Where To Get Dessert Takeout & Delivery In LA
Need cookies, cakes, or ice cream delivered to your doorstep? You’re in the right place.
As if your aggressive sweet tooth wasn’t already an issue, now you have the stress of a quarantine triggering it. Tip: Just lean into it. We all need to feel some sweet relief right now, and there’s no shame in a late-night (or early afternoon) sugar binge. Luckily, there are plenty of places in town to help. From classic diners to pie shops to restaurants selling homemade ice cream by the pint, here are some great options for dessert delivery in LA.
The Spots
The Apple Pan has been open for 73 years, and right now marks the first time they’re doing delivery. While you should obviously snag one of their legendary hickory burgers, their desserts are arguably just as special. The banana cream and boysenberry pies are a must. Available from 11am-9pm Tuesday-Sunday.
Cobblers, Cakes, & Kream
As the name suggests, you should definitely concentrate on the cobblers at this Inglewood bakery. That said, they serve all sorts of tasty desserts ranging from ice cream to cupcakes to cinnamon rolls. Open daily from 11am-3:30pm, they’re offering both takeout and delivery.

In reality, most of Fred 62’s diner food is best eaten late at night after several rounds of drinks. Their desserts, however, should be eaten whenever you want. Whether it’s a brownie sundae or any of their tremendous malts and shakes, Fred 62’s desserts will give you that soothing sense of nostalgia we all need right now.

Place your weekly orders every Friday by 5pm for Sunday curbside pickup between 10am-2pm.

Both takeout and delivery is available from their Santa Monica and Mid-Wilshire locations, 11:30am-10pm.

Open Monday-Saturday 11am-8pm and Sundays 11am-5pm.
Van Leeuwen Ice Cream
Ice Cream delivery has its obvious drawbacks, but one place that figured it out is Van Leeuwen. The popular ice shop from NYC now has four locations across LA and each one is offering delivery on most major platforms. Your days of throwing elbows to get the last pint at the supermarket are officially over.
The popular Brentwood pie shop (with a second location in Beverly Grove) is open and baking their vast array of pies from both takeout and delivery. Not only are the pies tasty, they can be made gluten-free or vegan as well. Hours vary by location.
