This unique, woman-owned business opened its second location in the heart of The Woodlands on Waterway Avenue in early February.
“We are so excited to officially open The Woodlands location of Dessert Gallery,” said Brook. “We have been creating sweet memories with the Houston community for nearly 30 years, and expanding into The Woodlands was the natural next step.”
The opening of the Dessert Gallery in The Woodlands marks a significant milestone in the local culinary scene.
