While out in New Braunfels for the annual Christmas tree lighting, I decided to give this little jewel a try. This location was formerly a breakfast spot I used to frequent before it closed, so I was familiar with the layout of the place. Upon walking in you see a setup similar to a sandwich shop, but with cake. You select your cake type (vanilla, chocolate, red velvet, etc.) then you choose your icing. Many different types of yummy icing. I was a little late and missed out on the vanilla cake. So, I opted for cheesecake, chocolate cake with banana pudding flavored icing. I opted to pass on the additional toppings. I paid my $8 and was out the door. Not a bad price for what I got. Service was also great as well. I got home and jumped right into it. I honestly was expecting a dry cake since it was sitting out for a while, but it was quite the contrary. The cake was plenty moist and the banana pudding icing was yummy. Next time I am downtown I will return. I definitely recommend you trying this place if you are nearby. Enjoy! read more

I went in today after seeing a blurb about it on fb. Cute shop! Unfortunately, I didn't get anything. The young woman who was working didn't know what fat (butter, shortening, etc) they use in their icing, and she did not have an ingredient list. I like to be able to make an informed decision about what I'm eating. Cake Bar, why don't you want people making an informed decision about the food that they eat? read more

The cakes were so rich and the presentation was super cute! The woman that helped us was very kind and explained what makes them so unique and how the cake bar works. Definitely going back to try their coffee and other flavors. read more

SUPER nice staff. Explained their menu well. Cutest spot to hangout and get ice cream. Can't wait to come back and try out the flights they offer and some cake! read more

I was visiting town with a friend when we found this place. I liked the concept of the place and wanted to give it a try. The place was clean and neat inside. We were able to get a table thankfully before the crowd showed up. The women that worked there were great and very patient with us as we were figuring out what we wanted. We had ordered a few cakes to try. My cake was red velvet, oreo filling, topped with vanilla cake, buttercream frosting and strawberries. My cake tasted very good and I really enjoyed it. The frosting was pretty sweet but I was able to handle it. I liked how we can build our own cake however we want. My friend had a carrot cake with chocolate cover strawberry on top and her cake tasted nice too. I did order another cake for my mother which was a brownie with buttercream and chocolate cake on top. The cake tasted fine but the brownie wasn't that impressive. The brownie was hard and it didn't taste as sweet as I hoped. We had also ordered a flight of coffees to give a try. I really liked the tres leches coffee tasted good and sweet but not overpowering. N-bee honestly just tasted like coffee with not much added i was expecting more. After I mixed it with the pink cream on top it tasted better. The blueberry muffin one i didnt taste any blueberry at all. Probably my least favorite one for sure. I didnt get a chance to try campfire but my friend liked it. Overall it was a fun concept and happy I had the opportunity to visit. If I come back I would try something other coffees and maybe different combo for my cake. read more

I think this is an awesome idea but I feel like execution is just as important. We tried to go our first time at 6pm and they were sold out of cake. Our second time we called before and they were stocked. The vanilla cake and chocolate cake was delicious. The red velvet was super dry and left a lot to desire. The butter cream tasted like store bought Betty Crocker. I wasn't that fond of it. The Oreo filling was good! The inside was super cute and they had other things like coffee and matcha that we didn't try. They also had little small things to look at shopping wise. read more

First, note on door says penny shortage, they just stopped minting them how many millions are still in circulation crazy. I'm getting really frustrated with restaurants that charge to use a credit card which this place does. It's a cost of doing business. It's a really interesting concept. Unfortunately, the cake was a little drier than what I would have liked so not a fan. read more

I rounded up for the 4 stars. Overall, great concept and I hope this place sticks around. So many times so people just crave a piece of cake and now that is a reality. I was here with a girlfriend for a girls day and we both built our own cake. Slices could be easily split or shared as they are rich. I thought the selection was good. I think there was about 5-6 options for each item (cake, frosting, filling). A few cons though. Not much seating indoors. I wish there was a few other savory items, but the kolache was enjoyable. The icing is very sweet and the cake was a little dry. The filling scoops are cute, but when you make a layered cake, the filling doesn't evenly spread. Friendly staff, chill and cute environment. Great for a date or outing. Overall enjoyed snd would go back. read more

The Cake Bar - Strawberries, frosting, chocolate and vanilla cake and chocolate mousse. Vanilla cake, frosting, with banana filling. - Patisserie/Cake Shop Near Me - New Braunfels, Texas

This place is awesome! The owner was soo helpful and really sweet, the younger blonde girl was really cool; The other girl working with her did give herself a tip before my dad could which was kinda weird honestly, but we were gonna tip anyway so it's fine. It was just a bit strange she tapped the tip and the "done" when my dad was asking where to insert/tap his card. We came at 730pm. read more

super good! i like that they have so many different options. i was already full when i went there, but couldn't pass it up. i ordered red velvet and vanilla cake with the cheesecake mousse and it was good! the people in my group also tried the carrot cake, normal cheesecake, banana mousse and oreo mousse and they were all good! buttercream was good but not my favorite so i'll definitely try the whipped icing next time! read more

This place is amazing! Do I like all the flavors? No but who likes every flavor of anything? These people saying how great it is then saying "I don't like carrot cake" and giving a bad review are ridiculous! Your kids will LOVE it! And to "Jim" who is complaining about the penny shortage get a life dude, they have no control over a government program!!! If you don't like it, pay with your cc! read more

The staff was incredibly kind and welcoming! The cake itself was actually pretty good, but the icing was overwhelmingly sweet--except for the chocolate cake, which oddly tasted like it had no sugar at all. The concept is fun, but the interior felt a little cheap and underwhelming. Overall, it's a creative idea, just not executed as well as it could be. read more

Stop here fir first time shop looks so cute decorated. Staff is amazing fast and friendly. As for the cake cold be better. Cake was dry and frosting too too sweet not flavors. For the price please improve the texture quality. Nothing But Bunt I'd do much better. Cute shop though attracts people for sure read more

I've been seeing the cutest TikToks about Cake Bar in New Braunfels, so my friend and I finally stopped by! She got some Hershey's ice cream, which was super yummy and perfect for the Texas heat. I was really excited to try the cake slices, especially since I'm a big fan of whipped cream icing and anything salted caramel! I ended up trying four slices: two chocolate (salted caramel + Bavarian cream) and two vanilla (Fruity Pebbles + Oreo). The chocolate cake was a bit too dense for me, and overall, the slices just didn't wow me like I hoped. The vanilla was better, and I did really like the salted caramel whipped topping! That said, I probably wouldn't go back for the cake slices, but I'd still stop by again to try something different or grab a cute pic, because the vibe is adorable! read more

We stopped by Cake Bar and tried their "Build a Slice" option, which comes as a two-layer creation. One slice was classic chocolate cake with buttercream frosting--sweet, decadent, and everything you want from chocolate cake. The other was a unique mix of lemon cake, carrot cake, buttercream, and banana pudding frosting. Surprisingly, the unusual combination worked really well. The cake was moist and soft. Hopefully, they'll have the same flavors next time. If you've got a sweet tooth or want to try something outside the ordinary, Cake Bar is worth a visit. read more

The sweet treats and drinks were absolutely delicious and a nice little surprise! I found out it's the owners that opened this location also own the sweet spot in San Marcos just with a new concept and the quality definitely didn't disappoint. I love both spots and it's nice to have this available closer to home! read more

This place is really cute, and great for kids. Fun concept, but the cake was just ok.

We stopped in today on our way home from downtown for a few "build your own" cake slices. This is some of the best cake I've ever had! It's overall not too sweet and very flavorful. I love the concept of being able to pick my cakes, fillings, and frosting. We built two: almond cake, Bavarian cream filling and brown sugar cake and a cheesecake, fruity pebbles filling and finger to cake. Both were 10/10 The service was quick and friendly. I cannot wait to go again and try something new! P.s. I didn't have one but their muffins and cookies also looked incredible! read more

Walked in just to check out the new place and left with the beat blueberry muffin I have ever eaten. My fiancé and I were shocked. This place is super cute and the staff are super friendly. Must check this place out ! read more

What an amazing concept. Went here with some friends for a birthday treat after floating the river. The cake was good, but the real star of the show was the fillings we all agreed that our fillings were phenomenal. The cake slice was a decent size and really sweet. Most of us ended taking some home because we couldn't finish them. The people were working were super sweet. They could use more tables and seating options and I would like more options for the build your own cake option because that's the draw of the cafe and that felt very limited, but I would absolutely go back for a special occasion. read more

The atmosphere of the cake bar is undeniable!! It is so pretty and pink and perfect for Photos! The service was amazing such sweet people! I had their take on a dirty Dr Pepper. Honestly, the Dr Pepper tasted a little watered down. It also could have been the amount or type of creamer used. I also built my own cake. I really love their brownie and cookie base. Unfortunately, I wasn't a fan of the icing in between. It was a tad too sweet for me, but up to interpretation. Overall great vibes, but definitely would think about ordering something other than the cake bar and the dirty Dr Pepper. read more
