Calling all Boston Cream Pie lovers! Want to know where to find the best versions of the classic New England cake-meets-pie confection? We’ve rounded up a list of our favorites!
Omni Parker House
Every New Englander should venture here to sample Boston cream pie at its birthplace. Chef Sanzian’s 1856 recipe lives on in creamy glory. 60 School St., Boston, MA. 617-227-8600; omnihotels.comRosie’s Bakery
Judy Rosenberg makes some of the best cakes in Boston, and her cream pie is no exception: golden and buttery, with a rich chocolate glaze. 9 Boylston St., Chestnut Hill, MA; 617-277-5629. 243 Hampshire St., Cambridge, MA; 617-491-9488. 2 South Station, Boston, MA; 617-439-4684. rosiesbakery.comNoRA Cupcake Company
A frequent winner of regional “Best of” awards, this Connecticut bakery makes cupcakes in flavors that run from classic (vanilla) to quirky (bourbon blackberry fizz). NoRA’s Boston cream pie version packs big chocolate and vanilla flavors into a small package. 700 Main St., Middletown, CT. 860-788-3150; noracupcake.comLittle Bigs
We can’t talk about Boston cream pie without mentioning its kissing cousin, the Boston cream doughnut, and the folks at this gourmet bakery make theirs with vanilla-scented filling and quality chocolate in the glaze. 340 Main St., South Portland, ME. 207-747-4233; facebook.com/LittleBigsScialo Brothers Bakery
Boston cream pie is hardly Italian, but most Italian bakeries sell some variation of it. Scialo’s version is so good that chef Lidia Bastianich featured it on her PBS TV series. 257 Atwells Ave., Providence, RI. 401-421-0986; scialobakery.com
