"Joe Gambino's has been making mouths drool in New Orleans since the late 1940s when he bought the Beulah Ledner Bakery name and her recipe for her famous doberge cake, a delicious, multilayered confection with buttercream filling and a caramel glaze on top."

Emma Sloan

"Doberge traditionally comes in two flavors: chocolate and lemon. For the indecisive consumer or taste-divided families, Gambino’s offers a conjoined doberge that is half chocolate and half lemon. These are the two flavors that Ledner created, and Gambino’s honors the tradition."

Leslie T. Snadowsky

"New Orleans is a Doberge town and I cut my teeth, like so many others, on Gambino’s half-Chocolate, half-Lemon masterpieces. Their 6 layers of buttermilk cake are separated by their secret recipe custard filling and covered in buttercream icing and glazed with rich fondant."

Kim Ranjbar

"Stop into the “old-school” bakery on Veterans Avenue in Metairie and with mere pocket change you can indulge in Gambino’s Doberge petits fours! Try lemon, chocolate or caramel."
