    Sylvia made the most delicious cupcakes and cake that I've ever had! I was super nervous messaging her because we were only 11 days out from our wedding date (after the wedding had to be moved up due to unforeseen circumstances) but she was able to get it done! She is incredibly well priced and I'm telling you right now - if you get any kind of cupcakes from her, you will not be able to only eat one! I probably had 3 myself in under 20 minutes! I couldn't recommend her more, not only for price but for quality. You won't find anyone better to bake for your special occasion! A picture of the wedding cake. It's not the best photo just a quick one I took on my phone but we have a nice photo that I'll post once all the wedding photos are edited!!

    Due to a mix up with my sisters I ended up having to try and find a bakery to make a custom cake for my nephew's birthday 6 days prior to the party. I was looking for a fondant cake for 15 people. I reached out to about 10 bakeries, the majority telling me they couldn't help me which I completely understood. Sylvia returned my message on Wednesday agreeing to make a cake in the shape of a shoebox with a sneaker cutout made of fondant on the top, ready for pick up by Saturday at 1pm. She told me the price would be $155, which I thought was hefty but I really wanted to make my nephew happy so agreed to it. On Saturday the day of pick up at 11am, I text her to see what time they closed bc I thought maybe it would be easier to pick up the cake on my way to San Antonio. Turns out they were closing early at noon. I'm not sure when she intended to let me know since we agreed the cake would be ready for me at 1pm. I brushed it off and rushed over to pick up the cake. At pick up, the cake looked nothing like the photos I had shown her. The fondant work was sloppy and amateur, look at the corners in the photo below. I was completely disappointed but decided to let it pass thinking it was my fault for giving such short notice. After paying for the cake I was told they had no box to fit the cake! I was told to transport the cake home on the cardboard it came on with nothing else. This was the last straw for me! Please don't agree to make a cake if you're going to make half an effort towards making it and charge customers an astronomical price! Also if you know the customer is coming to pick up the cake it should be ready for transport and not given to the customer on a piece of cardboard. I'm all about supporting local businesses. My son's birthday cake in April was made from a local mom baker who did an amazing job. I will never be back to this place and those considering it, take my experience as a warning. Ps. The cake was very dry and sweet, hardly anyone ate it at the party.

    Wedding cake falling apart!! Could not be served!

    The wedding cake made here was a disaster. It literally could not be served as it fell apart when the caterer tried to cut it. You can see this in the photo. And, NO REFUND IS BEING OFFERED!

    The cheese danish here is the best I've ever had. Seriously. Flaky, buttery pastry, lots of cheese,…read moreand big enough to share if you're feeling generous. Get there early, though 'cause I think they're usually sold out by around noon. I also tried a kolache here for the first time and loved it, but be prepared for DOUGHY if that's your jam. Pun possibly intended. I don't drink coffee, so I can't speak to that, but the bakery is inside Meridian, which is worth a visit on its own. They have a tincture wall, and the bar next door actually uses some of them in mocktails. I've had one and really enjoyed it. Meridian also has a really nice selection of quality gifts. I've got my eye on the pillows in the back, and after my last visit I'm also tempted by one of the comfy-looking dresses. There's plenty of seating next door too, where I try to make it regularly for the free Tuesday comedy night. Five stars for that cheese danish alone. Just don't sleep in.

    I already knew I loved the sourdough here - it's fresh baked and lovely. Perfect for a sandwich or…read morejust butter on toast. Today I ordered the cinnamon roll and breakfast sandwich with bacon and wow, this place is incredible! I ordered delivery and it was at my house ten minutes before I had expected it which was really great and quick. The breakfast sandwich was on a delectable croissant with perfectly cooked eggs, cheese and tasty bacon. The cinnamon roll was so soft, dripping with the most luscious topping. I was going to have one, I ended up having both right away!! Super yummy.

    Love the taste of the valley! There is no other like it. I have mixed feelings about Abuelita's…read more Most times, we can pick up some conchas on a Saturday morning and they have the perfect amount of sugar, they are soft and warm. Today not so much. They were not soft like I hoped. The conchas did not taste fresh and it was early in the morning. In the past, the conchas have not had enough sugar. I continue to go because I love the flavor. I wonder whether they have different bakers because it's not very consistent.

    This place usually has some good sweets and array of Mexican pastries. You can tell they have that…read morehomemade feel and taste to them. We came midday (around 2) and there was still a decent amount of pastries left. They were a little on the pricey side from the last time I visited...and TeaNergy that was across the highway now shares a business space with them, but ran by one person behind the counter for both. It's very strange. While abuelita's items were mostly priced (I had to ask about the multi pack I wanted since it was not labeled and didn't have signage) - TeaNergy on the other hand, ZERO pricing and no info on how much caffeine was in each size. I went on the TeaNergy website using the provided QR code and there's no info on caffeine amounts, which seems a little dangerous. While I don't so much favor the TeaNergy lack of info, Abuelita's pastries are what made me stop here. If I'm in Kyle again, I'd for sure make a stop here for the pastries, maybe not the tea tho.
