About River Bend Bakery

We're an owner operated family business located in Kenner, Louisiana (approx 20 minutes outside of New Orleans).    After Katrina in 2005, we decided to build our dream here. With much support from our family and friends we were finally open for business in January 2007.

We enjoy the creative process of producing a better version of food favorites.  Many wonderful whole ingredients are incorporated into our foods like real butter and fresh eggs.   We take pride in our products and are happy to be generous with the "good stuff" like chocolate morsels, dried fruit, pure extracts, and freshly toasted nuts. All of our sweet creations are made in small batches, just like at home. What makes us different?  You'll taste the difference because we're truly a small batch bakery.  Our pralines, candies, biscotti...everything is made by us from scratch.  We don't use premade mixes or doughs. We never "recook" our pralines like some of the large praline companies.  We even crack our own eggs and hand cut our biscotti.    The only thing we don't make is our locally roasted coffee which we believe makes the best cup of coffee in town.
