While out in New Braunfels for the annual Christmas tree lighting, I decided to give this little…read morejewel a try. This location was formerly a breakfast spot I used to frequent before it closed, so I was familiar with the layout of the place. Upon walking in you see a setup similar to a sandwich shop, but with cake. You select your cake type (vanilla, chocolate, red velvet, etc.) then you choose your icing. Many different types of yummy icing. I was a little late and missed out on the vanilla cake. So, I opted for cheesecake, chocolate cake with banana pudding flavored icing. I opted to pass on the additional toppings. I paid my $8 and was out the door. Not a bad price for what I got. Service was also great as well. I got home and jumped right into it. I honestly was expecting a dry cake since it was sitting out for a while, but it was quite the contrary. The cake was plenty moist and the banana pudding icing was yummy. Next time I am downtown I will return. I definitely recommend you trying this place if you are nearby. Enjoy!

I went in today after seeing a blurb about it on fb. Cute shop!…read more Unfortunately, I didn't get anything. The young woman who was working didn't know what fat (butter, shortening, etc) they use in their icing, and she did not have an ingredient list. I like to be able to make an informed decision about what I'm eating. Cake Bar, why don't you want people making an informed decision about the food that they eat?

It has taken me 2 weeks to compose & write this review From my interaction with Rhonda, she was…read morebubbly & pleasant to get my business. I paid 50.00 tasting fee for flavors not on her popular list, OK whatever. I sent her a picture of her advertised cake & clarified after contract, the inches didnt look like they matched her picture by cake Scale size from picture so I sent a picture make sure we talking same scale & comparison but cake was way way Smaller upon delivery, I mention this and she tries tell me size is correct. We are setting up reception hall so What can I do but roll with it. Wedding cake quoted was $450, I get contract and it doesnt include flowers, then I learn it wont be real flowers or editable flowers (she say it would be too heavy) ok. I had pay paid an additional $140 for silk flowers. But, The flowers were not in color scheme of wedding. I told Rhonda the color in picture would work fine & I also emailed over some of the colors. Ok agian, let me get over that. I ordered a groomsmen cake as his military retirement cake, an additional $200. it looked nice but after Rhonda came and set up cake a piece had fallen off, our ceremony was only 30 minute; it was the flag part of military cake ceremony was over part of the cake. Ok, another thing but I'm trying roll with it. I sent Rhonda quick text like hey What to do & This is where it starts go downhill: Her Response: "Have a server put it back on or Throw it away" It's a flag on a designed military cake, They tried secure it with few tooth picks but fondant thick so didn't work. I said Rhonda, It will be bad for photo Ops, she said, Photography already took pics when I was setting up, Ummm we weren't in those pictures, we werent formal then, it was setup, rehearsal and walk thrus so missed photo op with us in a finished cake. Ok, let me focus bavk on ceremony. Yeah, its cake cutting time of the actual wedding cake, Unfortunately it was difficult to cut the cake, we moved over thinking we must be on a riser (that connects the cake) No, moved over and the Other part was also hard to cut, we finally got a slice and when pulled cake out, it just fell apart. I sent Rhonda pictures of the crumbled $650 cake + the video when the audience went "Awww" at the 2nd slice cake cutting attempt, I then sent her video clip when 1 of the audience guests said "What type of cake is that." The cake was falling apart. Rhonda said, it must be knife. I sent her closeup pic & said its a cake knife with the cake server. She then said, why u didn't have the server cut the cake. I looked at the phone... Aren't the Bridal couple the one who does the 1st cut and that is where problem lies. Rhonda then said, I can't be at your entire event to watch your cake & your contract says, I'm not responsible after I leave. I'm beyond floored & disappointed because, if im sending you real time proof of our experience on a product I paid 50+450+140+200=$840.00 Next words would be What you said Couture Wedding Cakes New Braunfels, TX where I paid money upfront for, didn't say, my final product would fall apart, be hard to cut, then crumble and collapse!! It was alot of cake left, I threw out big chunks of 3 of the tiers. I was embarrassed, disappointed & hurt. The hurt part came in after reaching out to Rhonda & she did say I apologize but then followed that when basically it's my cake knife fault or User error. I said, very kindly, Rhonda I would like some form of compensation recovering some money back. NEVER heard from Cakes Couture I want do good business with people, who Stand by a product. I didn't ask for a full refund, She basically disappeared after. I communicated the issues. Again, this has really upset me becuz, She started out Great & then we bought into the I come to you, I will offer an anniversary cake free, which we are not going back for Do formal business where it will matter most with a company Who will work to make it right & That wasn't my experience with Cakes Couture, for this I do not recommend (your big day is too important) Severely disappointed

Very disappointed. Cakes Couture was recommended to me by a party planner. After meeting at a…read morelocation for a tasting and talking about cake options with Rhonda, I ordered a tiered two layer cake with German chocolate as the top layer and Italian cream as the base layer. I requested a cream cheese icing on the Italian cream layer, specifically mentioning that I did not want a buttercream icing. I also asked that the German chocolate cake layer be infused with Kaluha by injecting some directly into the cake. Disappointingly, the WHOLE cake was iced in BUTTERCREAM. The Italian cream layer did not have any visual coconut or pecan pieces in the cake and the icing was not cream cheese. The German chocolate layer was not infused with enough Kaluha to taste in the cake and did not have a gooey coconut, toasted pecan icing. Neither cake layer represented the typical type I had requested. The cake was very small and barely fed the number of guests, 35, each getting a very small slice of only one flavor. The cake was paid for in advance. I initiated all contact throughout the process. A week before the event, I texted Rhonda to make sure she was still able to make the cake I had requested. She responded no problem. I feel Rhonda did not remember the cake I had ordered or did not care to provide it the way I requested. I am not able to replicate the special day I planned the cake for. I feel no care or consideration was given to provide the cake as I ordered. A friend also ordered and prepaid for a wedding cake and a grooms cake from Rhonda, 4 months before her event. The cakes were to be decorated with various brands. My friend sent Rhonda a picture representation of the cakes decorated as she wanted along with pictures of each brand and how she wanted them iced onto the cakes. The wedding cake she received on her wedding day had the images of the different brands she had sent individually cut out of printed paper into squares and attached directly to the cake with icing. Squares of paper with an image of a brand "glued" directly to the cake. The groom's cake did not have any brands iced onto the cake. The brands were iced onto the serving plate. So unprofessional. There is no way either situation described can be redeemed, repaired or rectified. I do not recommend Cakes Couture and strongly discourage any one from using her services.

The bakery was founded in 1868; it is recognized as the oldest continuously operating bakery in Texas. Naegelin Bakery is located in downtown New Braunfels, which makes it convenient for sightseeing and picking items up to enjoy while engaging in local activities. The bakery has old-world charm...old school display cases and shelving along with the quintessential bakery smell. You are immediately drawn into the bakery web. Definitely an ole school bakery... Naegelin's is known for traditional German baked goods, including apple strudel, kolaches (both fruit and meat), German rye bread, and its iconic pink-frosted Lebkuchen cookies. According to bakery staff, many recipes are still based on formulas developed generations ago. I purchased apple strudel, oatmeal raisan cookies and a piece of cheesecake. All were good, however, the strudel was the standout. The bakery also offers a wide range of breads, cakes, doughnuts, and seasonal items, making it easy to find something regardless of taste or occasion.
