San Francisco's Sweet Side

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links.

Two of San Francisco's best sweet shops are just around the corner from each other in Hayes Valley. 

In this video by GloboMaestro.com, San Francisco expert Antonio Barrios — head concierge at The St. Regis San Francisco — takes you to the charming cake-and-candy shop Miette. Here you'll find an incomparable collection of nostalgia treats, a trove of small-batch, boutique sweets, and organic baked goods. (In fact, owner Meg Ray has just published her first cookbook, The Miette Bakery Cookbook.)

A stone's throw from Miette is one of only two Christopher Elbow chocolate boutiques in the country. Antonio shows us just why Elbow's artisanal chocolates are worth seeking out.
