A doceria on Rua das Pedrinhas working to order and with ready-made cakes, Tuesday to Sunday. Message them on WhatsApp and order your cake.
Rua das Pedrinhas runs along the upper side of Pipa, away from the traffic of the main avenue, and at number 126 you find Las Chicas Doceria. This is not a walk-past window: it is a house that works to order, and the cake that leaves it usually has a date written on it. The house puts it in its own words: cakes and sweets that hug the soul.
Before you walk up, message them on WhatsApp and ask what is ready today: the house works both ways, and it helps to know in advance which one suits you.

The house publishes two ways to buy, and the difference between them changes the whole plan. The first is the order: you give notice, settle which cake and for when, and the house builds it for that date. The second is ready-made, which is whatever has been finished and is available that day. The house's own Instagram names both together, in that order, and the channel for both is the same: WhatsApp.
That double route is what decides how you use the doceria. If what you have is a date — a birthday, a dinner, a farewell — the path is the order, and you need to write days in advance. If what you want is to carry something off today, the path is to ask what is ready: it takes one message, and it saves you the climb up Rua das Pedrinhas for nothing.
The listing classes the visit as quick and records dessert as the meal option. Both point the same way: this is a place to collect from, not to settle into. Payment is by credit card, debit card and contactless.
There is no website of its own: the link published as the site goes to the house's Instagram, and that is where it shows what is coming out. Contact runs on WhatsApp, at the same number that signs the profile, and the full name it trades under is Las Chicas Doceria em Pipa.
To make the first message count, send everything at once: the day and time you will collect, how many people it is for, and whether you have a decoration in mind or would rather leave it to the house. That way the reply comes back settled, instead of five rounds of back and forth. If you are travelling as a group and the cake is a surprise, the collection time is the detail worth fixing first, because everything else is built backwards from it.
The house's photos show four kinds of work, and each one answers a different request. The pieces are photographed already set out on the celebration table, with the balloons and the decoration behind them: that is the moment they were built for.
There are pale yellow buttercream cakes with a piped border — a scalloped garland along the top and another along the base — and sugar pearls applied one by one around the side. On top sit two large pink lilies laid on the frosting: one in the centre and one spilling over the edge, and nothing else. They are served on a white plate or cake stand. The same build turns up in two separate photos against two different backdrops, so it is not a one-off: it is a model the house repeats. It works equally for an adult birthday and for a small party table.
There are also cakes with the surface covered in whole strawberries, green tops left on, under a dark glaze that runs down the side. One of them is finished with question-mark candles and a full backdrop of blue and pink balloons: the build is planned together with the party, not only with the flavour. That is the piece most clearly ordered for a fixed date.
On the single-portion side, the photos show brigadeiros rolled in chocolate sprinkles and beijinhos rolled in sugar, served together and packed tight in a glass bowl, with the tongs resting inside so each guest helps themselves. It is the format that goes alongside the cake when the order is for a gathering rather than for one slice.
The house also builds pieces that are assembled whole: a cake covered end to end in lilac buttercream rosettes, with edible butterflies applied over the top and down the sides, a number on top and sparkler candles between them; and another with a white chocolate drip over a dark base, crowned with truffles rolled in crushed biscuit and finished with gold candles. That is the kind of piece that needs more notice, because the assembly takes time and cannot be improvised on the day.
The detail worth writing down above all others is Monday: that is the day the doceria is closed. The rest of the week is even, Tuesday to Sunday, ten in the morning to eight at night, with no short day and no midday break.
Because the day starts at ten, it is not an early-breakfast option, and because it closes at eight, it is not an after-dinner stop either. The window that works best is the afternoon: the day's work has been finished and there is plenty of time before closing.
Sunday is not a shortened day either: it opens the same ten hours as a Tuesday, 10:00 to 20:00. For a weekend celebration that settles the plan, because a Sunday collection fits the same window as any other day and does not have to be pulled forward to Saturday.
For an order, the calendar matters more than the clock. A cake for Saturday is not requested on Friday: you write days ahead, and further ahead still if the piece carries worked decoration. And if the date falls on a Monday, collection has to be settled on the Sunday, because that is the day the house does not open.
It is at Rua das Pedrinhas 126, on the upper side of Pipa, facing towards Praia do Amor. This is an area of quiet residential streets, several blocks from the noise of the avenue, so getting there means stepping a little outside the usual central Pipa circuit.
From the centre you can walk, and you can also come by car or scooter without difficulty. If you are arriving from Natal or the airport, the transfers to Pipa drop you in the centre and the last stretch is yours. Given the distance, and because this is a collect-and-go house, it pays to have the order confirmed before you set out.
The address goes into any map app in full: R. das Pedrinhas 126, Pipa, Tibau do Sul, CEP 59178-000. It is a numbered street, so there is no hunting for landmarks and no asking at the corner.
Anyone with a date. A birthday at the rental, a farewell dinner, a small celebration: ordering is exactly what this is for, and it is settled on WhatsApp.
Anyone who wants something today. The ready-made side exists for that; one message tells you what is finished.
A table of guests. Between the cake and the small sweets served together, one order covers the whole table.
Anyone celebrating on a Sunday. Sunday keeps the same hours as a weekday, so the collection is settled on the day itself.
No. It closes on Mondays. It opens Tuesday to Sunday, 10:00 to 20:00.
Yes: Sunday 10:00 to 20:00, the same hours as Tuesday to Saturday.
For a cake tied to a date, yes: it is ordered on WhatsApp days ahead. For what is already finished, no.
The house works ready-made alongside orders. What is available changes day to day, and you ask on WhatsApp.
On WhatsApp, at +55 84 99418-3493. That is the number the house publishes on its own Instagram.
They do; it is the centre of the to-order work: cakes built for a date, with decoration and candles.
Yes: credit, debit and contactless.
To collect, yes. The listing records the visit as quick, and it is worth having the order confirmed before going.
Once you have the date, message them on WhatsApp and order the cake: the more notice you give, the further the decoration can go.
