Doce Vida Brazilian Bakery

I ordered a cake for today, lemon doberge. When I called to ask about the pricing I was quoted a price that was cheaper than what I was charged. I inquired about it and was told it’s a different price because it was a specialty cake…so what cake did you quote me before? I also asked what was on it and they said buttercream. I received a cake with whipped topping…that I can’t stand. The cake was also overcooked and hard on the outside under the 4 inch layer of whipped cream. So to the trash it goes and so does my $70. I would communicate with them about how I was unsatisfied and would like to recoup at least some of my money but I high key doubt that would happen due to what people around me have said about the issues they’ve had with their cakes.

Mrs.Neila and her team did an absolutely fabulous job with our wedding cakes! They were so delicious and everyone had nothing but good things to say about the cakes. She saved the day when we didn’t have the right size cake stands and they were able to get us the right ones we needed quickly. We fell in love with her and her cakes when we went to do our cake tasting. I will always recommend her and her business!

Ordered a 3 Tier Geode Wedding cake. The tasting was very personal and the different flavors were amazing. She took her time going over what we wanted and shared in our excitement. The day of the wedding she was punctual and very professional. The attention to detail when she was setting the cake up was amazing. The guest as well as me & my bride were truly impressed with the flavors of the cake. We received so many compliments on the cake and told everyone where we got it from. We are looking forward to our future anniversary cakes.

You must see the beauty within this small business bakery. Brazilian owner, Niela, shared her amazing story while we enjoyed a pour over coffee and a slice of decadent salted caramel cheesecake. Everything is made in house. Lovely!

We love this bakery. The owner is very sweet, and we’ve used her for multiple locations. She made a beautiful grooms cake for me and my daughter’s baptism reception cake. 100% recommendation

Vast variety of delicious Macarons, but the Lavender one was dry. Banana nut cake is juicy and perfect. The shop is small and they lack different baked products such as croissants, etc. will definitely come back to try other stuff.

If you love decidant sweet treats, you must visit Doce Vida Brazilian Bakery! A friend introduced me to this sweet shop and I couldn't be more grateful. I have been back many times since to purchase more macaroons, cookies, toffee, cake pops, brownies, hand made taffy and candy, and so much more! The variety of cakes is endless. My favorite is red velvet, but they also offer German chocolate, carrot cake, banana nut.... There's so many varieties of sweet treats even the pickiest eater will find a scrumptious treat and love every bite. There is something for everyone and I highly recommend stopping by and seeing what they have to offer. You will not be disappointed.

Vegetarian options: I did not see any items at all that contained meat, so this is a definite go to for vegetarians.

Dietary restrictions: I had gallbladder issues, so I had to stay away from greasy foods, so the items offered didn't bother me, but for those on a low calorie or low carb diet they do offer some low sugar items.

Parking: Plenty of parking a short distance from the entrance.

Kid-friendliness: Kids will love all of the sweet treats. They might have a hard time containing themselves because they will be excited about all of the yummy snacks to choose from.

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible, but not too much room to maneuver inside.

I ordered a large Chantilly cake for their Wedding Cake. Bride and Groom are both in Recovery, so when they told me it was made with Triple Sec, I was worried. The lady said, no problem we will make it with simple syrup. They did and it was fantastic Maybe even better than the normal one. I Love Love Love this bakery. Kathy
