Gerhard Michler Fine European Desserts

Gerhard Michler's tiny spot is hidden beneath a. industrial building. I took an Uber ride to find this place. Parking is limited at this location.I was grateful to try their last chocolate hazelnut mousse cake with my family. Their chocolate was made of fine quality cocoa. The cake appeared rich yet the cake was layered professionally to balance out the flavors. We also ordered a few pastries: opera cake and strawberry. My son loved his strawberry treat. The opera cake had a nice delicate flavor. It is best to preorder cakes rather than risking the chance of securing one for a last minute party.

Went on Yelp to search for a bakery with good ratings for my sister's birthday cake. Found Gerhard Michele and decided to give it a try. I ordered the tiramisu because it seemed like the least sweet, as our whole family prefer desserts that are not too sweet. The cake turned out to be authentic and delicious. We will definitely be back.

Last minute cake because our favorite birthday cake bakery is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. It was not difficult to find the location, but we didn't know where we were allowed to park. Since we didn't preorder, we had to choose from the 2 cakes in the case. The hazelnut chocolate cake was rich and delicious. The price was more than fair. But I decided to pick up a small piece of the tiramisu. That was disappointing. The mascarpone was a bit firmer than I like. The cake layer was also firm, a bit dry. Maybe out in the case too long for a very small piece? Will definitely order and buy again. Everyone enjoyed the cake.

I've placed several birthday cake orders over the coarse of a few years here. I remember when the price was $29.45 back in 2016 when I placed my first order and now the same cake has gone up to $44.50. Still worth every penny! Check out their website, they have at least 22 cakes. I'd email my order a few days in advance for a Saturday morning pick up and it's always ready on time. Each cake can easily feed up to 12 people or more. Some of the cakes have at least 5 layers! I like that they don't taste overly sweet and they are moist.

Delicious!!! Everything tastes amazing. A staple in San Francisco that everyone who visits must try.

4 stars for the cake, 5 stars for service, value, and availability. I forgot to order a birthday cake for my boyfriend and had to find one last-minute; I found this place because I looked up buche de Noel in his neighborhood. Unfortunately, they only make them for the Christmas season so I was not able to order one, but I was able to order a gluten-free flourless chocolate cake with pickup available the following day. They were very flexible (any time from 9 AM to 2 PM) and gave me instructions on where to go. For $45, the cake was a great portion and more than enough for 12 people (after a BBQ). I was expecting a denser, more chocolatey flourless cake since I've made quite a few but didn't have time since I was flying in from out of town; however, it was beautifully presented and everyone said it was a very good cake - some people had seconds. The woman who gave me my cake was friendly, gave great advice for leaving the cake out at room temperature, and seemed to genuinely take pride in their baked goods. She also offered us free cookies, which were very good. She was so personable and warm that I would definitely come back - hopefully will be able to get a buche de Noel next year too!

So glad I found this place! It was such an easy process to be able to order via email and Mary was helpful in providing suggestions to what I needed. Pick up location was a bit confusing since it's not a typical store front but it wasn't too hard to find in the end. I got the chocolate cappuccino cake which was delicious and very reasonably priced.

If you want some great tasting mini tarts for your party be sure to order tarts from here. I ordered the blueberry, raspberry, key lime meringue and lemon meringue tarts. Everything from the crust to the filling and fruits were fresh. I really appreciate the attention to detail and how professional and perfect looking the tarts were. I placed my order a week in advance and there were no problems with pick-up. Be sure to check them out.

Excellent service, caring staff and delicious pastries! Mary Michler has always been professional and listens to what the customer needs when placing an order. We have used them for many large events over the years and they never fail to amaze us at how delicious their pastries are. Gerhard Michler is a company that truly stands behind what they believe in. Amazing sweets baked with love.
