Yummy in my tummy! If you’re staying short-term in Shreveport LA rentals, you know that a delicious bakery treat makes for the perfect afternoon pick-me-up or breakfast snack before work. In this post, we’ll discuss five top bakeries you won’t want to miss while living in Northern Louisiana.
Desserts that Hit the Spot
As we discussed in a previous post, Louisiana is famous for celebrating Mardi Gras. This includes the traditional King Cake. Many of the bakeries below sell King Cakes, but also offer other options that your tastebuds will savor.
- Julie Ann’s Bakery & Cafe is a must visit bakery!
Their extensive selection of baked goods includes pies such as Blueberry Crumb, Double Crust Peach, caramel Chocolate Pecan and more. They also have cinnamon rolls, pesto bread, French bread etc. Prefer cookies and cakes? Julie Ann’s can help you with those too! The Bakery is open Monday-Saturday and can ship some of their items if you’d prefer to order over the phone. - Lowder Baking Company offers a large selection of cookie cakes as well as breakfast pastries. You can order from their online shop or even choose some of their “Take & Bake Cookie Dough” to make at home in your Shreveport LA rental.
- Buttercups Cupcakes specializes in cakes, cake pops, macarons and, you guessed it, cupcakes. Order online for your special event or purchase a gift card to send to a friend or even co-worker.
- Whisk Dessert Bar is a gourmet experience featuring delicacies such as Doma Chocolat and Tigre Amandes as well as more traditional chocolate chip cookies. The award-winning chef and owner of Whisk also does custom cake orders, which you can contact them about or look at their online gallery. Visit the Whisk website or check them out in person at 724 Azalea Drive, Shreveport, LA, 71106.
- La Madeleine is a chain restaurant and bakery, but they still have a delicious selection of French patisserie for your enjoyment. Order breakfast anytime of the day or choose a sugary danish to satisfy your sweet tooth.

However, our fully furnished condos make it easy to whip up a batch of homemade cookies or bake a loaf of bread if you desire. Our equipped kitchen area has the cookie sheet, mixer with beaters, stove and other essentials needed to spend an afternoon creatively.
