Debbie Does Doberge

Celebrated a friend's birthday in town and opted for the classic local cake.Pros:- Seamless online ordering, responsive phone service for changing pickup times - Very friendly staff- The birthday girl and the group enjoyed the cake, though I found it a bit too sweet for my taste.- The 6" half lemon/half chocolate definitely serves more than 6-8 people Cons:Not my preferred type of cake, but still glad I gave it a try

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.

Came to see what the hype was about at bakery bar and I must confess this visit and subsequent review is solely based on their cake bites.The employees there are attentive and pleasant mannered. Also the place was dimly lit which really set a good vibe at the bar. As for the cake bites, they are about 1" squared in size and $3 a piece...We got 6 pieces all different flavors and paid around $20 including taxes. So already I'm staring at what looks like a small piece of cake that I paid $20 for. I ate the Oreo one first and was overwhelmed by the sweetness of the frosting that coated the outside of the cake bite. The ratio is definitely off.You can't even discern the different flavors of the bites because of the overwhelming sweetness of the frosting.It's a hard pass for me on their cake bites.

We traveled to New Orleans as a family to celebrate three birthdays, so I did some research to figure out where I could get a cake and came across Debbie Does Doberge. I was so excited about this New Orleans specialty and the variety of flavors to choose from. It was super easy to place my order online ahead of time and select Bakery Bar as my pickup location.The cake was ready for pickup on the date that I requested and the entire process was seamless.My biggest regret from the entire trip is that I forgot to take a photo of the cake - it was just gorgeous! We ordered the Spiked Samoa flavor and it was a huge hit with our group. I am not really a cake person, but I loved this unique and delicious treat. Highly recommend!

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!!

I am a true sweets lover, so I had high expectations of their doberge. I am sorry to say that they were so sweet that you could not taste the flavors underneath. A little better balance between sugar and labor would go a long way.

This is NOT a doberge cake. I'm in my 50's and have been eating doberge since I was a kid. We ordered a cake from here based on reviews to be sorely disappointed. The chocolate filling isn't chocolaty. It was bland, light brown (more like tan) and had the texture of vinyl. The lemon side had similar texture and poor flavor, though better than the chocolate. The cake itself is just a plain cheap tasting sponge cake. Again, not a doberge style. And finally, the icing was more of just regular icing and not very close to a doberge type icing. Overall the cake seemed like it was made from cheap, poor quality ingredients, but it cost $80 bucks. Pretty lame.

Amazing doberge cake. I recommend and will buy from again. The service was great. Trying a traditional Doberge cake is a must in New Orleans.

As the name suggests, this is all about (Doberge) cake. And it's really, really excellent cake, conveniently available, with good service, at a good value. What more could be asked for from a cake shop?I've tried about a half dozen flavors, all have been very good. I think the best (to my surprise) was the peppermint -- which, if I remember correctly, is actually a red velvet cake with peppermint. The lemon is also memorable, whether on its own or with a (at-home) topping of blueberries. The only flavor I felt at all disappointed with is chocolate, even though chocolate is my favorite kind of cake... it wasn't bad, but just tasted more like a normal chocolate cake... if you're in the mood for chocolate, I'd recommend the "black and gold" instead, basically the chocolate cake with salvaged caramel added.(Credit to the staff: both peppermint and black-and-gold were recommended by the server. They were right on both counts!)They do have some other items (cookies, cookie sandwiches, cakes with alcohol) that I'd like to try eventually, too.
