Edelweiss Bakery

Edelweiss Bakery has amazing cake quality. They are on the smaller side but very professional. I liked that they had a complimentary cake tasting as opposed to other bakeries that charge for cake tasting. They have a good variety of flavors and designs to pick from or you make take your own. Their pricing is affordable. They do close somewhat early and do not email but that didn't pose any big issue. They deliver and are very punctual.

I received a free cake from this bakery through my reception vendor, The San Diego Marriott Hotel. My wedding cake was simple and beautiful! They have very nice and patient employees who really care about their clients. My guests enjoyed the cake and all three flavors (red velvet, marble, and chocolate)! Thank you Edelweiss Bakery, for making such a delicious and wonderful cake for my wedding! :)

The Marble Cake with Chocolate Mousse is delicious!

Edelweiss Bakery was very helpful and accommodating for our wedding! We first set up a cake tasting time with them during which they were very gracious and let us try numerous combinations and samples. We then discussed what our cake wanted to look like and the color of the icings and which flowers and what letter we wanted on the cake and they were once again accommodating and helpful with suggestions and brainstorming. Cake was delivered on time with no problems; our cake was also very delicious [Bavarian cream and raspberry with white pound cake]! Thank you Edelweiss!

Our wedding cake was beautiful and delicious and arrived on time. They were very helpful at the tasting and did not rush us at all in making our decisions. They even were nice enough to personalize our cake by putting little dog paws on it for our love for dogs. I recommend this vendor because you get a very good deal for the quality of the cake and customer service this bakery provides.

My hotel reception package included a cake from Edelweiss, so I am not able to compare my cake experience with other bakeries. But I'm glad we were directed to Edelweiss because they do have a helpful staff and great tasting cakes. It was easy to schedule an appointment for a cake-tasting. My fiance and I were brought a tray of around 8 different flavors. All were so good, I had a hard time deciding which flavors to pick for our wedding cake. My FI/husband is a big fan of carrot cake, but they did not provide a sample on the tray. We asked for one, and they gladly brought one out.
Since our cake was part of the reception package, they gave us a book of cake designs to choose. Unfortuntately, none of them fit what I had envisioned for our cake. I was able to show the baker a picture of what I wanted, and she agreed she could make it for us, without an extra charge :)
Our wedding cake was delicious! Soft, moist, and not too sweet. I even had a slice of our top layer the day after our wedding because I know I don't want to wait a whole year to have more of it!

The cake was absolutely beautiful and tasted great. I was upset that we had asked for purple and black icing and when the cake showed up it was only black icing. No call or anything giving us a heads up and I even left a swatch of fabric to match the color...

Of all the many details of my wedding, I fought the hardest for the cake. Karl Strauss, our venue, required us to use one of two bakeries in the area, and we chose Edelweiss Bakery because they said they used "real buttercream." Well, that was buttercream cut with shortening, and I could taste the difference. I am really, really picky about cake. SO I was worried, and I didn't know if they could handle my unusual design request (piping a traditional Indian mehndi design on the cake). But my wedding coordinator got in touch with the baker over there, and they agreed to use real buttercream (no shortening), and do the design I requested. I can't tell you the weeks I spent worrying over this cake, not sure how or if it would turn out since it was sight unseen and almost untasted (we did the cake tasting, but not with this new buttercream recipe). And it was fabulous. That cake was extraordinary. It looked beautiful, it tasted better than any wedding cake I've ever had in my life, and while communicating exactly what I wanted wasn't the easiest process in the world, their flexibility and customer service turned out to be outstanding. Granted, I was a very pesky bride and made sure we got in contact with the baker, and not just the charming people working the front of the store.

Long story short - the cake was the thing I feared would go wrong, and it was spectacular. Edelweiss has won 96 new fans (everyone at my wedding loved it, including...

I am the type of bride who wanted to pay $50 for a cake and be done with it, but of course that wasn't the case. The cake was not huge on my list, so I went with a plain, white, 3-tiered cake and decorated it with flowers. I think it was too expensive for a cake, but it was a whole lot cheaper than any other bakery in town and it tasted great. They charge by the cake and not the slice, which was really nice because we would have spent triple what we did if it were that way. Everyone at the bakery was very professional. I didn't see them on the wedding day, but I know that cake was delivered on time and it looked amazing when I finally got around to doing the cake cutting. They only problem I had was the delivery charge and they didn't want to deliver on a Sunday, but that's when I was getting married. We eventually worked something out, though.

I didn't do that much direct contact with the bakery - we had assist from our coordinator on that front. It is challenging to coordinate this aspect long distance. You have to go on a whim and "guess" what flavors might be good. I only had 3 bites of the cake in total :( so didn't get to enjoy it. However, ALL of the guests commented on how great it tasted! They seemed especially impressed with the chocolate layer. We stuck with the basic cake flavors (cheaper than picking the fancier flavors) but it worked out fine. Next time in town, I will have to go back and try the different flavors.

I went in for a cake testing, and Mariam (the Mira Mesa Bakery) was EXTREMELY helpful! She had everything prepared, gave me suggestions, knew EVERYTHING about their cakes. Answered every single question and paid attention to every single little detail I needed on my cake. She reviewed her notes with me and made sure everything was correct. I called in a few times to add more details and they happily accepted the changes. They delivered the cake on time and it was BEAUTIFUL!

We're very happy that we decided to go with Edelweiss Bakery!

Customer Service: Dawson was awesome! He was very professional and provided top notch customer service anytime we called the bakery. Our first encounter was with the cake tasting--and every meeting since that was always pleasant.

The Cake: Delicious, delicious, delicious and beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. Need I say more? We were extremely pleased by the fact that the cost for our wedding cake was the most reasonable; other bakeries charge exorbitant amounts for their cakes. The delivery was prompt and they made it even more beautiful with the flowers from the florist (specifically for the cake).

If you're looking for a delicious cake and are looking to get the most bang for your buck without compromising quality and great customer service, run to Edelweiss Bakery for your cake tasting!

Our wedding cake was made by Edelweiss Bakery and we were very satisfied with them. The tasting was a lot of fun and the people working at the bakery were very friendly and allowed us to take our time when trying out the different selections. Before we went to the tasting I told them we won't be doing chocolate so there was no need to bring out chocolate samples. The day of the tasting the remembered that request, so that was a good sign that they do listen to customer requests and tailor the tasting to what will suit us best. We were offered beverages of coffee, tea, or water during the tasting too which I thought was very nice.

When picking the cake they completely let me customize the cake to exactly how I wanted it to look. I loved the look of the base of cake A and the climbing cherry blossom on cake B. Instead of having to choose between one or the other, they combined the two looks into a new cake design. I was able to get the exact shades of purple on the cherry blossoms to match the theme of the wedding day, too.

And with the flavors of the cake: all were divine! Again, I couldn't decide on just one and they suggested doing a different layer for each flavor. Absolutely brilliant! So we had the bottom layer be vanilla sponge cake with Bavarian cream, the middle layer was vanilla sponge cake with lemon tart, and the top layer was carrot cake (my favorite). All the guests at the wedding raved how delicious the cake was. The carrot cake was heavenly!

My only critique was when the cake was delivered, there was a spot on the middle layer where the frosting got accidentally smudged. My maid of honor noticed it and asked the gentleman who was setting up the cake what happened. He apparently said he didn't know. So that was a bit odd, but at the end of the day it didn't ruin the cake.

we had some pretty bad tastings so when we came there we were very skeptical. We walked in and were excited immediately. the tasting was great and they were very helpful. Once I got all the cake off my face on my wedding day the cake was gone!!! everyone loved it! The only negative thing I can say was we order buttercream and got whip cream.
But who cares! Everyone loved it!!

We received amazing customer service when we went there for our tasting and the cake turned out just perfect. I'd highly recommend their marble pound cake to everyone!

I loved working with Lynn! She was helpful all the way through the whole order! My cake looked beautiful and tasted great. Thanks Lynn!

We chose Edelweiss because of good reviews and their price. They were not originally our first choice- as their cakes were okay, compared to a couple other cakes. But- as it came down to it- their prices were very reasonable- under my budget and the cake tasted pretty good. The guy helping us choose the cake- was very flexible, and knowledgeable- and allowed us to taste test couple times as well. In fact, I think the first time, he even wrapped it up, for my husband to taste, since he couldn't make it.
They ended up being very thorough- they called to confirm the order, remind me when payment was due- and totally trustworthy. I didn't have to worry about my cake on the wedding day at all.

I'm so happy we found Edelweiss Bakery in Rancho Bernardo. Not only are the prices completely affordable, but the cake is the most amazing I've ever tasted. They were the first vendor we booked with and they were so helpful. I'd highly recommend them to anyone getting married in San Diego.

The cake was beautful and everyone at the wedding commented on how much they loved it.

the cake was really good, the lady helping me was nice, and the price was unbeatable. only downside was at one of my tastings, I saw a spider on the table, and the lady just dropped it on the floor!!!!!!!!!!!!

that was kinda gross, but again you couldn't bet the...

Didn't end up going with this bakery for our wedding cake, but I still give it a high recommendation! Went here for a cake tastings, they were flexible on the time, and gave us TONS of cake! Lots of flavors, and fillings. Many more options than a lot of places we went too. Plus, the cake was light and moist, important factors to me!

The customer service was good, the front shop is a little small and was crowded. We did go on a Saturday morning and there were several other tastings scheduled at the same time.

Don't let the tiny shop fool you, the cakes here are delicious and beautiful. We weren't sure of our guest list total the first two times we went in, but they were flexible enough to have a "deadline" that was just a few weeks from the wedding date; plenty of time to figure things out. We were able to pick multiple fillings and types of cake so that each tier was a little different. The cake your guests are served is NOT a sheet cake - they will all get a piece of the real, and delicious wedding cake. This was huge for us as we'd tasted some cake disasters at other people's weddings where sheet cakes were served in place of the wedding cake. Delivery on wedding day was timely and worry-free.

We ended up with Chocolate Cake w/Chocolate Mousse filling and White Cake w/Lemon filling, butter cream frosting, beautiful designs on the frosting. We both loved the cake, and got lots of compliments! I wish I had more to eat now ...

I loved that I was able to use any style I wanted. They have the best tasting red velvet cake I tasted in a while. They did a great job on the cake, but it wasn't perfect.... what can I expect though if I wanted a cake worth $6,000 for the price of a small wedding cake.... :) They are great.

Edelweiss was soooo sooo yummy! I seriously have been dreaming about our wedding cake since our wedding day! I want more! I ordered a 7 inch round butter pound cake with strawberry Bavarian cream and butter cream frosting. Then I ended up going the cupcake route and ordered a bunch of butter pound cupcakes and red velvet cupcakes. Some of my pictures show a lacking table as some of the guests were a bit clueless and started eating them during cocktail hour. I had a cake topper on our cake and everything… thank goodness they didn’t touch our cutting cake! One of my Bridesmaids caught people eating them and wrote please do not eat on a small plate and put it out. I only noticed the note on the plate. I never even noticed that there were many cupcakes missing from the amount we originally set up! Small snafu but no biggie! Every little inch of cake and cupcake was gone! So good! In hindsight I would have just sucked it up and ordered a larger cake. They didn’t even charge me until the Monday after the wedding. I will for sure be making trips to Edelweiss in the future too!

Edelwieiss is wonderful. I met with them a year before our wedding to do the cake testing and selections. I didnt speak with them again until a few weeks before the wedding. I made some minor adjustments to my selections and tada.....just like that my cake was set up at the ceremony. Perfection!!! It tasted fantastic.! I would highly recommend them for their fantastic service, kind staff and reasonable prices!!!

We researched several different bakeries, cake, and cupcake options four our wedding and finally found Edelweiss. Our cake was absolutely beautiful and delicious. Everyone was raving about it. We were on a very tight budget, and when we came in to sample cakes and view different options, Edelweiss was very flexible and offered us different options that we could try to stick within our budget. Our cake served over 100 persons and only cost us $200. I would highly recommend Edelweiss to anyone searching for a beautiful, delicious and affordable cake! I plan to use them again for our future parties and events!

Cake was so yummy. And the price was right.

I can't even count how many compliments we received on our cake. It tasted delicious and looked beautiful. I was really worried about how the whole thing would turn out since we picked out a somewhat complicated design but it was awesome. I can't thank the Edelweiss Bakery enough.

I grew up just minutes from this bakery, and I’ve never had anything from there that I didn’t like. They don’t take any shortcuts with their baking, and it shows in the quality of their products. They do mostly buttercream, which is exactly what we wanted. Their cake was moist and flavorful, and everyone loved it! We got the white cake with lemon for the 1st and 3rd tiers, and chocolate for the middle. Plus, they’re one of the most reasonably priced bakeries in the city! If you’re looking for a fondant cake that’s got a complicated design, then this may not be for you. But if you want a delicious buttercream cake, then I wouldn’t look anywhere else!

You can choice from many different type of cakes, and you can order every single things you want! they will deliver from 3 tier cakes.

Edelweiss Bakery did an amazing job, especially on such sort notice! They made our wedding cake, and it looked beautiful and was exactly what we wanted. Although I never actually had a piece, we hear it was great!!

I would recommend this bakery to future brides. My wedding cake was amazing I just loved it.

Edelweiss Bakery is pretty good stuff. You can't really go wrong with any of their flavors for cake or filling and they have quiet the variety of both. Our wedding cake for about 250 people came out to maybe 8-900 or so. Very reasonable for the quality of service and taste alone. We were originally going to try the Lemon Grove Bakery which is actually better tasting in some aspects, but for the cost, you can't go wrong with Edelweiss. We would highly recommend their bakery/cakery services :)

Who would have known such an affordable wedding cake could taste so great and look so beautiful? I was lucky to have been referred to Edelweiss Bakery for my wedding cake. I selected the butter pound with hazelnut filling and vanilla frosting. This was the best tasting wedding cake I have ever had. The frosting was amazing! I still have cravings for this cake. It looked beautiful as well. I received a lot of compliments on the cake and especially the hazelnut filling.

The only negative is that I did not feel there was enough cake to serve our guests. I ordered the larger 3 tier cake that was supposed to serve 150 but it barely served 140 with small slices. I opted for the more expensive larger 3 tier as opposed to the smaller 3 tier plus the sheet cake. Perhaps I would have received more cake had I opted for the sheet cake. In any event, I wish I would have ordered an even larger cake or an extra sheet cake.

This is the best value cake company around. I shopped a lot of vendors and think they are a solid choice if you want a good cake. Nothing too fancy, but perfect for me.

we are still eating this cake, its the best one ever. Strongly recommend their lemon cake and white chocolate cake..

I looke around for affordable european cakes and also delicious tasting and here it is. I could decide which cake design to take because they have so many pick from with no extra charge. My wedding theme was black and white damask two weeks befor the wedding they had a cake displayed which was matching to my theme and I asked how much extra would this be and they said no extra charged..wow I had a wonderful looking cake which also tasted great.. Totaly recommend them.

Their cakes are absolutely delicious, very affordable, and creative. With so many options we were able to get something more traditional rather than the typical modern cakes they are doing right now. The price is by far the best in the area because I did the research. Tasted delicious and looked beautiful.

We were not able to take the left over of the cake home (top cake had box for it) so I would request a container from them or bring your own just in case! We only got to taste a little but our guests loved it and most of them had both chocolate and vanilla creations. I will definitely return to them and already have another friend I recommended using them for her wedding!!

This bakery provided last minute help for us and had so many options! They were also able to custom design our cake based and it came out perfectly, looking almost exactly like the magazine photo we gave them. Delicious cake and beautiful.

The cake was very delicious. Our family and friends really enjoyed the cake. The service was great and the prices are very affordable. We would recommend edelweiss bakery to anyone.

The cake was amazing and delicious! The service was great and the prices were very affordable. We were very happy that we chose Edelweiss Bakery for our wedding cake.

Beautiful cake and it tasted amazing too!

We were going to have our venue do our wedding cake but two weeks before the wedding, we changed our minds and tried to find an affordable bakery.

Most of the bakeries quoted us $3.75 and up per person. I was hoping there would be a better value somewhere but didn't expect Edelweiss to be so flexible. I had been going to this bakery for years and when I called for information, they were more than willing to accommodate our last minute request. We went in for our tasting that day and found the design we wanted and we were able to pick the colors we wanted. We got a 3-tier cake for $270 and an additional sheet for $75 (I think). We got the chocolate cake with white chocolate mousse. It was delicious! After all the delivery fees, changing color fees, etc. it came out to $403 (about $2.68 per person!) We had to buy the ribbon but that was $10 at Michael's�no biggie.

My wedding cake was amazing. It was a 3 teir cake with 3 different types of cake and fillings.
here is a picture of it:

The cake was delicious and looked beautiful. The tasting was a little disorganized but worked out fine.

Our cake was perfect. It was well done artistically and tasted amazing! And it was very cheap in comparison to other cake vendors I looked into using for our wedding! They delivered right on time, no problems at all. Tons of cake and filling options. We could not have been more pleased. I highly reccomend this bakery.

My husband and I chose Edelweiss last minute. We orignally had selected another vendor for our wedding cake, but the service was horrible, so we changed our minds. Since we were planning the wedding long distance, we were unable to come back out for taste testing. After our first experience, we really wanted to go with a family owned and operated bakery. We found Edelweiss on-line and based on reviews, called them. The service was amazing and easy. I just sent them a picture of what I wanted for the cake and they quoted the price. They are very reasonable with their prices and the cake was amazing. The day of our wedding, it was exactly what we wanted, it was gorgeous. There were no issues with delivery or set up. And all the guests commented on how great the cake tasted! We were extremly satisfied with Edelweiss.

I grew up down the street from Edelweiss bakery and always loved their desserts, so when I got engaged, they were my first choice to make my wedding cake. Tasting a few other too-sweet cakes at a bridal expo confirmed that thought. My fiance, mother, and I met at Edelweiss for a tasting appointment on a Saturday morning and were given the opportunity to taste every available cake/filling combo.

We went with a 3-tier/100 serving cake and given how tasty the samples were, had a heck of a time deciding on the flavors for the tiers. Not nearly as difficult was picking out how the cake would be decorated--the bakery had an extensive portfolio, and "the one" design jumped out at all of us immediately.

The cake itself was quite affordable (for a wedding cake) and ran about $2.75/slice, if I remember correctly. I knocked a few points off because the bakery had originally told us that they'd deliver the cake (for a charge) up to my wedding at a winery in Warner Springs (in far northern San Diego county). A few days later, they called us back and told us that the distance was too far, and in exchange for canceling the delivery on us, knocked 10% off the cost of the cake and agreed to construct several cake boxes so that my dad could transport the cake himself and assemble it at our venue.

The cake tasted wonderful and looked great. Other than the glitch with the delivery/transportation, we were very happy with Edelweiss providing our wedding cake.

I got a beautiful cake from this company...they made it exactly how I wanted it and it tasted amazing.

We had two cakes from Edelweiss Rancho Bernardo at our wedding, with three flavors. One of the cakes was very traditional, and looked beautiful. The other, our groom's cake, was more creative - and they really blew me away with how this turned out! It looked even better than the inspiration pictures I had given them. Plus, they tasted amazing! We didn't have any leftovers at all. And with the low price of $2.75 per slice, you really can't beat them. They also give you a free tasting, with complimentary coffee or tea. Mary is the woman in charge of weddings, and she is wonderful. I was so happy with our cakes, and I would highly recommend Edelweiss bakery.

I have been going to Edelweiss Bakery since I was a kid and knew that I wanted to have them do my cake when I got married. Not only was I satisfied with the turnout of the cake, but it tasted amazing. I can't say enough about how great they are and no one comes close when it comes to cost. I highly recommend them and couldn't say anything bad about Edelweiss Bakery.

We chose Edelweiss Bakery because of their great prices. We were not disappointed with their cake either. We were able to taste several cake flavors before making a decision. We ultimately chose white cake with a fresh strawberry filling for the 1st and 3rd tiers and chocolate with a raspberry creme filling for the middle layer. They were also able to personalize the design to what I saw in my head. They delivered the cake in a timely manner. When someone at the reception venue noticed that the ribbon seemed to be black instead of the brown I had provided, they were quick to send someone to return and fix the problem. Turns out they had in fact used the ribbon I provided, but the moisture had made it appear darker. Nonetheless, they made it look perfect again and I never knew until after the wedding. The cake was delicious and we even enjoyed the top a year later!

$250 for thee-tier 100 person cake+
$43 sheet cake + $40 delivery
This was the only place we went cake tasting, and I chose them mainly because of the price. The cake tasted good too, though I�ve heard other bakeries taste better. I like light cakes, so the white sponge and Bavarian cream with raspberry filling was perfect. We chose buttercream frosting, gave them a picture and a swatch of the BM dress color, and we were set! The cake turned out even more beautiful than I expected, and I was completely satisfied with this cake. We already ate our anniversary cake. :)

Cake tasted great and it was teh best price around. It ended up being 2.75 a piece which is by far the best price I have found to date.

The best price for a basic wedding cake.
They have tasty flavors and various style choices.

Our cake tasted wonderful and was as beautiful as anything I have seen in magazines. Plus, the prices are so much cheaper than many of the other bakerys I researched. I would definately recommend them.

We loved our wedding cake. It was picture perfect and delicious!!

Our cake was AMAZING! I even ordered an extra grooms cake that ended up being ADORABLE! I am in a different city than them, and they worked with me over the phone and by fax and everything turned out wonderful.

Amazing cake! It was beautiful and it tasted really good!

Our cake was delicious and beautiful. It looked exactly like what I wanted. The people who work there are so nice and helpful

I used Edelweiss Bakery for my wedding cake as well as for a cake for my bridal shower. Their prices are extremely reasonable and the cakes all taste delicious. The employees are all super sweet, unlike some other places I went to.

cutest little shop tucked away. They let us have cake samples without making an appointment. they gave us typical samples and even made specialized samples of what we were looking for, just for us! They helped us to design our own wedding cake without having to pick one out that someone else already had. They delivered it to the reception hall on time and in perfect condition. The cake was amazing! And the price was unbeatable!

We had cupcakes at our wedding. When I walked into the hall they had it all setup. It was great everyone loved the cupcakes and the top tier looked so good. We are saving that for our first anniversary. But delicious and a great deal for the price. We had about 150 people at our wedding.

Edelweiss Bakery is amazing. It is affordable and the cakes are beautiful. I had a huge wedding and I got a four-tiered, white, lemon-filled cake. It was delicious. Truly delicious; most of the cakes I had tried beforehand were pretty but not tasty. This was both. They decorated it with my flowers and did an exquisite job. They delivered it early and set it up exactly how I specified. I think the most surprising part of working with Edelweiss was the price. I would have been happy to pay at least $2500 for a cake that looked like mine. And mine was only $300. I really believe that everyone in the greater San Diego area should use them as their cake vendor.

I only had to go to the bakery once for the cake tasting and looking over the designs, after that, they took care of everything else.

I sent them a picture of what I wanted and they had no problem accomodating. They were also very helpful in explaining different types of choices that I had. The staff never tried to sell me more or something more expensive just to get a better sale. I'm never getting married again, because we're very happy, but if I'm in the area and need a cake~ I'm definitely going to call them!

A beautiful and tasty cake. Customized exactly how we wanted it. Delivered on time!

Edelweiss makes a great cake for a great price!

Edelweiss provided us with an EXCELLENT cake at a reasonable price. We chose chocolate with bavarian cream and raspberry preserves, white cake with lemon, and white cake with mango passionfruit filling. All layers were exquisitely designed and tasted wonderful. Highly recommended!!

Our cake was VERY delicious, the best around. Also, it looked amazing, exactly how we pictured it! Would definitely use them again! If you are a chocolate lover, the chocolate mousse filling is to die for!

GREAT CAKE! Great design and on time delivery! Thanks!!!

What a delicious cake! They make wonderful cake and other goodies and have a fantastic price. We tried several other bakeries, and many had less tasty cake with a high price tag. I highly recommend Edelweiss.

Our wedding cake was the most delicious I have ever tasted! I had a custom-made cake, which I can't believe was so affordable AND tasted so good.

We got a beautiful cake, delivered without any problems, and a very reasonable price.

This was the best wedding cake that I had tasted. I only had two weeks til my wedding and the person who was supposed to order my cake had not, so I walked in there and they made my dreams come true. It was a two-teir ivory sponge cake with bavarian cream and strawberries with a buttercream frosting. Delicious this cake had served almost 50 people even with the topper coming home with me.

Their cake was delicious and we were able to try out so many samples when we came in. They had a very large book of ideas and the baker himself talked with us. They also delivered with no problem to our wedding location that was at least 20 miles away.

Delicious cake and customer service like I was a close personal friend.
