"Debbie Does Doberge is a newcomer to the scene, dishing up doberge at Bakery Bar, a chill space with nibbles and drinks and a cake case towards the back. Order doberge in flavors like salted caramel, red velvet and praline or sit at the bar and tuck into a slice to see what all the fuss is about."

Ian McNulty

"During Carnival season, order a king cake-flavored doberge cake with eight layers of pudding and cream cheese inside with buttercream and poured fondant on the outside. Pudding flavors include cream cheese, lemon, blackberry, blueberry and strawberry."

Anne Roderique-Jones

"Bakery Bar—a cocktail den and sweet shop folded into one—is the storefront for Debbie Does Doberge, the city’s finest maker, who’s expanded the traditional chocolate and lemon variety to include more than 30 flavors, filling each with seven layers of pudding and poured fondant."

Pableaux Johnson

"A modern twist and most delicious outlier. A King Cake doberge cake is a wonderful (if unexpected) combination of two beloved New Orleans traditions."

Babes and Beignets

"If you haven’t tried Debbie’s Doberge or been to Bakery Bar, you’re missing out. We may or may not be guilty of eating doberge at least once a month. So, what is doberge? Six to eight layers of white or yellow cake with custard, curd or ganache filling and poured fondant."

Katie Hendrick

"The real hedonistic treat is the New Orleans classic, the doberge cake: an eight-layer confection of flour and pudding, coated with ganache, and finished with poured fondant icing. With Debbie’s 35 available flavors, paring down the contenders can feel like an impossible challenge. A solid choice: salted caramel."

Kim Ranjbar

"Debbie’s creativity with Doberge seems to be boundless, as she has offered everything from key lime and root beer float to sweet potato pancake to watermelon and blueberry."
