If I could give more than five stars for Doré Bakery, I would! For my birthday, they made a lovely…read morevegan spice cake with a vegan cream cheese frosting, made-to-order out of consideration for my various dietary restrictions (vegan and nut-free, to be specific). It was not only absolutely delicious and beautifully decorated (as is standard for them, if you take a look at their photos), but made within a very restricted time frame. The executive chef, Nik Pugmire, was gracious and accommodating, and is clearly exceptionally talented. Des Moines is very lucky to have a bakery like this call it home, and I hope the very best for it!

This was one of our last stops before leaving Des Moines. We picked up several items:…read more 1) milk bread with ube 2) milk bread with red beans 3) ube rice krispie treats 4) milk bread cinnamon roll 5) scotcheroo 6) matcha Blondies with white chocolate chips Coming from Chicago, it is relatively easy to come across milk bread and/or baked goods with ube and matcha. The first three items did not have a strong flavor profile and therefore didn't leave much of an impression with us. The ube in the rice krispie treats was very subtle and I'm not sure what the black components were. It looked like black sesame but we couldn't taste it. The latter three items were more appealing.

We were still able to get 2 cookies each at 1030 at night. Great midnight snack! My fav is the walnut choco chip. I'm a big small business supporter but I gotta say this is one of the best choco chips I have had, even though it's a chain and I feel a little had about it. Some of their cookies are way to mushy though. We will buy them sometimes but then eat the next day when they have hardened up a little.

The cookies tasted good but be prepared to pay $5/cookie. We also got some icecream and it was…read moregood. The scoops were tiny so three scoops might be equivalent to a big scoop at most places. Service was not the best. No greeting when we walked in and our order was wrong. Didn't notice it right away and when we did we asked if we could get the correct brownie she seemed annoyed. Luckily I had the receipt since I felt she was doubting me. She had to call the manager and the manager approved it. I tried making a loyalty account but there was an error message. The cashier didn't know how to help so maybe try creating an account online. Ambiance is okay. It's tiny and there's no room to eat there.

Wowwww! First time visiting and first experience with purchasing a Tres Leches cake here…read more Absolutely amazing. I've had tres leches cakes from Mexican restaurants and this one was very comparable to our favorite restaurants. I couldn't believe how fast I was able to get a cake. I made a call at 2pm and was able to pick up by 5:30pm before they closed at 6pm. Excellent customer service and excellent tres leches cake. Spent $40 for a cake that serves 8-10 people. I didn't ask for a designed cake. Just plain white. I will definitely order here again and highly recommend.

Great spot for some "designer" cinnamon rolls. You can create your own (tons of frosting options…read moreand toppings for days) or try one of their specialties that are displayed when you walk in. The lemon frosting and blueberries did me in! The only thing I'll note is they don't open until 10 which is late if you want these bad boys for breakfast but they close later than most "bakeries". Still worth a try!

It used to be a place one would be so excited to go to because you just knew you were going to get an exception experience and meal that you will be dreaming about for weeks.
