They say there is always room for dessert but at Dessert Goals, all the room is going towards dessert. And honestly – who could ask for more? We are excited to announce that for the third time, Dessert Goals will be returning to Los Angeles! It’s back and bigger than ever, as the event will consist of not one, but TWO back-to-back dessert-filled weekends!

There will be over 20 vendors at Dessert Goals, including Afters Ice Cream, Pop’t By Lily, The Dirty Cookie, Amborella Organics, Stuffed Cookies, Fancy Flavors, Lee’ Poof, ChilOSO Gummy Bear, Churro Service and Jessie’s Nutty Cups. The founders of Dessert Goals understand that there is a lot you can be doing at the event, so they will be providing 90-minute timeslots each day so that you can be sure to make the most of each vendor. Plus, each vendor is making their own exclusive dessert, so you can be sure that there will be something new in every corner and every bite! 

In addition to keeping your belly full, Dessert Goals will also keep your social media popping with cute photos of these totally Instagrammable food items and the gorgeous event space.

Your sweet tooth is sure to be satisfied at Dessert Goals, and you can even help balance it out with a savory salt bar and refreshing drinks that will be provided. 

“We’re thrilled to bring this exciting celebration of sweets back to Los Angeles for the 3rd year, where over 5,000 guests are expected to attend across both weekends,” said Miraya Berke, founder of Dessert Goals. “Our team always goes to great lengths to identify the best of the best in dessert, from the tried-and-true classics to the innovative up-and-comers, to create a slice of heaven for our fellow dessert-lovers.”
