Forever Love

From first dates to wedding cakes, Dessert Gallery has witnessed countless love stories bloom and grow. Forever Love is a celebration of romantic connections, both new and seasoned, that found their way to DG. These stories remind us that sometimes, the sweetest relationships begin with dessert. Read on for heartwarming tales of dates turned soulmates, anniversaries marked with frosting, and love that stood the test of time.

It’s crazy to think our story started before we even met. Years of unknowingly attending the same Independence Day events, probably just feet apart. When we finally connected through a friend of a friend, it instantly felt like oh…THERE you are… One random follow led to endless late night talks about everything from dreams to desserts. Trying new dessert spots became our go to, not just for the sweets, but for discovering places together & turning simple outings into core memories. That’s how Dessert Gallery came in. He’d known about it for years & I hadn’t been…until recently. & when we finally went, it was perfect. The vibe, the desserts (adored the Eid cookies!), the little in between moments, it just felt right. & now in just a couple of months… we’re getting married. Proof that the sweetest things often begin with the smallest spark (kinda like how unexpectedly amazing that tiramisu turned out to be). -Aimon

I was setting up my girlfriend’s birthday dinner and needed an amazing cake to go with it. I asked around and kept hearing about DG. I call up, and we selected Chocolate Euphoria over the phone. A few years later and now we are married and just welcomed our baby last month! Thanks Dessert Gallery! - Drew H

We were going to have a beach wedding and then came quarantine! But we still had our wedding cake and ate it too! We had a small wedding ceremony, complete with beachy motifs. Dessert Gallery’s Italian Cream Cake fit right in! – Brittany A.

I was introduced to Dessert Gallery by my husband. I’ve tried the Mom’s Chocolate Cake, Tres Leches, and Red Velvet Cake, and let me tell you—ALLLLLL were fantastic!! The chocolate cake with the buttercream frosting is… chef’s kiss DELICIOUS!

Turns out, the way to my heart really was through dessert. - Kelley W.

My then-girlfriend grew up in Houston with Dessert Gallery’s Old-Fashioned Diner Cake. By the time I met her, she and her family had moved to Chicago, and the cake was just a memory. For her 21st birthday in 2020, mid-pandemic and far from home, I wanted to give her something special. So I DM’ed Dessert Gallery, shared her story, and asked for the recipe. Instead, Sara, the owner, replied personally and offered to ship the cake, on the house. It meant the world to both of us. Fast forward to 2024, Emily and I are engaged and BIG fans of Dessert Gallery. - Matthew H.

I proposed to my now wife with a Dessert Gallery cupcake and the ring hidden in the frosting. She cried, said yes, and ate the entire cupcake before answering all our friends’ texts. She still says it was “the sweetest proposal ever.” - Mei L.

Our first date was at Dessert Gallery. He ordered the Red Velvet, I ordered the Italian Cream, and we ended up sharing both. We’ve now been married for 12 years, and every anniversary, we come back and order the same two slices. It's our little tradition that reminds us how it all began. - Angela & Marcus H.
