7 Riyadh Dessert Spots Worth Saving Room For

It’s time to satisfy that sweet tooth! World Dessert Day falls on October 16, and we’ve rounded up some of Riyadh’s dessert spots you’ll want to try.

1. Chèrie

This Al Muruj café and bakery is serving up freshly baked cinnamon rolls in flavors that are hard to pick between. There’s chocolate, raspberry and cream, and pecan caramel, so ordering one might not be enough.

2. Al Mamlaka

Need a full cake to celebrate? Al Mamlaka 1980 serves a full London Cake. Add extra chocolate sauce on top for an even richer bite. It’s chocolate overload in the best way.

3. Ice Slice

Satisfy your sweet tooth with the viral fruit ice cream bites- fun, delicious, and Instagram-worthy.

4. Rüya

At Riyadh’s Rüya, they do Turkish sweets a bit differently. The flaky baklava pairs perfectly with the creamy ice cream, and they also serve hazelnut baklava and Turkish delights if you want more variety.

Lokum Diyari is the place for Turkish delight lovers in Riyadh. They have so many flavors — chocolate, fruity, nutty — all neatly packed in beautiful boxes.

6. Habibah Sweets

Ranked as one of the best dessert spots in the world, Habibah Sweets offers premium Arabic desserts. Celebrate with a big piece of Kunafa!
