Extraordinary Banana Pudding

Toran Grays opened Extraordinary Banana Pudding in La Mesa in early 2020, after sitting on his great-grandmother’s homemade banana pudding recipe for decades. Building on that legacy, Toran uses the freshest ingredients and old-fashioned techniques to create a variety of other pudding-related desserts at his shop. Specialty items include the pudding-filled cupcakes and cakes and “pudding tacos,” which come in flavors like French vanilla, cheesecake, coconut, lemon, red velvet and, of course, banana. Toran also sells pre-packaged puddings for take away, and offers a rotating flavor menu that changes each day.
