If autumn has you dreaming of cinnamon rolls and apple cider donuts, you're not alone. Something about the fresh crispness in the fall air makes it the perfect time of year to enjoy a warm beverage, ideally with a sweet treat alongside it. That's why our real estate agents are eager to share some of their favorite bakeries in Dayton, Ohio. 

• Partial to Pie Bakery - 200 Shroyer Rd, Dayton, OH 45419
  If you're a pie fan (and aren't we all?), then you'll definitely want to pay a visit to Partial to Pie Bakery this season. Though the folks at this establishment create a wide variety of baked goods, the focus is unquestionably on its namesake. The daily menu includes a wide range of fruit pies, including apple, mixed berry, peach, cherry, and blackberry, and you have the option to order a whole 9" pie, a 5" mini-pie, a single-serving pie pocket, or an individual slice of any flavor. There are also some tempting quiches and savory pies on the menu, and Partial to Pie Bakery takes custom orders for any occasion. Perfect for celebrating the holiday season near Dayton homes for sale.
  
  
• Val's Bakery - 25 S St Clair St, Dayton, OH 45402
  Established in 2020 and known for its colorful and creative pastries, Val's Bakery is an exceptionally great bakery in Downtown Dayton. The confections here have proved so popular that Val's has been forced to limit customers to buying two pastries per flavor per day. From butter tarts and rosemary honey cake to croissants in 10 different flavors, there's a lot of great stuff to choose from here, not to mention excellent coffee and espresso.
  
  
• Ele Cake Co. - 810 E Dixie Dr, Dayton, OH 45449
  With locations in West Carrollton, Beavercreek, and Austin Landing, Ele Cake Co. is much more than a cake shop. While they do offer truly exceptional cakes, this place is also a coffee shop, wine bar and bistro, and its offerings are as diverse as they are delicious. It's a great spot to stop in for brunch or lunch. That being said if it's cake (or cupcakes) you're looking for, you will definitely not be disappointed. Ele Cake Co. makes cakes for any occasion or for no occasion at all, and their fall- and Halloween-themed cupcakes are the ideal sweet treat to celebrate the season. 
  
  
• Big Sky Bread Co. - 3070 Far Hills Ave c, Dayton, OH 45429
  There's an art to creating a perfect loaf of bread, and as anyone who has visited Big Sky Bread Co. will tell you, this spot in the Dayton suburb of Kettering has mastered it. Fresh bread is baked and sold daily here, just as it has been since the shop opened in 1996. Honey whole wheat, German rye, challah and sourdough are just a few of the varieties that are consistently available. And don't worry about satisfying your sweet tooth because you'll also find their display case stocked with cookies, muffins, cinnamon rolls, and more. 
  
  
• Ashley's Pastry Shop - 21 Park Ave, Dayton, OH 45419
  A beloved family-owned Dayton bakery since 1982, Ashley's Pastry Shop has a loyal following, and for good reason. The cookies, coffee cakes, cupcakes, donuts and breakfast pastries here are consistently some of the best in town, not to mention scratch-made bread and rolls. Ashley's Pastry Shop also offers a rotating selection of seasonal and specialty items, and now is the time to pick up a few sweets for fall, Halloween or football season.
