The Enormous Slices Of Cake From This New Orleans Bakery Will Give You The Ultimate Sugar Rush

Doberge cakes have been a long-time staple of celebratory events for New Orleanians for many years. Ever since the 1930s when Beulah Ledner invented the cake that was inspired by the Hungarian sponge cake, New Orleanians have embraced this specialty cake with open arms and an open mouth. This one bakery in New Orleans serves an enormous slice of Doberge cake that will give you the ultimate sugar rush. Let’s check it out.

Located on Annunciation Street near the Lower Garden District, Debbie’s is taking the traditional Doberge cake to new levels.

If you're not familiar, Doberge cake consists of seven layers of cake with six layers of flavored pudding and a fondant icing. It's truly a one-of-a-kind cake you'll only find in New Orleans.

While chocolate and lemon are the traditional flavors of this Crescent City classic, Debbie’s does just about every flavor you could imagine.

Their options rotate often, but you can expect to see unique flavors like chocolate bourbon praline (pictured below)

Hope you've come hungry, because their slices are enormous!

They also sell little dobites, which are pint-sized versions of the original.

Debbie Does Doberge is open six days a week.

Address: 1179 Annunciation Street, New Orleans, LA, 70130
