I have reached a point in life where I'm downright offended when I spend good money on mediocre…read moresweets. If I'm handing over my hard-earned dollars, I expect happiness. I expect joy. I expect a little dance from my tastebuds. And thankfully, that's exactly what I found at Art House Bakery. The first thing that struck me wasn't the cake--it was the woman behind the counter. I'm not sure if she was the owner or not, but she was an absolute delight. The kind of person who makes you feel genuinely welcome the second you walk through the door. Not customer-service nice. Truly happy-you're-here nice. While perusing the sweet treats, I noticed pa filled with assorted cake slices. She explained that they were made up of cakes that might not have been perfectly level, didn't quite meet their decorating standards, or were a day old. Friends... These containers were $5. FIVE. DOLLARS. Naturally, I bought two because I possess both common sense and a sweet tooth. One container had two vanilla slices and a chocolate slice. The other had vanilla and red velvet. I made it all the way to my car before my self-control failed me and I took a bite. YUM. The cake was moist, flavorful, and had that unmistakable made-from-scratch quality that separates good bakeries from grocery store cake pretending to be special. What impressed me even more was what happened afterward. I shared some with one of my daughters the next day, and by then the cake was at least three days old. It was still delicious. And that speaks volumes. Any bakery can impress you with a cake that came out of the oven six hours ago. A truly talented bakery produces cakes that maintain their texture, flavor, and integrity days later. Eventually the whole family sampled pieces, and every single person agreed: this place is fantastic. Between the warm welcome, the incredible value, and cake that made me question whether I should have purchased a third container, Art House Bakery absolutely won me over. I'm thrilled to know there's a spot in New Braunfels ready to handle my sweet tooth whenever the need arises. And if Marie Antoinette would have said, "Let them eat cake," and meant Art House Bakery, it might have ben forgivable.

There's something divine going on at this place! They have mastered cake! I never buy cake from…read moretaco places. But this cinnamon vanilla cake in the display looked different! So I got a piece to go. It was everything a cake should be - moist and flavorful and soft buttery goodness in every bite! I didn't taste any chemicals like I do in store-bought or box cakes. This tasted like granny's kitchen from above. It makes you want to sing! I had to wait for the taco place to be open again to call them to place an order. I was working so I talked my mom into going and offered to buy her taco if she went and picked up one for me too. She didn't need to know I just wanted cake. I called and paid over the phone. They ran out of the cinnamon vanilla so I had to settle for the red velvet. I don't really like red velvet but thought if it is the same person that made the cinnamon vanilla, then I'm sure my taste buds would approve. My mouth was salivating and ready for it. Well ... I have nothing to report because they forgot to put my slice of cake in the bag!!! I know dietary warfare when I see it! I couldn't leave work so the lady gave me a refund. My obvious question was, when will you have more? She didn't know. Huh?? She felt bad so she graciously gave me the name of the bakery that provides them with cake. A bakery? And it's local??? Well that was my next call and I got the kindest lady named Carolyn over the phone. She kindly listened to my sob story and I felt like I made a friend. I ended up pre-ordering a vegan cake for my mom's birthday. My mom's not able to eat most desserts so I was grateful that they had a dark chocolate cake to offer. I absolutely loved meeting Carolyn in person. She was as fun and sweet as the homemade icing they make. It was incredible! My mom loved it. You would never know it was vegan. In the mean time, I still was waiting for the cinnamon vanilla that was unforgettable. So the following week I ordered a whole cake for Thanksgiving. So glad I had a reason to order a whole cinnamon vanilla cake and that I had people to share it with. I might have eaten the whole thing. Guys, it's THAT good!! And it was a hit!! I should have had their business cards because everyone wanted to know where this bakery was. Good thing I didn't fib and say that I baked it. Hahaha! JK! But it was just like I remembered it. Like heaven and rainbows in your mouth. I decided that this place will one day be my goto for a wedding cake! They have such a cute little shop that also offers delicious cookies and cupcakes and yummy truffles ... What a hidden treasure! Unfortunate things happen in life for a reason. If the lady hadn't forgotten my cake, I may have never discovered this special place. They are my people now.

I must give it to Walmart's bakery in this store. It has quite the sampling of cakes, cookies,…read morepies, and breads. It was a good selection. I visited this Walmart on the way to another destination, and we usually stop here because it is conveniently located on our way. I also decided to look for a cake since it was Mother's Day, and I would be celebrating with family. I purchased their carrot cake and some of the small pies for my dad. I have to say, the cake was surprisingly good, and my dad loves their little pies. Walmart's bakery is not a gourmand bakery. These are not highly priced fancy cakes and pies. But they are very affordable, they have a good selection and can really save the day when you need something sweet to share with family or to just for you. Plus, if you're like me, you have to love that they have slices of unicorn cake!

Sent 2 pictures of how I wanted cake and supplied all the decorations to go on cake. When picked up cake it was a whole different color. Needless to say I was appalled. Attempted to communicate with the owner of Emily's Cakehouse and she dismissed all of my concerns and proceeded to say she chose that color because she thought it looked better. Cake was yellow gold! The cake was $300 and offered me no resolution or compensation. This cake did not go with any of my baby shower decor. The owners response was "it must be your first time ordering a cake cause I worked hard and you can take it or leave it." Not once did she attempt to communicate with me and ask me if she had any questions.

I hate to leave this review, but I'm so upset. I ordered a cake for my daughter's 1st birthday and…read moreit was lovely. I decided to order again for her 4th birthday and I was quite a price that had increased by 50%. I was shocked by the price, but I understand that inflation has impacted us all. I knew that we were satisfied with the service before, so I was ok playing $180. When we picked the cake up, we noticed that it was collapsing, but thankfully it made it until the birthday party. She also told me (at pickup and not before) that she made the Afro puffs out of styrofoam. Why would you put styrofoam on an almost $200 cake. At that point there was nothing I could do, it was already done. When it came time to serve the cake, my hands were dyed black from having to remove the styrofoam and it peeled off half of the top layer of icing. We started to eat the cake and my husband came to me and whispered that he had a long hair in his slice. I later had two other guests mention that they had hair in their slice. I was absolutely mortified and infuriated. I sent a respectful message with pictures to the owner/decorator and her solution was to offer a free cake for the next time I needed one. Umm...no thank you! This cake was inedible due to the hair. It's like playing Russian Roulette with each slice. Like I said, inflation has affected us all, and we spent quite a bit to have a cake of such poor quality.
