Pastries Ala Carte

The cake was excellent. I can not answer on value because the cake was part of the Youghiogheny Country Club's Gold Package. I'm guessing this bakery, on it's own, would have a good value.

Our cake tasted amazing, it looked amazing! The guests at our wedding said "it was the best wedding cake they had ever had in their life!" We were so happy with the quality and service at Pastrie A La Carte. And we even made sure WE had the cake - and we loved it!!

The staff did an amazing job bringing all of my ideas to life. The cake was perfect and the sheen of my dress and the icing on the cake matched to a "T." Let alone the design, the taste was out of this world. Everyone loved it. I am so upset that I didn't get a piece of the cake, but hopefully we make it out to their location and order some just for ourselves in the near future!

I liked the cake decorator that i worked with. She was very nice and the cake tasted really good, but it wasn't at all what i had ordered, or what we talked about at all, it was like she didn't even look at the notes she wrote down, and did what she wanted to! Cakes are alot of money, and they should be just what the bride and groom want! She did give me back half the price of my cake, and was very sorry for the mix up.

im not real sure about how the cake tasted because i only got the chance to have a small bite when we cut it, but i was told that it was stale... it also did not look how we wanted it to... there were white lines through the black fondant that was supposed to look like ribbon or satin and ended up looking like a street... i wouldnt use this company again and wouldnt recommend it.

We loved our cake. They were very easy to work with and did exactly what we asked. Our cake was delicious. They even gave us a gift card to come back in a year to get a small cake on our anniversary!

I didn't get to work with them as much, but the cake was sooooo good. The cake was red velvet, with buttercream, and it looked beautiful!!!

Our cakes were fantastic!! Kathy from Pastries a la Carte was so helpful during our tasting and the planning of what our cakes (wedding & groom's) looked like.

We received so many compliments on how different our cake was and how good it tasted. I can't wait to have more from our top tier on our anniversary!

The only thing I would say against this bakery is that our venue had originally set up the cake table on the dance floor. It ended up being a little wobbly for the cake. So the table was moved to a different part of the room. The person who delivered our cake left it in pieces (top two tiers were not set up on the bottom two) because he claimed "the table just wasn't strong enough". Turns out, he just wanted to get back to the bakery.

Thankfully, my mom used to make wedding cakes as a hobby and went into the reception hall prior to everyone being seated and fixed the cake and put it together how it should be. It looked great and I didn't even know anything was wrong until I heard about it after my honeymoon.

I was very excited about my wedding cake from this bakery. The cake was very important to us. Ufortunatley, the sheet cake we got on our wedding day was wrong. The 4 tier cake was right- but the sheet cake that was served to the majority of our guests ( as well as the bridal party) contained the wrong filling and icing. We only received a very small refund. I would not recomend this bakery to anyone. We were very upset about the cake... it was really importamt to us.

Pastries Ala Carte made the wedding cake for my daughter's wedding on July 3rd, 2010. It looked beautiful and tasted just as good. I was very pleased with the fact that I got to take home the left over tortes we tried so my daughter could try them, too, since she could not be at the original meeting. The cake was delivered on time and set up wonderfully.

Delicious, BEAUTIFUL cake!!!! Highly recommended

The people at pastries ala cart were so easy to work with. I gave them a drawing of what I wanted my cake to look like and that is what I got. I dont know about other areas of the country but in western Pennsylvania its a tradition to have massive amounts of cookies at your reception and we ordered a lot of the cookies from pastries. The guests could not stop raving about them.

After meeting and tasting numerous wedding cakes. we decide on this bakery. the cake is so good and you can pick so many different fillings. we decided on the white cake with raspberry filling and some layers with chocolate mousse filling.the price was very affordable and the people are very friendly. They will even bake a new cake for the 1st anniversay. instead of eating cake frozen for 1 year.

Our cake was from Pastries Ala Carte. I choose the cake from a picture. When we arrived at the banquet facility I was stunned to see how beautiful it was in person. It looked exactly like the photo. I was alittle worried because we choose carrot cake and I was not sure how it would decorate (i.e. if icing would be smooth) It was perfect. Everyone was surprised when we cut the cake to find out that it was carrot. It was a big hit with our guests. It was not only beautiful but delicious. It was extremely fresh and moist. We had a luncheon the next day so I cut the top of the cake for dessert for everyone. The cake was still very fresh and moist. We have decided to have pastries ala carte bake us a new one next year for our anniversary.

I use pastries ala carte for all of my cakes, including the most important cake of my life.....my wedding cake. I had a very different cake; it was styrofoam. Yes, I said styrofoam. NONE of my guests at my wedding even realized that this was a fake cake until they started eating their cake, when it was still on the table. They made this cake exactly as I pictured and helped them design it. The only issue I had was when looking at the cake a ribbon or two had actually fallen off the cake ( because the icing was completely real with real flowers), but I think it was due to the heat of the facility. None the less, the cake was absolutely amazing tasting and I will continue to get my cakes from them! Thanks again!

Cake looked pretty and tasted good!

We had sheet cakes made, but a small cake with a bride and groom on an island on a small cake that we wrapped up to eat on our first anniversary.
