Alexandria Pastry Shop

The Alexandria Pastry Shop was an excellent choice for us! They work with the Crowne Plaza Hotel, which is where our reception was, which made it very convenient. We simply showed them a photo of the cake we wanted, and they recreated it! It was beautiful and deliciously devine!

Alexandria Pastry Shop was recommended to us by my now mother-in-law. They offer a million different options and can take even the vaguest descriptions to create a beautiful - and delicious - wedding cake. We waited later than we should have to order our wedding cake, but Alexandria Pastry Shop created a beautiful 5 tier cake for us that simply took my breath away!

Tom at the Alexandria Pastry Shop was great. He guided us through a cake tasting, then provided a huge book of cakes as examples of what they could do. The cake we selected was chocolate cake with mocha buttercream. WOW. Was this cake fantastic or what! And our guests just loved it. I would definitely recommend the Pastry Shop for your wedding-- they have years of experience and do great work!

I love Alexandria Pastry Shop! I have been going there since I was a child, having grown up nearby. We always got the black and white chocolate mousse cake for family birthdays, so I had to have it for my wedding cake! It was a no brainer. We also had the fruit bavarian which was a nice contrast. The cake was beautiful and simple, exactly what we asked for. Tom is also very nice -- our tasting really stood out from other cake tastings. He really made us feel special.

We didn't want to get a traditional wedding cake, so we bought 8 regular cakes from them. Each cake was beautiful and delicious! We cut a bavarian chocolate mousse cake. And got rave reviews for the passion fruit cake. Everyone loved the idea. And it cost much less than doing a traditional wedding cake.

Our cake was absolutely wonderful. It was exactly what we ordered and it was so delicious. We were very pleased with everything from the tasting to the presentation on the day of our wedding. Our guests raved about how good the cake was and we enjoyed left over cake for the days following our wedding. The staff was professional and responsive and they called to confirm the details several times just to make sure everything was in order for the day of the wedding. The cake was delivered on time and the staff was very friendly. We got a beautiful and delicious cake for a great price and after researching a few places in the area we got a great deal for as much cake as we got. Would absolutely recommend this business if you are looking for a good value, great service, and delicious cake.

Alexandria Pastry was one of the vendors listed in my package with my reception venue. The service during my consultation/tasting was excellent. They copied the design from a picture I brought in and upgraded me to sugar flowers for a reasonable fee. The cake was beautiful and it was delicious.

I loved our wedding cake from the Alexandria Pastry Shop. Nestled in a normal-looking mall in Alexandria you will find this gem. We went in for a tasting and one of the owners (Tom) walked us through several varieties of cake flavors that would be available in the summer. We ordered a 4-tier cake with three different flavors, and the one we liked best we saved as the cake topper, although I don't think we will be able to freeze it for any time, it's getting eaten soon! Tom and Daniella, the two primary contact points at the shop are incredibly professional and responsive to special requests. Our cake looked elegant and exactly as I showed them in my ideas for its design. But more importantly, it tasted phenomenal. It was delicate and light and there was just enough of the outer frositng. I love this place and will be back for celebratory cakes in the future!

Amazing, simply amazing. The cake and favors were done by Alexandria Pastry. The cake had many tiers, each tier had three layers of cake with a lemon & fresh raspberry mousse filling. Everyone raved about the cake saying it was the best they had ever had. The cake was decorated by our florist with cascading fresh flowers to match the green, lavender color scheme of the wedding. Absolutely gorgeous, but more importantly absolutely delicious. Cookies were given as favors - decorated & tied up beautifully with a bow and rings all by Alexandria Pastry. There was nothing we needed to do with the favors at all. They also looked and tasted super. Alexandria Pastry was so easy to work with. No hassles at all. They delivered everything right on time so that the florist could put the flowers on. And even in the almost 100 degree heat, the cake was perfect. We can not recommend them highly enough.

My great experience began with a phenomenal tasting! I loved the fresh raspberry butter crème, fruit bavarian, and the black and white chocolate mousse the best. It was hard to choose just one, so we chose all three! The cake was absolutely gorgeous! I chose it from one of their designs, but they made it more personal adding silver beading to the bottom of the layers and brushing over the cake with a silver sparkle dust. It was very faint over the ivory design, but just enough of a touch of sparkle to add to my winter wedding. I can't wait to go back and get a fresh slice of cake for my anniversary!

Tom was so helpful, and amazing to work with. I had a notion in my head that my wedding cake would be butter cream, however, Tom introduced me to some of their specialty cakes, and I fell in love with them! We had a three tier Cassis (black current) Mousse cake for our wedding reception. I don't like fondant, so this cake was perfect. The colors of the design were incredible, and the flavor is delcious!!! Our guests raved about the cake, it was so light and perfect after a heavy meal! SO DELCIOUS!!! Thanks Tom, we can't wait to get more from you in the future!

Went in for 3 tastings...all delicious cake! Went for cassis/bavarian creme and chocolate truffle. EVERYONE loved my cake! SOOOO GOOOOD! Excellent price and excellent quality.

We really enjoyed working with Alexandria Pastry Shop. Their flavor choices were excellent, we had a tiramisu flavored wedding cake and a chocolate raspberry groom's cake. They even accomodated a second tasting after we realized our original groom's cake choice would be too heavy with the wedding menu. We initially dealt with Ana, but when Dani took over at the store she called us to confirm all of our details and was extremely professional. Their prices were reasonable and they offered excellent personalized attention, moreso than the other than the three other bakeries we met with. Our cake was beautiful and was delivered on time-- they worked with our location to handle the delivery logistics with little stress for us.

Love, love, love, loved our wedding cake by Alexandria Pastry Shop. My husband and I went to several bakeries for wedding cake tasting and none of them is even close to Tom's cakes. His cakes are so unique and so tasty. When we went for our tasting, we ended up eating all three slices of the samples Tom gave us. We couldn't stop eating them and we are not even big cake people. And the cake itself! It was exactly what I wanted. I was so happy when I saw the on my wedding day b/c they got the exactly colors I requested. And their service is exceptional. Both Tom and Ana are so friendly and you can just tell that they love making wedding cakes. Everyone at our wedding raved about the cake. Everyone said that it was the best wedding cake they've every had. Now, THAT's a compliment.

Tom at Alexandria Pastry Shop was amazing. When we went for our tasting, he was very patient with us when we not only had a strange flavor request (which he had specially made ahead of time!), but also when we wanted to try every type of cake possible. Also, our cake looked (and tasted) so much better on the day of than we even could have imagined!

Exactly what I wanted for less than I could have gotten anywhere else! Everyone who worked with me from Alexandria Pastry was fantastic. I knew before I even got engaged that they were the obvious choice to make and decorate my wedding cake. I had 85 guests at my wedding, a 3 tier cake and a sheet cake that were 3 different flavors. First of all the cake was gorgeous and exactly as I had discussed and designed with Alexandria Pastry. Second, the responses that I heard from my guests were that they loved the cake so much that they all wanted to try each flavor and most did!!! Which is why I only ended up with the top tier and no other leftovers:) The cake was perfect and I would not have changed a thing.

I love Alexandria Pastry Shop!! They made cakes for an engagement party my parents threw a year ago and everyone loved them-- they even matched the frosting color to the exact font on our invitations!! This past weekend they made my wedding cake and I couldn't be happier. Originally I was concerned because nothing I saw in the store was as big as the cake I wanted (for over 200 guests), but the cake that arrived at my wedding was EXACTLY what I dreamed of!!! It was five layers, with fresh flowers between each layer. They put my husband and my monogram on it and matched the lace on my wedding dress in piping. I just loved it-- it was a work of art I was sorry to cut. The cake itself was delicious. I am a chocolate fanatic, so despite the fact that it is May I ordered chocolate truffle and it was delicious. Surprisingly for me, I liked the Fruit Bavarian even more than I liked the chocolate. When my husband and I cut the cake, we ate the customary bite and were supposed to go dance...I went back and ate a whole slice before I went anywhere. Delicious. They were also very easy to work with-- they met with me for a long time and called again and again to check up on details and make sure I was happy with what they were doing. They also worked well with my wedding planner. My venue would have charged about $7.50 a slice and I thought their cake was dry, the Pastry Shop made it for $5.25 and it was just perfect. USE ALEXANDRIA PASTRY SHOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Our cake was delicious- we had a Pear Praline, Triple Chocolate and Black and White Mouse cake. They were all amazing-- I do not think there was any cake left- my mother had to steal someone elses cake to get the flavor she wanted. We gave them a photo of the design and they matched it perfectly.

As soon as I tasted the Bavarian fruit cake, I knew we had to have it. It was so light and yummy. Unfortunately, I never got more than a tiny bite of it at the reception:( But everyone else said it was great. Our design combined the look of two other designs they had previously done and it turned out exactly as I imagined it should. It was beautiful! Best of all, any time we want to eat some of our wedding cake, we can just order a small Bavarian fruit cake and savor every bite.

Absolutely fantastic!! The cake was out of this world! I had several guests comment on the cake, saying it was the best cake they had ever had! We had a 3-tiered bavarian cream cake layered with fruit and tiramisu lady fingers! I highly recommend them to anyone and everyone!
