Scottsdale, Arizona, is often named one of America’s best places to live by magazines such as Money Magazine, Robb Report, and Relocate America. But it may have to share the honor since Scottsdale also has the best desserts in the world, but that might be one reason that Scottsdale real estate is so in demand. In fact, the World Pastry Team Championship broadcast on TLC took place at the JW Marriot Desert Ridge Resort & Spa in nearby Phoenix, Arizona.

One of 2010’s top ten pastry chefs was Roy Pell of The Phoenician, Scottsdale, AZ. The Phoenician has won several culinary awards including Roy Pell 2009 Team USA, World Pastry Cup, the Lobby Tea Court 2009 Best Place for Afternoon Tea, and Master Baker 2009 Best Bread for Dessert for his Chocolate Cherry Sourdough Bread.

Scottsdale also features many premier resorts and restaurants, and that means it has some top rated dessert spots including the Gelato Spot, Sugar Bowl Ice Cream Parlor, Sweet Republic, and Sprinkles Cupcakes.

- Another top rated ice cream spot since1958 is the Sugar Bowl Ice Cream Parlor, an old fashioned eatery.

The Sugar Bowl shop offers Family Circus art for purchase along with other Sugar Bowl memorabilia.

- Sweet Republic artisan ice cream is made using milk and cream from independent Arizona dairy farms and ice cream sticks made from birch wood sustainably harvested in Maine. It was voted The Best in Phoenix and one of USA Today’s best ice cream parlors.

- Sprinkles Cupcakes, located across from Scottsdale Fashion Square, is the original cupcake bakery. It offers more than 20 regular flavors and a handful of seasonal cupcakes such as peppermint.
