else again. Elegance and dedication place Extraordinary Desserts at the pinnacle of pastry-making.
