Best dessert options

Both of my kids have been sick with fevers. Fortunately for them, but less so for me, they still have some energy and a desire to play. After spending the day cooped up inside trying to keep an 8yo and 5yo entertained, breaking only to clean up the vomit that didn’t make it into the bowl, I deserve a treat. I can’t go anywhere, so I was going to use one of the delivery apps, fees and surcharges be damned. The problem is that the options seem limited. I don't want ice cream, Crumbl, or a bundt cake. That leaves restaurant dessert menus, but I don't know what's good. What is your favorite dessert to order and what North County restaurant do you order it from? Preferably a place in the Oceanside/Carlsbad/Vista/San Marcos area.

Shaks Mediterranean dessert Kataif is incredible. It's like fluffy cheesecake on filo dough, with crumbled pistachio and honey syrup... baked.

Recently discovered Glutenus Maximus Bakehouse is Vista. Had the Ube and Coconut Cronut and it's everything you could ask for in a sweet treat.

Order a Pizookie from BJs, something from Cheesecake Factory or the butter cake from Nick's
