The pictures do look good, wondering if they taste good as well

作者: kaimui22 時間: 2010-2-22 17:39

i emailed them for a quote..they didn't answer me till a week later

anyways, here are some of the prices (big enough for 4 ppl) :
flat cake $100
2D cake $150
3D cake $250

and these DO NOT include special toppings or things..just plain cake...
I ended up going to Kam Si and getting a 3D doraemon cake for $28...with mango pudding too

作者: tweety 時間: 2010-2-22 18:18

I emailed them and they reply me after 2 days.. they said that they can do whatever shape I want.. just email them a picture

I want a monchichi's head with strawberries around for 6 people..

they emailed me back and said, " for a 8 x 3" cake base with monchichi's head covered with strawberries around the body part, price would be around $275 + for 6 to 8 people, different filling different prices"

wow.. they scared me.. it's end up I just asked st. germain scan the picture on top of my cake.. it's less than $60

well.. their cake look nice.. but don't like their fillings

is anyone try them before?

作者: myversa 時間: 2010-2-22 20:15

I phoned them and they told me for a bag design it would be roughly 100-200 bucks.

作者: tofu 時間: 2010-2-22 22:30

作者: myversa 時間: 2010-2-23 14:46

Thanks. all of them look great. I will try to order from the last one since it's not downtown.

作者: 布小熊 時間: 2010-2-23 15:40

Thomas Haas is not downtown either. It's next to Lumiere and DB Bistro (ex-Feenies) and other than cakes and chocolate, they serve some yummy lunch items too.

作者: myversa 時間: 2010-2-24 12:18

too bad the last one you need 2 weeks in-advance order....

作者: fibbi 時間: 2010-2-24 12:24

2nd Thomas Hass cake as well...
Tastes great and price is not too high ...to my surprise.

作者: low_B 時間: 2010-2-24 13:34

Ganache is really good!!!

For sure, just PM her

Kreations on Cambie does those specialty cakes, just give her the picture. The pastry chef is japanese and if you taste and figure out the cakes a bit too sweet, u can tell her and she can reduce sugar.

Ganache is only okay to me because sometimes their combination is kinda weird. They add too much flavours in one cake and I don't taste them most of the time, kinda blend.

I like Thomas Haas, their chocolates are also pretty good!

Well...there's no pastry shop I find is perfect for every kinds of cake. I actually go to each one for a particular kind I like.

The 3D cake looks good but may not be taste good

Sorry I got it off Internet.

I ordered from Thomas Haas.  I told them I wanted a white chocolate cake and they suggested the princess cake.  I could not find any info of their cake online so I said okay.

When I went to pick it up, the shop was filled with people.  Their long lineup people waiting to take order was amazing.  Their coffee smelled good.  I finally got my cake and it was inside a nice box.

My wife and I tried it last night after all the happy birthday celebration.  The design of the cake was okay.  The top layer was some kind of berries.  It was a cheese cake with white chocolate sprinkling outside.  It was not really what I had in mind.  I was hoping it was a white chocolate cake like I would find in TnT.  Nevertheless, the cake itself tasted good.  It was not too sweet like all the other cheese cake I had try before.

I like the cake and thank you for the suggestion.

Interesting! Try their real chocolate dessert next time. ^_^
A picture of their extra dark hot chocolate for you and your wife:

作者: myversa 時間: 2010-2-28 09:54

I know. I want to really try their coffee. It smelled good and very eye-appealing too.

I saw they have different kind of small chocolates. Do you know which ones are good? Too many to choose from.

作者: 布小熊 時間: 2010-2-28 10:15

I guess choice of chocolate depends on what you like. (e.g. I love caramel and sea salt chocolate, dark chocolate, things with dark rum...etc)
You can order a few pieces and try it out there. Then pick your own box.
Did you see Thomas there? He is now mostly at the Broadway store and his wife (I think she is Chinese) is mostly at their N. Van location.
