Sweet Potato Desserts Meet Shrimp Po'boys in Bed Stuy
A Brooklyn bakery pairs Food Network featured pound cake with savory sandwiches and a subtle raisin twist.
🍰 Cake And Po'Boys
Sweet potato pound cake leads the menu at this Bed Stuy bakery, while the counter at 376 Marcus Garvey Blvd keeps the savory side close. The menu moves from red velvet slices and banana pudding cake to a jerk chicken sandwich and a fried shrimp po'boy finished with a dash of raisins.
Established in 1999, the bakery is led by a founder and head chef with over 40 years of experience. The sweet potato pound cake has earned Food Network features, while the short weekly schedule runs Thursday through Saturday from noon to half past six PM and Sunday from noon to 5 PM. Monday through Wednesday are closed.
Catering trays extend the same kitchen beyond the counter, built from the dessert and sandwich lineup already on the menu. A cheesecake slice rounds out the case alongside the pound cake, and weekend visits land inside the Thursday through Saturday run or the shorter Sunday hours, ahead of the counter closing for the week.
