Das Meyer Fine Pastry Chalet

What a charming little bakery! Such a find!!! As soon as you walk inside the door the employees have such local charm that is so hospitable as the delightful sweet baked scents whiff through the air… Each homemade baked food is so fresh and filled with delectable flavors that wow the tastebuds, Yum!

I have seriously tried everything they have, and I have never been let down. From fruit pastries to cinnamon loaf to cookies to the wedding cakes, over ten years I have gotten to pretty much all of it. I would recommend this bakery over anywhere else in this country.

Stop by on a Thursday morning to grab an 8 inch white cake. My husband and I decided to meet elope from Texas and read reviews and decided to wing it and have a small wedding cake. The cake was delicious I would highly recommend if you’re from out of state swing on by it’s definitely worth the stop.

My daughter and I chose Das Meyer for her wedding cake because we could go to their store full of display cakes and we could taste their specialty cakes. They made it just how we asked them to. It was so beautiful! Every layer was delicious!

I would like to start with that my wedding cake ended up being beautiful and was very good. The reason for my review is we went into the store a few times and every time we got different answers. The first time we were there we were led to believe that with our budget of $ 950 we would be able to have anything we wanted that we saw on the display cakes and stay within our budget. The next time we went in to order the cake the person who was «helping» us was very negative about everything that I came in with. I thought I was over prepared with pictures, colors and the cake topper but EVERYTHING I wanted was met with «no.» The example pictures I came in with were going to end up being way over our budget and the person helping us was not offering any alternatives. I wanted a four layer cake that would serve 150 people and they could not accommodate my request with smaller layers than what their standard cake came in. I was also told that my cake topper would be too heavy to use even though it wasn’t heavy at all. Needless to say the first time we tried to order we left very frustrated and considered going elsewhere. The only reason why we stuck with Das Meyer is because we had a package deal with our venue. The second time we came in to order we received vastly better service than before. The lady helping us was positive and had suggestions if what we wanted wasn’t going to work. She even had no problem what so ever with our cake topper.
Over all Das Meyer has really good cake but their customer service could sure use some work. It is very frustrating to be told different stories every time you come in and to be told that everything you came in with as examples are not going to work. Thanks to the lady who ended up taking our order. She was actually helpful.

I love this Bakery, they are always friendly and very reasonable. I’ve ordered birthday cakes, wedding cakes, baby shower cakes and they are always great tasting and absolutely Beautiful. I will never go to another place but here to get my cakes.

I discovered this bakery a few years ago and since then twice a year I purchase the same cake: Lemon Raspberry Poppyseed round. It’s quite delicious (5 stars). I’ve tried other cakes and they were Meh. Their wedding cakes look great, but haven’t purchased one.
The reason for my rating is the following.
1. Their Cash and In-​State Checks only policy. They are stuck in the 19^th Century and WON’T take visa/​mc. Reason: «we’re a family owned business and we’d have to raise our prices». Poor logic. Your cakes are expensive already, what’s another $ 3-​$ 7 for a cake/​item I crave? Also, studies have shown that people spend 40% more when they use credit/​debit cards, and the added expense of 2.8−3% in fees they’d pay (Uh, Hello… ever heard of Square or PayPal?) would still net them up to 37% increase in revenue. Sounds like a no-​brainer to me, but they’d rather send you away or to the conveniently located ATM on site (getting a kickback?) than take CCs.
2. Phone LINE Busy a Lot. Have you heard of getting more than one line. Or, here’s an idea: VOICEMAIL! It took me a while before I got through… was bombarded with a busy signal. This IS A BUSINESS, right?
3. Hot in the store/​bakery. Who wants to eat in an establishment that’s not cooled. It’s Denver in August! The door being open with an oscillating fan isn’t good for business. Maybe that’s what you want, people to get their goods and go. If your A/​C is broken, evap cooler not working well, smart business owners get a window or portable AC unit until the larger item is fixed.
It feels like this family-​owned business thinks things are good enough as they are. After all, business is good: cakes are baked and sold. Therein lies their biggest problem: Not Knowing that GOOD ENOUGH IS ALWAYS THE ENEMY OF GREAT. They could be a GREAT business if they’d upgrade their thinking and amenities.
There’s a difference from being financially responsible and tightwad-​cheap. :-(

Das Meyer was so easy to work with. They took time to figure out what we wanted in a cake and did an excellent job! The cake was gourgeous and tasted fantastic!

This is now our go to bakery for all special occasions. Family ran bakery that knows how to do it right. The older gentleman there is awesome and always helps us to make each occasion the very best with his delicious cakes. I’m glad The Das Myer team has gotten to be a part of the special moments in our lives. From weddings to birthday, they have went above and beyond expectations. My three favorite flavs– toll house cookie, chocolate caramel and chocolate raspberry truffle (the flavors of my wedding cake) I shopped every nook and cranny, every street and every corner looking for the perfect bakery– I’m glad I finally found it. They also make great breakfast pastries, so stop by some morning and grab a bite. Thank you Das Myer for the excellent service and superb quality!!! I am so delighted with My daughter’s 12^th birthday cake. We hope Mr. Myer got the flowers we dropped off today and knows he has touched my family’s heart

A cake like no other I’ve ever had! I have turned some of my non cake eating friends into cake lovers. I tell them that it’s not a cake, it’s a Das Meyer!

They have great coffee, cake, pastries. It tastes so good, but be careful not to go overboard. It’s easy to go into a sugar coma. They have a Halloween haunted house thing in Oct. if you like getting spooked. Great friendly service. They like plants, they’re EVERYWHERE.

Amazing, as always! They are baking the cakes for our wedding — I can’t wait to see how everything turns out! Dennis and family are wonderful and have gone above and beyond to make sure that everything turns out just right.
Dennis also gave us a great idea that I am very excited about — instead of doing one large cake or a tiered cake, do 6 inch rounds at each of the tables! This way, we are paying roughly the same price and have beautiful centerpieces taken care of at the same time. I have purchased different cake plates for each of the 17 tables to add a little bit of fun. Can’t wait!

You will not find a better family. this family is amazing. Their products are the best I have ever had. They designed my wedding cake which was beyond my expectations and they do every holiday cake I need.

Das Meyer has been a part of my life of many years! Nearly every birthday or holiday, my family orders a Das Meyer Custom Cake. I cannot emphasize how many friends fight to come to our family events purely for the reason that a Das Meyer cake will be served! Every event, Das Meyer has creatively triumphed their last masterpiece.
Das Meyer provides amazing customer service to the greater Denver Area, including celebrity birthdays, awards, events, etc. as well as weddings, holidays, birthday and more. They deliver order precisely on time and understand the urgency for punctuality.
The name Das Meyer has earned their vast prestige because of the long, tiring hours, dedicated artistic ability and family lineage. This Pastry Chalet understands pure craftsmanship and talent and shows it in the most illustrious ways.
There is a reason that they are the number one place for celebrities to order their perfect event cake.

Yummy! Very cute on the inside, very friendly. I wish they had a store in Kansas City.

The Danishes are to die for. Let me repeat that… The Danishes are to die for! If it’s a drive for you then make that trip out of your way to come here. They have macaroons and sweet breads and cheesecake. Best bakery in my opinion. A Quant little home/​shop sits in neighborhood of homes.

My man took me here after we dropped his mother off at the airport. Was it a «Thank You Honey For Being Such A Lovely Hostess To My Mother For Her Week-​Long Stay» appreciation token? Possibly. Rather, I think it was his raging hankering for some really, really good German pastries.
I can only speak for the cheese Danish, tea, and the environment but they were very good.
I felt like I was walking into someone’s German’s grandmother’s home because the place has quaint wood table and chair sets with lace curtains and cute dishes. The service is great and the woman behind the counter answered my questions as to what was the most popular and favorite treats.
Thank you to Mckenzie Mason and Peter Trask for finding this gem for us!

My dad wanted to visit the owner. So I was his driver for the day. We had a great time. Learned how the owner became a baker and how he managed to buy this delightful shop and land. It is family owned and his granddaughter was adorable. We hit it off right away. I asked her what was her favorite pastry and with her hands in the air she said with delight everything. What more can I say?
Well the Danish are buttery and full of fruit, cheese, nuts and love. The cherry chocolate chip one was an O M G for me. They make this amazing nutty sweet roll cake. We have had it at many parties at our home. However if your lucky enough you can buy it in a smaller Danish size. I was going to buy some for my guests I had coming that evening and one for my son. However when I went to purchase them they were all gone. Boo hoo!
It turned out ok because I ended up buying all different flavors. I would not have tried them if the ones I really wanted were still in the case. I also got 3 jalapeño cheese breads. Now now I shared the goodies with my dad and son. Wow! So yummy. Glad I live an hour away. I plan on going back right before Thanksgiving when I will have a house load of people?
I forgot to tell you they are famous for their beautiful wedding cakes. I watched them decorate a few plus a fun Halloween cake. Talking Halloween they have a Haunted House next door. Spooky!
What a fun outing that day. Coffee and an apple Danish to start and ended the day with a yummy cherry chocolate Danish.

We had our wedding at the Westin this year and Das Meyer is gracious enough to be their cake providers. Included with our package was a basic cake that matched the number of guests we had attending.
I attended two of their Saturday sampling days and felt very welcomed! The flavors available for tasting are primarily their upgraded fillings, but you can get a good idea of what the basics would taste like. They work with fresh fruits and are very willing to outline all of the ingredients available to make the filling what you wish. Be sure to come early as the shop fills up quickly and tasting isn’t a fast process. There are books and display cakes galore to show what styles they offer.
I came with a picture of what I would like, which was a square bottom with two rounds on top. We ended up going for very basic frosting and beading design along each layer, as the price to add fondant and sugar flowers was super high. I had found a cake plate to use that matched that in the picture, but 2 weeks before the wedding, found out that the cake would be twice the size of my plate. Check sizing before buying anything! We ended up with a giant silver base that didn’t match our wedding theme and we had to pay to rent.
The cake didn’t turn out exactly like the picture (I think due to having to be big enough to feed 100 ppl), but we were still very pleased with it. The cake was moist and the fillings (strawberries with jam, lemon, and raspberry jam) were all very fresh and delicious.
Definitely keep in mind that it is a cash or cheque only business and that they are closed Sunday and Monday. Our cake supplies had to be returned by the following Thursday, but due to work, I was only able to bring them out to Arvada on Saturday. I called during the week and thankfully wasn’t penalized for being late.

Our wedding cake was absolutely beautiful and I was surprised with how much I loved it. Niwot Florist supplied the flowers and Das Meyer did the arranging and decorating.
I know people don’t like talking about how much they spent on their wedding, but when I was researching I always wanted to know the price. We had three tiers and three flavors: berries in a cloud, chocolate caramel, and carrot cake. Since these were all specialty flavors they cost a little more. The total for 100 servings with delivery to Boulder cost us a tad over $ 500.
It was completely worth it.
I can’t wait to get our (included) one year anniversary cake!
P. S. You do have to pay for your cake in cash (or check) so be sure to keep that in mind.
