The Ambrosia Bakery Story
Owners Felix and Cheryl, natives of New Orleans, opened the doors at The Ambrosia Bakery on December 1, 1993. Looking back, they can truly say that a lot of things happened for a reason. Beginning as a delivery route truck driver and working his way up to branch manager, Felix learned how to successfully lead a team of people in sales and marketing.
Cheryl began decorating cakes in the early 1980’s and spent some time working for others in the bakery business and gift shops. After losing his job of 27 years due to a company merger, Felix felt it was too late to start over in another job. By combining both of their talents and interests, they decided to start their own business to provide beautiful cakes and delicious desserts to the people of Baton Rouge.
In 1991 the bakery got its start in a little 1200 square foot building. After three years in that building, they custom built a 3274 square foot building approximately 1 mile from the original location. A few years later they added 1,000 square feet of production area to total 4274 square feet.

How many servings are in the "regular size" king cake? I am missing home and want to get a cake (or two) shipped but for the life of me I can't find anything on the website about how big a regular king cake is.

Looking for a response to a Yelp review I left 24 hours ago, do not want to take this any further if someone could kindly reach out! Thanks
This year, leave the cooking to your favorite Baton Rouge restaurant including BRQ "Seafood and BBQ", Mestizo Louisiana Mexican Cuisine, City Pork Brasserie & Bar, Eliza Baton Rouge, Elsie's Plate & Pie, The Ambrosia Bakery.
Do not attempt to order a cake from these people, every time we try to order a cake, they claim they can’t take any orders, I tried to have a conversation with the owner, and they claim he is to busy to talk to a customer looking to spend money in the bakery, any suggestions on other reliable bakeries?
