Dessert shop Peach Cobbler Factory gets sweet on Dallas' Deep Ellum
A new dessert shop that's crazy about cobblers is coming to Dallas' Deep Ellum: Called The Peach Cobbler Factory, it'll specialize in homey desserts, particularly cobbler and banana pudding.
The shop is part of a chain based in North Carolina and will open in a new location at 3035 Canton St. with a goal to open this summer.
The Peach Cobbler Factory started out as a food truck in Nashville in 2013, before growing to a small chain that began franchising in 2022. There are currently DFW locations in Arlington and Richardson; Deep Ellum will be the third. Other Texas locations are in Katy and San Antonio.
Cobbler is the centerpiece of the menu, served warm with ice cream, in 12 flavors including peach, strawberry peach, blackberry peach, and cinnamon praline peach. Non-peach flavors include cherry, caramel-apple, honey-apple, apple-walnut-raisin, and sweet potato-pecan.
They also offer 12 varieties of banana pudding with additions like Nutella, Oreo cookies, and Butterfingers. Red velvet banana pudding features red velvet cake with cream cheese icing layered into the banana pudding. Similarly, cheesecake banana pudding layers in New York-style cheesecake with graham-cracker crust. Prices average about $9.
Dessert flights let you mix-and-match four flavors. You can choose either from the cobbler category, banana pudding, or both.
There are oversized snickerdoodle cookies, as big as pizza, topped with cobbler; and oversized brownies in flavors such as salted caramel and peanut butter-and-jelly. Other decadent desserts include cinnamon rolls, cobbler-stuffed cinnamon rolls, churros, and milkshakes.
Opening in Deep Ellum are Malcolm and Seneca Durham, a married couple who left the corporate world to jump into entrepreneurship. They also own Dallas-Fort Worth Esthetics, a facial salon in Richardson.
They're currently working on the interior, where they'll have dining-in with seating for more than 100 with floor-to-ceiling windows, plus an outdoor patio.
"We fell In love with the concept after visiting my family in South Carolina," Malcolm says. "We knew it would go perfect with Texas BBQ and the size portions. We wanted to be a part of something bigger than us. Also my husband Seneca is from South Dallas so we wanted to put a business as close as possible to his community."
