EUROPEAN CAKE GALLERY

First things first, they know how to make a cake! Our guests were raving about it all night long, and literally ate the whole thing (minus the top layer, which we saved). We got their famous Swiss Black Forest, White Bavarian, and German Chocolate, and they are all to die for! The prices are very very inexpensive as well.

My only gripe was the ordering/tasting. We went to the shop two months before our wedding to do some tasting and make sure we liked what they had to offer. We were only ordering for about 65 people, and when we told the girl at the counter when our wedding was, she blew us off because she said it was not enough time, and they can't "guarantee we will get what we want". I showed her the line from their website that said: "You can place your order as soon as you like; 3 – 4 weeks gives us plenty of time.", which shut her up. After that, everything went smoothly, and we were happy with the service from...

Our white bavarian cream cake was the talk of the reception! It was so delicious many guests had seconds! They don't take credit cards over the phone for payment, but the cake was a great value and very reasonably priced!

Just perfect!!!!!!!!!!!! Looked and tasted amazing. I got the whipped smooth frosting because I was more about taste than anything. IT LOOKED AMAZING:-) SO CLEAN AND SMOOTH!!! Very Impressed with them. Highly Recommend!!

European Cakes in San Diego makes the Best Cakes!!! We ordered the chocolate cake for our wedding and it was the best not too sweet like some of the other cakes. The florist added the final touches and it was beautiful, Thanks European Cakes for making our day special!!

I just read about someone's cake being frozen and I am so glad that didn't happen to me. I ended up going here through my reception vendor. They're known for they're whip cream frosting and shavings of chocolate sprinkled all over. I wanted a buttercream cake without the shavings and they were able to do this. The cakes they have to offer are just a few but the truffle and carrot cake are the BEST!!! I had them to a plain white butter cream and decorate the outside with white chocolate shells and starfish. Just beautiful!!!! Again my situation is unique because the venue actually bought the white chocolate pieces to give to the bakery to put on but overall i was satisfied with the taste and look of my cake , it was beautiful!!!

Brides, beware!!! So disappointed! I ordered my wedding cake from this place and I almost cried at my wedding because when my husband and I tried to cut into the cake, it was completely frozen still! If this wasn't disturbing enough, I had called about 2 weeks before my wedding because I'd seen so many bad reviews and people saying their cakes were still frozen, and was worried that this would be the case for my cake too. When I spoke with someone there, they told me that none of their wedding cakes are "fresh" and that they take the cakes out of the freezer at 2pm for an evening wedding. She offered to take it out at 12 instead since I was worried about having a frozen cake, but told me that I would need to call on the day of the wedding to remind them to take it out! Seriously? I don't understand why someone couldn't just make a note on the cake, or by the phone, or on a cork board or whatever to remind themselves to do this! My coordinator did indeed call to have them take the cake out at 12, but again, it was still frozen by the time we cut the cake (9:30 pm). It was so embarrassing because we couldn't even get the knife half way through the cake! We had three flavors - chocolate truffle, white bavarian cream, and german chocolate - and the only one that was relatively good was the truffle. The other two were tasteless! Totally different than when I went in for my tasting. If I had the chance to get my money back, I definitely would! This place is horrible. The cake was the ONLY thing that went wrong at my wedding!

P.S. Their signature cake, Black Forest, is totally tasteless too. I don't know how these people were able to build their name off of that junk!

My cake was beautifully decorated and everyone enjoyed it! I didn't really get to eat any until the next day, but it was still just a great the next day. They helped us pick out our selection and were very patient with us while I changed my mind three times.

If you use Diane's Flowers Please, she will pick up the cake and deliver it to your venue for free. They were by far the least expensive and the tastiest cake we tried. They don't do a lot with different types of frosting, but the cake is so delicious, they don't need to! I can't tell you how many compliments I got on the cake. I suggest that you stick to only two flavors because people will want to try each one.

Oh my gosh!!! We love every bit of our cake!! European Cake Gallery really delivered a very delicious cake! We had two different chocolate flavors and they were just awesome! The price of our cake was really reasonable too! All our guests loved our cake. Some even had more that two slices!! So future brides, European Cake Gallery is the place to be for a very delicious cake!

this family owned bakery is the best bakery ever! the service was great, everyone was helpful and friendly, they never rushed us - and were on top of our wedding. Our cake cost came down to $2.40/slice (which we thought was a great deal!) and our cake was exactly as we wanted it: white with shavings, alternating layers of black forest and white raspberry bavarian, 5 tiers. They delivered and set it up for $30 and it was beautiful. I wouldn't have found them if their black forest cake wasn't my mom-in-laws favorite, i love them and plan to use them in the future for all other occassions.

Great tasting cake and it looked great as well!

Beautiful cake that tasted great, too.

Their delicious cakes are a great value. I received many compliments on my cake. I chose white choco shavings for decor to keep price low. I recommend their white/rasp, black forest, the choco one, & their carrot is also delicious. However, w/ nut allergy risks, i thought it best to stay away from the carrot cake.

They're a no-nonsense bakery. Come in, buy to taste, order. Pickup & assemble yourself.

AMAZING CAKE. I crave it every day. AMAZING VALUE, 75% less than the competitors and 200 times better tasting! Check this place out!

I wanted a cake that tasted good and was affordable. European Cake Gallery delivered just that. Their cakes aren't the designer fondant covered things you see in bridal magazine. They're just covered in icing or chocolate shavings. I got the whip cream icing and my florist put fresh flowers on it to match my bouquet. This meant I could get a big cake for a lot less than I was expecting to pay. I got 3 tiers (2 swiss black forest, 1 bavarian cream) and it was yummy.
The only con I have is that they don't deliver. But if you're a do-it-yourself-oriented bride and you're trying to save money but not skimp on quality of taste I really recommend them.

We had been to a wedding 3 years earlier that had cakes from The European Cake Gallery and I told my then boyfriend that we would get the same cakes. Delicious. When my wedding came aroun we went to other bakeries and the cakes were yummy but they tatsted a bit "store bought" I then went to the European Cake Gallery and the cake melts in your mouth. I order the Swiss Black Forest and The white cakes with raspberries - both with shaved chocolate on top. Everyone loved the cakes and the price was very reasonable.

This is the best cake in town, and for the price, oh my gosh, why would you go anywhere else?
We had 4 different levels and 4 different flavors, the only thing thye aren't flexible on is the design. I was willing to pay extra for them to put shells on it, but they said that a florists should do that (i got my flowers shipped in from hawaii, so no florists came which left my family in charge of cake decorating when it arrived). But if you have a local florist then go with it! It's amazing cake, beautifully done, everyone raved about the cake and I only paid 375 for the whole thing! it fed 180 people!

Great cake, good selection, easy to work with

I loved this cake since before looking for a wedding cake! I knew I did not want any other cake but this wonderful swiss black forest chocolate cake!!!

This bakery is amazing! They make great cake and can personalize it for your big day. We ended up getting three small round cakes, and two large sheet cakes. It was perfect! The only thing I would recommend is having it all delivered. That saves time and hassle of worrying about the cake falling over or getting damaged.

This was the best cake I've ever had! The staff was friendly and helpful, there was a welcoming "family business" feel to the store. There were options for every taste and budget, and were very affordable compared to other bakeries I visited. Everyone loved the look and taste of the cake. I HIGHLY recommend them, I wish I still lived in the area to order more items for other events!

wow!! My (now) husband and I were so impressed with the taste!!! We ordered a 3-tier cake, each layer was a different flavor cake! So delicious!!! They make the cake EXACTLY how I wanted it! So much work when into making it look perfect. And the staff make sure they we knew how to transport our cake and assemble it to make sure it stayed just as beautiful! I could eat one of these EVERY day!!!!!
