There's been a few times where I've stopped at half price books or uptown cheapskate and thought I want a slice of cake or a cupcake, but I felt a little afraid to step in. I am here to let you know, step on it. I think they should put a cake by the slice or cupcakes outside if they already haven't. It's everything, moist, soft and delicious. Great customer service too!

Our wedding cakes were pieces of art, not just beautiful but deliciously moist!~ Company was very easy to work with, explained the prices clearly, my wedding planner even commented that their rates were more than reasonable.. We had a 300 person wedding and they were able to accommodate within our budget by making sheet cakes in addition to the main cakes. I gave them a picture of my dream cake for my red roses and gold candle wedding and they made it identical! So pleased with the communication, beautiful cake, ease of business and taste! We went with the Mexican chocolate for grooms cake and the Whiskey Caramel filling for our main cake. Couldn't be happier! read more

I came here because the staff posted on Facebook that they sell individual slices of cake daily. Well, your girl could use a piece of cake because it was a rough week, so I was intrigued. The shop is small so don't go inside thinking you are going to sit around and hang out. I arrived shortly before closing so they only had a limited amount of stuff available. I still left with two slices of cake and two cupcakes. You can check them out in the picture. I was afraid they would be dry because of their size, but the cake was really good, and the prices were very fair. I am happy I stopped by here to check it out. It's hard to find a good piece of quality cake these days. read more

We have been ordering from the cake shop for about 3 years now and decided to order a 6 inch German Chocolate cake for my mom's birthday. I told them just a regular German Chocolate cake, nothing special, we normally go all out. I wasn't asked about border colors or color of the lettering on the cake. I assumed it would just be a small round cake with the German Chocolate frosting and "happy birthday, mom" on it. I had a family member pick it up for me before they closed and I'm really disappointed with the way it looks. Black lettering and border seems odd for a German Chocolate cake. I would have been fine with a brown border. It will be eaten no matter what it looks like but a little upset about spending $50 for this. read more

I was very impressed with how beautiful my daughter's custom cake turned out! I provided them with a Pinterest photo and they made the cake look identical to the photo (the Pop-It pieces are real white chocolate). The cake was a hit, my daughter was trying to press the pop it pieces bc it looked so real I almost gave it five stars but gave four because I did think the frosting was way way too sweet. And I'm someone who loves sweets and will hardly ever say that. But the cake itself was good and I'd recommend them for anyone who is prioritizing a job well done on a custom decorative cake. read more

The negative reviews are highly confusing for me - perhaps they have replaced staff, because we are blown away with this company! We first met the husband & wife lair at a bridal extravaganza. They greeted us with a big smile and "congratulations" on our engagement. When we tried their cakes, we couldn't stop talking about how airy and moist the cake. weren't pushy or negative about other cake companies, but did give us advice. They told us to pay attention to how our mouth felt after eating cakes at other booths. There was definitely a oily "film" feeling after tasting the other frostings. We signed a contract at the bridal extravaganza and began exchanging communication with an employee. We just went in for our wedding tasting & design meeting and were very pleased. We got to try three different cake types, three different fillings & three different icings. All of the icings & fillings were on a plate so we got to mix and match different flavors to find our perfect fit. My fiancé and I had the same top two flavors, but there was one in particular he really liked, but I wasn't a fan. The worker suggested doing two layers of the flavor combo we both liked and a small top layer of the one he liked. The price was super affordable as well. I won't name the price here since it will vary for others based on the size and design of the cake. I will say, however, the price we will pay for our 3 tier wedding cake was a shock to both of us - we were expecting to pay significantly more given the quality of the cake and the care they put into their baking! We will 100% be back for baby showers, birthdays, etc. any time we have a need for a cake. We are thoroughly impressed with the quality, the design and the effort this company puts into their cakes read more

Unfortunately we ordered gender reveal cupcakes and during our reveal we discovered they forgot the filling (which reveals the gender). They were very quick to refund our money upon us informing them of the situation (hence the 2 stars) but there's no fixing that & our reveal was ruined. The cupcakes were pretty, but were also more blue (and purple) than blue and pink on top. I wouldn't recommend doing any type of gender reveal order through them. Although I am sure their other cakes are probably fine, I've had better luck with H‑E‑B! read more

Just had my family pick up 24 cupcakes for my daughter's first birthday and they said it was...$72!! Are you kidding me?!! I'm beyond floored at the cost and the look (they're just regular cupcakes). We could've made double the amount of cupcakes ourselves for a fraction of the price. Not only that, they're on the smaller side. What makes them cost so much? I'm at a loss for words. To top it off, they put a golden phallic looking #1 on top of one of the cupcakes. This is such a joke! Will not only not recommend this place, I'll actively implore people to go elsewhere. So disappointed and we haven't even tried it yet. Wow. read more

Extremely unhappy with my daughters birthday cake. Decoration was good but the cake was an absolute a disaster. The cake crumble at the time that was being slice. I will say that the ingredients used are not a good quality. I went to this location only because was closed to my house. The note at the bottom of the invoice states that "If anything is wrong with the cake, you must bring back the ENTIRE CAKE". Also says, "Once the cake has left the shop, we are not responsible. So, are we suppose to slice the cake right there to see if is correct? This company has poor quality but the design looks great and the customer service is not any better. read more

I am not one to usually write reviews, but I feel this is well deserved. I was planning a friend's baby shower long distance and from the beginning Katie was very helpful by sending me a list of things they offered, prices for everything and also helped me figure out amount needed for the number of guests. She even arranged for a tasting and my friend's husband (who is very picky) was super impressed and told me he loved everything and wanted to eat more! They provided transportation the day of the event and everything was exactly as ordered. Dessert table looked beautiful with the cake and mini desserts and guests loved it. We went with a 3-tier naked cake almond flavor with Nutella filling, and had tres leches shots, s'mores shots and cake pops. So impressed with presentation, flavor and cost! I recommend them 100% for any event you are hosting!! read more

I ordered half strawberry/half vanilla with raspberry filling. I was just kind of trying something different. It was just the right amount of sweetness and filling. It was soft and delicious. The fondant was really good. They were fighting over it. Everyone kept asking me where I got the cake. I was like I tried a new place that I took a chance on. Glad I did!!! If you communicate to them what you want, don't leave anything out, and listen to them tell you what they can or cannot do then you should be fine. Sometimes people leave bad reviews because they didn't listen or want to complain. This place is good!!! read more

I had 2 bites of my cake and told my boyfriend I was disappointed and he could finish it. He did not finish it. He said he should have just gotten the HEB tres leches and I completely agree.

My friend adored her macchiato and ferro rocher ball, but i had a different experience -- the basbousa i love here was heavy and less flavorful than before. I don't know what wasn't right, but this was not what i expected. There were only a few nougats, sadly none of my favorites. I wanted a cold Americano, but was told it was only available hot. The menu identified what drinks were only available hot and the Americano was not among them. I asked what was available cold, and he said, "everything else." I'm hoping this place will return to awesome when the renovation is done.

They have a storyline to create a plot for the "dessert" creations. The pastry chefs interweave sweet, salty, sour, spicy, and umami throughout the evening AND is also paired with a drink per dish. They tell you how to eat the dish for maximum enjoyment of the desired taste experience. They do an excellent job of creativity, presentation, and combination of flavors. Such an intimate setting. After it's all done, they do part you with a BIG fortune cookie with a handwritten fortune! This is the time where you are allowed to pull your phones out. And you can also step in the kitchen area and take pics. Menu does change. I'd definitely go again!

I'm vegetarian and pregnant so my menu had to be modified but I was so blown away by the fact that they were able to accommodate for me and took such care in making sure my plates met the caliber and intended feeling/taste of the non vegetarian dishes. Same with the drink pairings, although mine were non alcoholic, it wasn't just a blah substitution, they really put a lot of care into making sure the drink matched the energy and vibe of the alcoholic version. My husband and I loved the story telling that went with each dish that described the chef's intentions and the products used for each bite. This was our first fine dining experience and we couldn't have been more satisfied. We were celebrating my husband's graduation and they even had a little card for him signed by the chefs! So cute! I'd definitely recommend checking this place out for a special occasion, or if you're just curious about what a Michelin Star dessert restaurant is all about.

When we walked in, service was slow and a bit awkward, and the dining area wasn't very clean or put together. Additionally, the place could definitely be lit up more so it was difficult to study and hang out in. Cute vibes with a nice photospot if you're just stopping by for a quick snack, but between the price and lackluster atmosphere, it didn't quite feel worth it.

Their cookies are so creative and I can assure you you've never had a more delicious cookie in your life. By far my favorite cookie is their Classy B; a double chocolate chip cookie with hazelnuts and nutella, topped with a whole Ferrero Rocher! My second favorite is their Cream Dream; signature base cookie with pieces of oreo and white chocolate. They don't have a brick and mortar but you can put an order via their website or over the phone. I believe they also do custom order, which are perfect birthday parties or as a gift.

We were given menus to look at while we waited so by the time we got to the counter, we were ready to order. The baked goods aren't on the menu, so when we walked by the counter filled with croissants, kouign amann, bear claws, apple pie, cheese cakes, it was hard to choose what we wanted!! We ordered: the Alamo Burger: a 8 oz wagyu beef smash burger , served with a fried egg, caramelized onions, cheese on a crispy croissant bun. It was incredible and worth the 15-20 minute wait! Almond croissant - a monster sized, flaky croissant with a generous almond filling. Guy Fieri highlighted this croissant on his DD&D show. It's probably a million calories not worth it! Tequila strawberry tres leches croissant - a small, cream filled croissant with strawberries. This was our least favorite. My husband didn't like the filling, I didn't like the sogginess of the croissant. Coffee - really good brewed coffee with free refills. We plan to go back a few more times while we're in town!!

I chose this location because it was close to my hotel. The first thing that caught my eye was the pastry display. I had heard great things about their conchas, so I purchased a chocolate concha, a chocolate croissant, and a guava-filled pastry. Unfortunately, I wasn't very impressed. All three pastries seemed a bit dry to me and didn't live up to the hype. I also tried their brunch offerings, which were good but nothing particularly memorable. On a positive note, the service was excellent. The staff were friendly, respectful, and welcoming. The ambiance was casual and comfortable, making it a pleasant place to visit overall.

Located in a vibrant section near downtown San Antonio, La Churrería is the perfect spot! The staff is very friendly and the churros are made to order.
