  Looking for bakery recommendations Hi! My husband and I are visiting New Orleans for his 30th birthday this year, we'll be there on the day (May 15), so I'm trying to find some recommendations for a bakery to surprise him a treat. I found a few lists of good bakeries online, but I want to hear from you! He loves double chocolate cakes, so anywhere in particular that does this really well? What about a dessert item that's traditionally New Orleanian? Beignets and king's cake are the first things I think of when I think of New Orleans sweets, but is there anything else you would recommend a tourist try?

  Haydels or Gambinos are good bakeries. My first thought for a Nola cake was Doberge cake and there's also a bakery called "Debbie Does Doberge" that you might find yummy cakes at 😉 I've never been but I'm guessing they're good at that type of cake! -http://debbiedoesdoberge.com/ -http://www.gambinos.com/mobile/ -https://www.haydelbakery.com/site.php

  You can get year-round king cakes from Haydel's if that's what you want. Doberge is a good suggestion as well - Gambin's was the original doberge baker, I believe, but Debbie Does Doberge is more creative with flavors. If you just want chocolate on chocolate, Gambino's will suffice. If neither of those cakes are what you want, Shake Sugary is my regular cake recommendation with Cake Cafe following right behind them.

  Try Haydel's Bakery. They offer the Blackout cake which is chocolate on chocolate. You have to order it though, they don't keep it in a case. They also have King Cakes year round but you will have to order that as well. They also also have doberge cakes which they usually always have on hand. Debbie Does Doberge is the hot new doberge place but I haven't tried it. I think Gambino's is terrible. Still riding off the namesake from years ago. Try the Russian Cake at Haydel's if you love crazy, Nola desserts. But only if you like the anise flavor. Cannoli's at Angelo Brocato's and Spumoni with an espresso is the reason for living. (Sorry I have a huge sweet tooth and I'm pregnant FWIW)...

  Debbie Does Doberge! We discovered it by eating at Katie's Restaurent in Nola. There is no going back. Best Doberge in Nola hands down. The cake you order is made fresh the morning of pickup day.

  mildlyabsurd asked:

  does anyone know of any new orleans style bakeries in the area? my friend from new orleans' favorite dessert is a "lemon doberge cake." does anyone know of any places in the area that specializes in or can make these kinds of cakes? edit: looking for a place that will sell the whole cake, not just by the slice.

  If you can't find it here in DC, you could always get one shipped in from NO. Expensive, of course. Found one for $69, shipping included, next day delivery: https://haydelbakery.com/Lemon-Doberge-Cake- Here's another, and I'm sure you can find more online: http://debbiedoesdoberge.com/
