Doc's Cake Shop

Brooklyn, NY

Public sourceBlack-owned · Public source

Doc's Cake Shop is a small bakery on Bainbridge Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, easy to find because there is usually a line outside it.

The counter runs to Southern layer cakes by the slice, red velvet, chocolate fudge, carrot and pound cake, plus cobbler, cupcakes and the banana pudding that most of that line is there for.

The baker credits his grandmother, Joyce Darwood, for the recipes. Catering orders are taken through the site.
