Looooooved working with La Louisiane for our wedding cake!! We got a 3-tier wedding cake as well as a King Cake for the groom's cake. Our guests absolutely raved about how deliciou...
s both were, AND they were gorgeous on top of it. We had a destination wedding in New Orleans, and so communication with the vendors was super important for me. La Louisiane was extremely responsive through e-mail and made it so easy to coordinate coming in for our tasting when we were traveling from out of town. I thought the price was very fair also. Really can't say enough good things about working with this vendor!
La Louisiane (or LaLou as we call it) blew our minds away with our wedding cake. We had a tall order for a 4-tiered ombre styled caked with gold butterflies and flowers cascading d...
own. We used one of their prior cakes for inspiration and they went above and beyond how beautiful and delicious it was! There was no cake left whatsoever at our wedding - that's how delicious their products are. Look no further for any event (esp wedding) cake than LaLou. So many compliments from guests - 11/10!
La Louisiane did our wedding cake, and it was a wonderful experience working with them! Shannon was very responsive during the entire planning phase. She made sure she understood m...
y vision and helped my understand what size cake I needed for the number of guests we were expecting. My husband decided he didn’t want a grooms cake, so we ordered cupcakes instead. Because of COVID, Shannon arranged a take home tasting for us, which was a box that we picked up from their office and included different cake and frosting flavors. It was a fun and easy way to choose our cake flavors. In the end, everything we chose was delicious, and our guests raved about it. The cake was also beautiful and exactly what I had envisioned. We are so pleased with La Louisiane, and we definitely look forward to ordering more delicious cakes from them again in the future!
Our wedding cake was from La Louisiane and it was DELICIOUS! I was looking for a bakery that made amazing cakes and was easy to work with and my friend Claire told me that everyone...
at her wedding loved their cakes from La Louisiane. I reached out to La Louisiane and they made the process of selecting and designing the different cake options so much fun and stress free! Everyone who I worked with there is so warm and friendly and our cake turned out perfectly. We heard many people say how tasty it was and we loved it too! I can't wait to eat the top tier on our anniversary.
La Louisiane Bakery did my daughter's wedding cake and we were very happy with it. Not only was it beautiful but it tasted incredible!!! My daughter chose different flavors for t...
he different layers and they were all yummy. We had quite a bit of leftover cake and it was still fresh a week later!! The groom's cake was shaped like a book since the groom loves to write and it was the best chocolate cake I've ever tasted. Our guests raved about the cake and many of them had several pieces. I would absolutely recommend this bakery for your wedding needs.
La Louisiane provided the most delicious cake ever! My now husband was amazed with his grooms cake (chocolate and lemon doberge) as well! I’ve had them quite a few times at other w...
eddings, but there’s something your own wedding cake that is the best! I would highly recommend using La Louisiane for any wedding or event!
I am someone who went to all of the big name bakeries in New Orleans before I found the best bakery in La Louisiane. Other bakeries let you have like 2 cake samples and very few ic...
ing samples. La Lou gave us a full spread of pretty much everything they offer. And it was the freshest cake I had tasted. I had a very specific idea of what I wanted both my wedding cake and the groom's cake to look like, and La Lou actually exceeded my expectations. Not only were they beautiful, but they tasted so fresh. Other bakeries may make your cake early in the week and refrigerate them, but La Lou's cake tasted so fresh on the night of my wedding. They're super easy to work with, flexible with what you want, and overall the most impressive bakery I had encountered during my search. 10/10 recommend.
Provided a great tasting w/ helpful suggestions on combinations of flavors. Fairly priced. Very happy w/ the cake flavors on the day of as well!
Hands down, the best wedding cake we have ever had in our lives! Not only did the cake taste good, but it looked beautiful, too. They were able to accomplish our wishes perfectly. ...
My husband requested a more complicated groom’s cake design and they replicated his vision exactly as expected. The taste test prior to the wedding was the highlight of our wedding planning process! Once you try their cakes, you won’t look anywhere else.
Wow! The crawfish pot groom's cake was amazing! Everyone walked by to look at the details and couldn't believe it was actually a cake. The duck logo and beer bottle were spot on!

e highly recommend this talented and very reasonably priced bakery!
Thank you, Amanda, for your help and correspondence during the two COVID postponements!
This cake was so appropriate for the groom who boils crawfish nearly every weekend during crawfish season.
Thanks again,
Amy Lewis

We found La Louisiane here on the Knot after contacting quite a few bakeries in the New Orleans area. This was a destination wedding for us, so to be able to get consistent communi...
cation and responses back were very important. La Louisiane was the only wedding cake vendor that answered us in a timely manner and had all pricing, what information they needed from us right at the start of planning. We met them in person during a trip down for tastings, and we not only decided on the design of the cake, but also flavor and a dessert table in a matter of one hour. They knew exactly what we wanted and worked very well with our other vendors for the wedding reception. Our guests during and after the wedding are still asking us what flavor cake we had because it was so good! I highly recommend using La Louisiane Bakery especially if you are doing a destination wedding in New Orleans.

Perfect! You place your order and it is delivered exactly as you say without you having any hassle!
La Louisiane was incredible. The cake was absolutely delicious and they were very easy to work with. We got lots of compliments about the cake. More importantly, my daughter wanted...
a tree trunk cake stand which we dropped off to them. They learned a few day’s before the wedding that the wood was really dry, causing it to split and making it unusable. The baker went out of his way to create another piece of wood to reinforce the original tree trunk. It didn’t show and allowed my daughter to have what she really wanted. Truly beyond the call of duty—so kind.
La Louisiane was so great to work with! I wanted a simple cake, but with a double middle tier, and they easily made my vision come to life. They were quick to respond to question...

We got married in NOLA on June 1, 2019 and were out of towners from Houston. It was helpful that LaLou was super responsive and clear in their communication. We went in for an in-p...
erson tasting only once, shared our feedback, and then they nailed it in the finished product. Since I am gluten intolerant, we wanted one tier to be GF. To avoid cross contamination, we had a deconstructed cake with separate tiers. I chose a rose water flavored cake, which was custom and they did a fantastic job making the (blush colored) buttercream icing rose-flavored! My husband chose a chocolate/white chocolate combination for another tier, and a strawberry/vanilla/almond “Bakewell Tart” imitation for the third tier. It was all entirely amazing and we enjoyed cake at the reception and again at brunch the next day!
Thank you LaLou!
We were so happy with La Lou! All of our guests raved about the cake (sadly, we barely ate any because you know how it goes as the bride and groom - but I distinctly remember our c...
ake cutting and taking that first bite and exclaiming "omg that's so good" to all of my guests). You know how you wish you could always do something a little differently after your wedding? Not eating more of La Lou's delicious cake was definitely top of list (but we saved the top tier, so looking forward to that).
We ordered two cakes -one 3-tiered almond cake with lemon mousseline and the other was a single layer cake with coconut mousseline (highly recommend both). Neither lemon or coconut overpowered - was a really nice blend and made it more interesting than plain almond. It was important for us to have something a bit interesting that would appeal to most guests, so this combination worked really well : )
Beyond how delicious the cake actually tasted, it was simply gorgeous. We wanted them decorated as "scrape" and the other as a "swirl" and both with cascading flowers (done by our florist), and the presentation couldn't have met my vision better. Additionally, Amanda is a gem and so easy to work with, plus super attentive to detail. Everything happened as we requested. We so enjoyed how she accommodated us at the cake tasting and helped me decide on the final cakes (I was a stressed out, indecisive bride, so Amanda's approach was on point). Cake was delivered to our venue (~20 miles away) on time with no issues at all. Finally, if you are on a budget like we were, we were happy at such a reasonable price for what I described above. A+ review, would highly recommend them!

I did not expect to get a cake because I don't like fondant and didn't even realize there was such a thing as a "naked" cake until I saw it at other people's weddings. I also thou...
ght I would just get dessert, but as it turns out, getting a cake was more affordable than getting dessert at my venue. I saw a La Louisiane cake at my venue's instagram and after reading the reviews, expect it to be super expensive. I was surprised by how affordable our naked red velvet cake was! It was also DELICIOUS! Moister than I expected and the frosting was not too sweet. LaLou also did our desserts and I can particularly recommend the sugar cookies and key lime pie which were particular favorites. I would not hesitate to go back here if I had another event.
La Louisiane baked our wedding cake for our destination wedding in Nola. They came highly recommended by our venue and we could easily see why. Hands down the most moist and flavor...

We chose traditional almond cake with almond and raspberry jam filling topped with 50/50 Swiss and American buttercream frosting. This review is making me want more!
Growing up in this city, many weddings have the standard wedding cakes. They're usually good and very pretty, but no one really seems to love it. Well kids, look no further on a ca...
ke you and your guests will LOVE. I had reservations at first, as I had never heard of them, but the reviews are stellar. The tasting plate was so immaculately done, and Amanda really took the time to understand our vision.
TLDR: Best wedding cake you've never heard of - worth it!!!!!!
They screwed up our wedding cake... I'm torn in writing this review. On one hand, I strongly believe that La Lou makes the absolute best cake I've ever had. On the other hand, I wa...
s beyond disappointed in my own wedding cake. Despite multiple confirmations -- including the week before -- my cake was wrong. Of course no one would know this until we actually cut into the cake... It looked the part, but the whole reason we chose this bakery over another, more reasonably priced bakery was left out of our cake completely. When I brought this up to them after returning to town, they admitted an error on one tier but claimed I was wrong on the remaining tiers. My photos came in and proved the cake was done incorrectly. I advised the bakery of this and all I got was a "whoops". This bakery is not cheap and I'm disappointed that when they screwed up our wedding cake, there was no attempt at making it right.
Beautiful cake... finished product as requested. Very good ... lots of guest compliments
La Louisiane absolutely killed it!! They were so excited about our grooms cake idea and went all out to make it perfect. We did four different types of cake flavors and they were a...

My husband and I planned our wedding from afar, with only a list of recommendations from our venue. We both LOVE cake, but only had websites and reviews to go off of. I ended up si...
mply picking one off the list and crossing my fingers that they would get the job done. In my mind, it's wedding cake, and wedding cake is never really special. Boy was I wrong. Wedding cake CAN be special and taste amazing. We were blown away at our tasting. They had so many options for cakes and fillings, we ended up going with three different cakes and fillings because they were all that good. They were so easy and accommodating to work with, were patient while we waited on my husband to settle on a grooms cake, and the cakes were both stunning to look at and delicious to eat. I highly, highly suggest working with La Louisiane.
I cannot say enough great things about the wedding cake and grooms cake that La Louisiane made for our wedding. The were Perfection!! I provided pictures to the bakery of what I ...
wanted, and the cakes completely exceeded my expectations. They were so beautifully decorated, and they tasted AMAZING. These were without a doubt the best cakes I have ever tasted. All of my guests kept asking for more cake, and the venue had to set some aside for us to take home because it was getting eaten so quickly. I would highly recommend this bakery not only for their beautiful cake decorating, but also for the delicious taste!
Choosing La Louisiane for my daughter's wedding cake was definitely the right choice. It was our first stop on the tastings of 5 different bakeries. Although all the bakeries ha...
d great ratings and reviews, the others did not even come close to La Louisiana, they were disappointing. Amanda was fantastic to work with. She was so easy to communicate with and delivered the most beautiful wedding cake and groom's cake! Not only was it exquisite, but it was so delicious. Our guests were going back for seconds and raved about the cake. We chose the pistachio and the almond mousseline fillings, and they were equally as delicious. I cannot say enough good things about the cake. I highly recommend La Louisiane and it was one of the best decisions we made! I wish I could give more than 5 stars!
Amanda is so nice and easy to work with and responds to emails promptly! We had our wedding cake and grooms king cake made from them and they were so delicious! I received raving r...

to work with, taking my inspiration photos and turning them into the cakes of our dreams. Our guests could't believe how beautiful they were!
I highly recommend this bakery for all of your wedding cake needs.
I loved everything from the ordering, tasting, and invoicing of this cake vendor. However, on the day of my wedding this vendor almost did not make it at all. The venue called them...
several times (more than 5 times) and no response. There was no update or communication on what was going on. So my cake arrived right when I was walking down the aisle--- only 3 hours later than what everyone was told. This lack of communication or caring is just irritating and even more infuriating on a stressful day. They make great cakes but the business aspect is lacking. I do not need to chase a cake vendor after paying for it.
La Louisiane Bakery was amazing. We wanted a stained glass cake topper and they exceeded our expectations. The cupcakes were delicious!!! I was going to have to rent a cupcake s...
