In 2006, Lisa and her business partner opened Lilah’s Bakery (named after her daughter, Lila). Lisa wanted to find a way to celebrate the Louisiana culture through food, and helped develop the king cake recipe they still use today.

In their first year selling king cakes, 2008, Lilah’s Bakery sold approximately 70 cakes. Lisa and her team developed a menu using a simple philosophy- offer the freshest king cakes using flavors that are as uplifting as the traditions of Mardi Gras. Lisa’s approach proved to be a winning formula- during the 2022 Carnival season, Lilah’s Bakery sold an estimated 22,800 King Cakes.

To accommodate this dramatic growth the Lilah’s Bakery family includes approximately 25 people every Mardi Gras, many of whom return season after season. Lisa’s success with King Cakes has led Lilah’s Bakery to introduce popular, holiday-themed King Cakes for Easter, Halloween, Thanksgiving, & Christmas, while continuing to use the same recipes and techniques that made them the local favorite.
