I have heard so many great things about Alons Bakery ever since I moved to Atlanta that I had to check the place out. But I honestly do not see what all the fuss is about. The cakes are pretty basic, mostly mousse cakes, and they are tiny! I ordered a lemon raspberry mousse cake with writing. The writing looked like someone scribbled a message at the last minute; it didn't look very professional at all. And considering the reputation and price of Alons I was expecting something much nicer. The cake itself tasted old as though it had been sitting in a cooler for days. There are better bakeries in Atlanta that give you better quality and value.
