We had a photo of a specific cake we wanted, and Alphorn delivered it even better than we imagined! They were a breeze to work with from the cake tasting to design. They even created the perfect groom's cake for the nautical theme we wanted. We froze some of the left over cake while we were on our honeymoon, and have since defrosted it....it's still just as yummy! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

Peter of Alphorn Bakery, is my favorite bakery ever! Peter has made 5 cakes for me in the last year, and is the only place I go for my birthday cakes! I can't wait to get married... Peter.will be right there making my cakes. Not only are the prices to die for, but the service is spectacular by far! Well recommended for all cake sizes.

I absolutely loved my wedding cake from Peter at Alphorn. My planning/tasting session with him was so much fun. I loved going into his kitchen and creating my cake. I brought photos of what I thought I might like but after my meeting with him, I completely changed eveything and had a more spectaular cake than I even dreamed of. Thank you Peter for all your guidance! All the favors I selected were amazing. My venue (Villa Rinata) saved a piece of each so I didn't miss out on any of it. Robert & I had a late night treat on our wedding night. It was a delicious way to end the perfect day!

The owner was very great to work with. After my initial meeting, I couldn't decide on filling choices and he let me pick up some additional cake pieces to try more filling choices. I thought that was very generous and going above and beyond. The cakes came out just as pretty as I had hoped and my guests said they tasted great. This vendor was contracted through my reception site, Villa Rinata, so it was included in my catering cost to Villa Rinata.

Alphorn Bakery met our expectations and was the best vendor to deal with during our reception. This is just a small piece of the event but everything went as we were told and they completely delivered a great product and service. Peter Hobi was very courteous and prompt with our requests. We highly recommend them, my friend who is getting married in October will be using them because of our praise, and because they loved the cake and strawberries which were a big hit at the event.

Alphorn Bakery was so wonderful and dependable. They really take the time and have a great creative mind with out the CRAZY cost. Our cake was not only delicious it looked so wonderful people were commenting all night. You could not ask for a more down to earth and likeable place. We will order cakes from him for years to come. If you want great cake, awesome design and cost effective you must use Alphorn Bakery.

Peter is a very good hearted and down to earth man. His cakes out-do any of the other over priced big name competitors in the Houston area. (tastes 100% better and half the price). Peter is by word of mouth mainly however he makes cakes for very famous people and sports teams on a regular basis, to name just a couple. He will design the cake for you on paper at your first meeting and it will be exactly as planned the day of the wedding. This caterer is well worth the money and I would recommend him for any event big or small.

Peter did a great job. The cakes were both beautiful and delicious. Delivery, tax, and placing the flowers on the cake for decoration were all included in the cost. He was a pleasure to work with.

Peter, the pastry chef/ owner is fantastic! His cakes are the best I've ever tasted... (I saw 6 other bakers before selecting Alphorn's raspberry bovarian & raspberry amaretto). The price was comparable to other bakeries in the area, I believe it was $3.50/ slice bride's cake, which sounds expensive but unfortunately that's the going rate. But I found that other bakeries really try to sell you more cake than you need, while Alphorn made the cake based on the number of guests that I needed to feed.

During the cake tasting we had a 30 minute conversation about all of the humanitarian work that Peter does. He's a really great person and an amazing chef... and he tells great stories!

Peter was so easy to work with, and was willing to work with us on short notice!! He made the grooms cake and it turned out so great. And, it was as tasty as it was cool-looking. I will work with him again!

I had specified a cascade of flowers down the cake. Peter Hobi indicated that this would typically be more expensive but that he would spare me the charge. Well, he left out the flowers, which left a perfectly presentable cake but not one that I envisioned. Had I known he was going to leave out the flowers, I would have paid more and gone with another baker.

Peter conceptualized exactly what I wanted. I said "simple but elegant" and he drew out a design that I'd been picturing for weeks. He was very responsive to what I wanted. In addition, his prices were unbelievably good. His prices are wholesale. He quoted and charged $400 less than The Cake Lady in Friendswood for the same quality cake. It was beautiful and delicious. Oh, and he delivered all the way to Galveston for free. If you haven't heard of him, this is why: he makes such a quality product that he puts no money into advertising - its all word of mouth. And word of mouth keeps him very busy.

Peter Hobi's cakes are magical. He only provides his services to hotels and for weddings. Usually pretty cakes taste just OK, not the case with Peter's cakes. They are scrumptious. We had a hard time picking which cake to choose they were all so good. Delivered and set-up on time, provided extra flowers to decorate the cake table. Highly recommend for a stress-free wedding (if such a thing is possible). Pricing is very reasonable.
