Mabel's Gourmet Pralines

Firstly, the homemade sweet potato pie was delicious !! Secondly, it was hand delivered even after the bakery had closed for Thanksgiving! Such amazing service! It made my whole holiday!! Thank you

A few really great things happened here. I'm originally from down south, Louisiana to be exact......and I come out here to Long Beach to find an authentic praline spot around the corner from me. Being the self proclaimed comfort foodie that I am....I have to make sure the south is being represented appropriately. LOLWell let me tell u this Linda, the banana pudding, DAMN GOOD. The pecan praline, DAMN GOOD!!! 10/10In conversation with these nice people I found out they are actually from Louisiana too!! (This explains the excitement my tastebuds got to experience.)Great desserts!!!!To my surprise, I'm in the presence of Archie Charles Williams, an American singer who appeared on season 15 of America's Got Talent. If you're in Long Beach, support these nice folks. Get by there and get you some PRALINE, pecan candy & banana pudding.

OMG this is the most amazing banana pudding I have ever had and I have had a lot of it in my life time Sondra hats off to you you make the creamiest pudding ever and the bananas you add are perfect with the vanilla wafer I'll be back YES!

Amazing customer service, the pudding was amazing and the pralines were so good. Me and my friends were just riding bikes when we saw the stand outside and the cookie looking bags when a very sweet lady came out and offered us samples that had everyone gunning for more, so because she was being so sweet I wanted to try the banana pudding, and I don't even like bananas and it was amazing I shared some with my friends and we fought over it until she gave us a second one for free. Another one of my friends ended up buying some too, great people and great food, god bless them truly

Thank you for the complimentary coffee, super unexpected and thoughtful of you . The slice of your pecan pie made my day better with my banana pudding. Happy Holidays :)

The best pudding in America!The pecan pralines are fantastic and the owner is a hard working sweetheart.

If you love banana pudding then this is a must!My BF goes boxing down the street and discovered this place and wanted to take me. We walked in and was greeted by a sweet lady and a man. They had us sample their delicious banana pudding and was really nice answering all our questions. We ended up getting a bag of their gourmet praline, one sugar-free praline to gift, and a banana pudding to eat on the road. The creamy banana pudding was so yummy and perfect after our lunch. The parlines were also super impressive. We ended up giving the sugar-free one to my dad who said he loved it and really enjoyed it. Everything was such at a reasonable price. For larger parties, they recommend calling in an hour advance. The shop is small and is more of a grab and go place but it is cute. The people there are lovely. Cannot wait to come back.

I can't believe I have not wrote a review for this place. I say that because this is my favorite spot! And I take my banana pudding seriously! I have been coming here ever since she opened and before that I would go to farmers market to get her pudding! Perfect in very way! It tastes delicious and fresh every single time. And she makes the pudding from scratch which again you can taste! Mind you I have been to pretty much all places that serve banana pudding Lol! And no one can compare! She is the best and the nicest as well. Great customer service always! She's not open on Mondays and Sundays so plan accordingly. These are the places I want to give 10 stars to because 5 stars isn't enough.Oh and her parlins is the truth as well. Not a fan of candy but she offers reg and sugar free.. both delicious!

I remember how amazed I was when I first tried Mabel's when I was new to the Los Angeles area. Although I have not visited during the pandemic, I did pre-pandemic and was pleased that it is as great as it was during my first experiences. I am not sure if the owner actually remembered me, but I tend to think people do maybe because I made some impression because I have one of those faces or am pretty enthusiastic about food and tend to talk to business owners. The banana pudding was good and I had to eat it all because it would be a while until I get home to a fridge. I have not found any other praline specialty shop. It's one of my favorite desserts. I don't have anything else to add since my last review years ago since they are just as good as I remember them.

Drove 20+ miles today to purchase pralines because the reviews are so good and I wanted to send them to my mom for Mother's Day. The website, Yelp, Google and the lit "Open Sign" in the window, all indicated they are open from noon to 6. I arrived and the door was locked. I called and was told by a very pleasant voice, " Oh, we are open Wednesday to Saturday. " Please update your website and other information. You are one of few options in LA that I hoped knew what a good praline should taste like and with gas at 5.29/gallon, driving 50 miles to be empty handed does not make me want to take a chance again.
