Unfortunately, we had a very bad experience. I ordered a small wedding cake to about 8 days before my small wedding. I arranged to pick up the cake by 1 pm -- 8 days later. First, when I arrived no one seemed to be able to find my cake as several people checked the display area many times. After about 10 minutes I was told it was being finished in the back...by now it after I pm. Someone asked me what color I wanted the writing on the cake, I asked for a recommendation and she recommended white. When the cake came out the icing was very thin white writing and I could barely see it. I sent it back to have the writing stand out a bit. I thought it was fine until I was at our little reception when one of my guests pointed out the our last name was spelled wrong. It became a running joke during the reception. All of that would have not been that bad had the cake tasted good. It was very dry and no one liked the taste. I have never had that experience before...who does not like cake, but there was something wrong with this cake. Two of my guests said it seemed like there was a missing ingredient. I must say that this was a very disappointing experience. My wife believes that someone forgot to make the cake and they quickly put something together as the cake tasted stale. For a cake that cost over $100, this was upsetting. Of course, we will never know for sure what happened. Needless to say, my new wife and those attending my wedding certainly do not recommend the Alexandria Pastry Shop.
