    Red Velvet Cake
    Christopher P.

    Debbie Does Doberge is one of the best and most creative bakeries with respect to doberge cakes. They have an array of flavors for every palate i closing chocolate, lemon, meter, red velvet, etc. When ordering cakes staff has always been helpful and when I've been in a pinch they've been helpful with getting me whatever flavor they had prepared. DBD has been operating within Bakery Bar which is a super cute location in a small renovated building where you can have drinks, dessert, and even food options.

    Rose, grasshopper, bourbon with deliciousness

    Excellent place when you're craving doberge cakes and sweets. Full bar to wash down the sweetness you're about to devour. This out of towner will definitely be back. Even though their machine for their sorbet was out of order (I was truly bummed), you have a plethora of choices to satisfy your sweet tooth.

    I love the service here. They're so sweet and patient! I got a whole cake for my graduation party and it was delicious! I'll definitely come back here again!!

    King cake bites

    As much as I love actual king cake, the king cake doberge bites may be the best king cake I have ever put in my mouth. Because they are individually made, they tasted as fresh as the day I picked them up several days later. The cream cheese flavor is absolutely perfect- not too sweet, just sweet enough. Incredible. Not to mention so pretty and elegant! The peppermint bark bites were a wonderful treat on Christmas Day and again very balanced in flavor. The triple chocolate is the intense chocolate explosion you're looking for. There are so many more flavors I want to try in addition to doberge shakes, which look amazing (highly recommend following DDD on Instagram).

    Salted caramel and bacon Doberge cake! Amazing!!

    Thanks to my Yelp buddies I learned about Debbie Does Doberge and where to obtain this delicacy! A college friend of mine who lives in Canada was in town and we decided to go to Toup's for dinner to catch up. Before we even ordered appetizers I informed my friend and the waitress that we were definitely getting a slice of Debbie Does Doberge cake! Now I'm not normally one to order desserts much less rave about them (with the white chocolate bread pudding at the Palace Cafe and the bread pudding with whiskey sauce from Desire as exceptions) but the salted caramel bacon Doberge cake was out of this world! OMFG, our sweet waitress told me about the other different flavored they've had like pistachio (yes please!), Red velvet (heck yeah even though I know it's just chocolate cake dyed red), etc. Would it be wrong to go to Toup's just for dessert! I mean Toup's is fantastic (review forthcoming) but I can see this being a decadent treat after a hard day! Happy Doberge eating!!

    We had a great experience with Debbie Does Doberge for our wedding. We had to reschedule multiple times due to COVID and they were very responsive, organized and flexible throughout the process. They even worked with us to do a special order even though their bakery wasn't fully reopened after the hurricane. Our guests loved the cake flavors and it was fun and festive to offer "dobites" along with our cutting cake.

    Items Tasted: Sweet Potato Pie Doberge Slice Turtle Doberge Slice Rainbow Wedding Cake Doberge Slice Velvet Elvis Doberge Bite, Bloody S'mores Doberge Bite, Fig and White Chocolate Doberge Bite One of those "why didn't someone think of this sooner?" situations, where a simple conversation hatched a business plan that somehow found an audience, Debbie Does Doberge is owned by the team of Charlotte McGehee and Charles Mary, their take on New Orleans' classic layer cake previously sold only by pre-order now offered by the slice at the couple's "Bakery Bar." Surely an interesting idea, the former dive at 1179 Annunciation Street just beneath the Pontchartrain Expressway reinvented as a place for "Sweets and Drinks" from before noon until midnight daily, Bakery Bar initially opened as the official point-of-sales for Debbie Does Doberge in April 2016 and now joined by a limited selection of savories the small corner-store has officially caught fire, the space nearly 2/3 full at the time of our Thursday 4:00pm arrival. Far more appealing in appearance than the pudding cake from Joe Gambino's, the texture also better with smooth Buttercream dividing soft layers as stiffer, boiled Icing helps each wedge hold its form, Ms. McGehee follows a modified version of the Hungarian Dobos Torta recipe 'invented' by Beulah Ledner during the Great Depression in building her creations, a half-dozen or more flavors offered daily by slice or as small pyramidal 'bites' for the indecisive. Making difficult decisions to maximize variety, three slices and a trio of bites shared amongst the group, even the most ardent descendent of Hungary would be hard-pressed to claim "Debbie's" cakes anything short of excellent, the Rainbow-themed Wedding Cake as sweet as it was colorful while the "Sweet Potato Pie" was completely opposite the heavy Southern Classic in terms of texture, though the flavor was precisely like it. Having just passed Halloween, "Bloody S'mores" both Cocoa-rich and nicely accented with Cinnamon at the same time, equally complex pairings were found amidst the Peanut Butter and Banana bite as well as the White Chocolate coated Figgy Pudding, the best of the best nonetheless agreed upon by all as the Pecan-studded Milk-Chocolate slice with lightly salted Caramel.

    I couldn't have been more excited when Charles of Debbie Does Doberge told me, despite 12 Mile being closed for renovations this past weekend, that Triple Ds was still rollin' out their delicious Doberge cakes. My sister who resides in Portland and is getting married in September had a crawfish boil for friends and family down here that couldn't make the trip, and this traditional New Orleans layered cake was exactly what I wanted for them to enjoy. I looked on their website (which looks great in mobile view) to prep my order to call it in on Thursday to be ready for Saturday. Charles was super pleasant, and let me know what information he needed to make it happen. We ordered 2 8" cakes for $40/each, one Red Velvet and one Chocolate, which they estimate to be between 12 -24 slices depending on how you're...well...slicing. Since 12 Mile wasn't open at the time, they offered free delivery. I asked them to deliver between 10 and 1pm, and they arrived somewhere in between, but had also shot me a phone call to let me know they were on their way. The cakes...Y'all... A thing of beauty as you can see by the pictures. I was slicing and dicing like a ninja till the Red Velvet was but crumbs and the Chocolate was on its way. I've never seen so many adults look at me with the same eyes a kid gives an ice cream truck man. I did get a slice, and the cakes were moist, flavorful, and perfect for the occasion. My only regret is not ordering bigger cakes...and milk. Definitely have some ice cold milk on hand! Just a word of advice, make sure to have a really good cake server utensil. Mine wasn't the best and the layers suffered on occasion into a mass pile of layers (though ya know that's still delicious!) I can't wait to have another occasion to order from DDD, and try some of their other flavors!

I decided to try the miso udon carbonara as well since they announced it as a regular menu item. It's so buttery and flavorful, and the udon noodles are perfect. I got the spam musubi just because I hadn't had one in some years, and it was really good. Nostalgia won this time! I'll be back for other sandos and more treats! The menu has so many options!

The gentleman that was making our drinks didn't really seem like he wanted to be there and wasn't as friendly as the others. We love Asian inspired flavors like pandan and ube and this place had it all! There were so many innovative and unique ice cream flavors like Vietnamese coffee, lychee, pandan coconut, etc. It was a little overwhelming at first because there was just so many desserts and drinks to choose from! They also had cafe drinks and we ordered a few to try! I had the banana pudding matcha latte and it's honestly one of the better matcha lattes I've had. There were scoops of banana pudding in the matcha both on the bottom and top. Each sip had that delicious banana flavor (not artificial) along with the matcha. It wasn't too sweet and banana goes extremely well with the matcha. My SIL had the lavender matcha latte and she enjoyed it as well. Lavender can overpower alot of flavors if not done right and they did it right here! The flavors were balanced well without it being too floral. My husband had the latte with pandan cream foam and what he loved about it was that he can taste the pandan flavor. Pandan is a very light and delicate flavor so it can get a bit muddled with other flavors. I tried it and the pandan's flavor was bold and bright. Mixed with the espresso and milk and it was creamy and delicious. We also got three cookies to try: Vietnamese coffee, ube, and pandan coconut. The cookies were about $5 a pop but they were so worth it! They were all huge and jam stuffed with either chocolate chips, coconut, or white chocolate chips! I am literally still dreaming about the cookies! My favorite cookie was probably the pandan coconut one but the ube and Vietnamese coffee one were close. The Vietnamese coffee cookie was good but the flavor of the coffee could be stronger. I do appreciate how rich and decadent each cookie was and I will absolutely come back just for the cookies haha. They had a bunch of different and unique flavors too! We also got some ice cream to try. My husband had the pandan coconut and SIL got the cream cheese red velvet. They know how to make their ice cream right that's for sure. The flavors were like a punch to your face (in a good way) and we all agreed that they were both delicious. I'm knocking one star off because the service could be a little friendlier. Can't wait to come back and try more desserts off their menu (they had cakes, macarons, etc.).

I think she mentioned something else but I don't remember the extra either. What I do remember is it was really good. My go to snowball anywhere is usually green apple but I'm glad I tried this one. I'd get it again. I noticed something about most of the snowball places around...they all use the snow wizard ice machine. But the crazy thing is, all of their ice isn't the same. This place figured ice out!! SO SOFT! Only downside and it's not their fault, it's in a rather busy strip so if you can't find parking out front...Beware McDonald's parking across the street. They tow as if they need all those parking spaces...I don't think I've ever seen a full McDonald's parking lot in life. Lol Anyway, 10/10 and cool points for entertaining my little chatterbox baby.

From the cute aesthetic to the amazing owner and staff, this place deserves wayyyy more hype. I love matcha and I've found a lot of places' matcha are too thin or not flavored enough. The matchas I've had at Nectar+Ice (banana bread & baklava) are so creamy and delicious! They also have snoballs, lattes and affogato so everyone can enjoy them. The owner was very helpful and also let me sample the weekly soft serve special which was also yummy. The only reason it's not a perfect 10 is the small space (can get a bit crowded during a rush) and its hours are only from Wed-Sat.
