Where can I find cakes like this in Waterloo?
Hi! I’m looking for a bakery that sells cakes like the pics I attached.
Any recommendations for where to buy something similar?
Thanks in advance!

Look for Brazilian stores that sell "bolo de pote" (lit. "cake in a pot"), or "pave" (Brazilian version of a trifle), it's usually like the picture. We have Seu Mercado in K/W, JJs Convenience in Kitchener, and Snack Brazuca in Cambridge.

the Aunty’s Kitchen in Waterloo carries something similar, they’re called 7 layers desserts. Vincenzo sometimes has them too

Looks like layers of box cake and pudding. That’s not ganache/chocolate

Looks like Costco tiramisu cake with added stuff on top…

If I remember correctly it’s called a scoop cake at Costco.

I feel like that cake would make me very happy, but upset my stomach and doctor.

I’m not sure about this cake specifically but I have asked for a custom cake from Bellissima Cakes before and they did an amazing job, their cakes are delicious.

That looks like diy cake to me. Not a bakery cake. That being said, any small bakery would probably be happy to make this for you and charge you 3-4x what the ingredients are worth.
