Haydel's Bakery

Bakery · Jefferson

"A fixture in Jefferson Parish since 1959, Haydel’s is a go-to for everything from wedding cakes to special occasion themed treats and of course doberge. While other bakeries on this list may look to Europe for inspiration, Haydel’s remains firmly rooted in New Orleans and Cajun country with Saints-themed cupcakes and the Cajun Kringle, a praline-filled Couronne topped with a caramel glaze and pecans." - Clair Lorell
