"Mae’s Bakeshop is former Emeril’s pastry chef Jeremy Fogg’s bakery dream come to life, newly opened on Baronne Street in Uptown. Fogg’s style is heavily influenced by his Southern upbringing with a menu rooted in recipes from family gatherings and holidays — think chess pie and sour cream pound cake. In addition to cake by the slice sold in-store, customers can order custom cakes (including wedding cakes) in a variety of flavors (like carrot, almond, coconut, spice, and olive oil), fillings (like lemon curd, homemade jam, coffee ganache, and fresh fruit), and icings (buttercream, cream cheese, and chocolate) with three-day minimum notice. It’s one of the best new bakery additions in town." - Clair Lorell
