We've rounded up the tastiest bites from this week's posts so you don't miss anything delicious!

This Week in Serious Eats: Sweets

1. 8 Cheesecake Recipes We Love
"Cheesecakes are a great idea for spring entertaining. They bridge the gap between fortifying winter cakes and the frozen sweets of summer."

2. 7 Butter Cakes We Love in Philadelphia
"Butter cake isn't always the easiest food to find. It tends to proliferate in German bakeries, mostly in the Northeastern reaches of the city, the likes of which don't generally have websites or Twitter feeds. But it's worth seeking out, and here are 7 spots that I think are worth a trip."

3. Sweet Technique: How to Make Toffee
"Such flavors! Such texture! One taste of buttery, nutty, coffee, chocolate, sweet, salty, crunchy goodness and I became an addict."

4. Share Your Sweets: French Desserts and Treats
"Airy chouquettes, buttery sables, flaky croissants—your iterations on French pastry have us dreaming of Paris."

5. Taste Test: Chocolate-covered Toffee Bars: Heath, Daim, and Skor
"What kind of battle pits an American against a Swede against an American sort of posing as a Swede? The battle of mass-market, chocolate-covered, almond-flavored toffee bars. In other words, Heath vs. Daim. vs. Skor."

6. First Look: Dessert Tasting Menu at Atelier Crenn, San Francisco
"The joy of the tasting menu is that each dish is so carefully thought out. Each plate has many components, a myriad of separate bites which can be combined and recombined, creating new flavors and textures."

7. Dairy Queen's Caramel Delight Pie Blizzard
"Under that pile of whipped topping is a Blizzard that's loaded with plenty to get excited about. "

8. Cookie Monster: Caramel Pecan Squares
"The base is deeply flavored with caramel and the pecans get nice and toasty—a bite floods your mouth with the flavor of praline."

9. Scoop the Book: Bi-Rite Creamery's Buttermilk Ice Cream
"It's bright and twangy, and as you start making pies and cobblers with every fruit that comes your way, it's the ice cream that you want plopped on top."

10. Chocoholic: Double Chocolate Glazed Doughnut Holes
"Crispy, cakey, chocolaty, coconuty, pop-in-your-mouth doughnuts that are super easy to make? What's not to love?"
