2026 Best of NKY Winner: Little Flour
For the eighth consecutive year, Little Flour Baked Goods has earned a place among Northern Kentucky's favorites—this time taking home the title of Best Dessert in the 2026 Best of NKY Awards. The recognition continues an extraordinary streak for the Fort Mitchell bakery, which has been nominated and won in at least one category every year for the past eight years.
“Best Dessert” 2026
In 2026, Little Flour Baked Goods was awarded a “Best of NKY” award for the 8th year in a row!
In an industry where trends come and go, Little Flour's continued success speaks to something far more lasting: quality, consistency, and community.
Founded by Elizabeth Hughes and inspired by the cherished recipes of her grandmother Mimi, Little Flour was built on a simple philosophy—use the finest ingredients, bake from scratch, and create desserts that bring people together. From the beginning, the bakery has prioritized craftsmanship over shortcuts, producing everything from custom celebration cakes and wedding desserts to cookies, brownies, cupcakes, macarons, and seasonal specialties.
What sets Little Flour apart isn't just what comes out of the oven—it's the experience. Customers return year after year for milestone moments: birthdays, weddings, graduations, baby showers, and countless celebrations in between. Every dessert is made with intention, transforming ordinary occasions into lasting memories.
Winning Best Dessert in 2026 is more than another award on the shelf. It is a reflection of the trust and loyalty of the Northern Kentucky community that has supported the bakery since its earliest days. For eight years running, voters have recognized Little Flour as one of the region's very best—a remarkable achievement in a competitive culinary landscape.
As Little Flour celebrates this milestone, the team remains focused on the values that earned them this recognition in the first place: fresh ingredients, scratch-made recipes, creativity, and genuine care for every customer who walks through the door.
The award may be for dessert, but the recipe for success has always been much bigger than sweets. It's about community, tradition, and creating moments worth celebrating.
Congratulations to the entire Little Flour Baked Goods team on being named Best Dessert in Northern Kentucky for 2026—and on an incredible eight-year legacy of excellence.
