Hand-Crafted Heavenly Sweet Treats The Dessert Ga Hand-Crafted Heavenly Sweet Treats 
The Dessert Gallery Bakery & Cafe 
Houston Texas - 

🎂 OMG! What a fantastic discovery of sweet deliciousness!  If you live in Houston or just passing through, you need to make a visit to the Dessert Gallery. It's worth a trip from anywhere to enjoy some hand-crafted ubiquitous sweets. 

👉 @dessertgallerybakery 

📍 3600 Kirby Dr # D, Houston, TX 77098

📝 https://dessertgallery.com/

🚚 ✈️ SHIPPING NATIONWIDE 

📦 @goldbelly 

The rest of the story: 
Hey, sweet thing! Welcome to Dessert Gallery, where each treat is a work of art, created from the best ingredients possible. Everything is handmade by real people who love what they do. You can just taste it with every bite!

Most of our cakes are available by the slice every day—until they run out, that is! Come in and enjoy homemade cake with a cup of sit-and-talk coffee. Weekend or weekday, this is where calories don’t matter, and chocolate makes everything better. It’s where friendship is a delicate combination of admiration, trust, empathy, two forks, and one dessert.

Whether you’re dining in, taking out, or shipping some sweet treats across the miles, they're there for you. Stop by one of two cafes—3600 Kirby Dr. in Houston’s Upper Kirby District or 25 Waterway Ave. in The Woodlands. 

Trey's Take: 
It's worth a trip from anywhere to enjoy some or all of these fresh treats. We loved each one and couldn't get enough. They're a new officially APPROVED Trey's Chow Down Delicious destination for all food lovers to enjoy.

Over the past few years, I’ve traveled across the United States sampling fried chicken, but in this article, I’m thrilled to focus on the incredible offerings right here in my beloved North Texas.
