Little Whisk Bakes provided excellent service and communication throughout the entire wedding planning process. Amanda was very personable and patient in working with my other vendors to ensure everything came together seamlessly.

Sugargoat

Chicago, IL
  • Starts at $4

as stephanie izard's newest concept, sugargoat is your go-to bakery and special occasion sweets shop, and is a place where our team carries out goatland's tradition of showcasing the love of fun flavor combinations. enjoy your fondest food memories turned into tasty dessert experiences and continue to make more memories enjoying sweets with friends and family!

My husband and I loved working with sugargoat for our wedding. As someone who doesn’t love cake but wanted the traditional experience of a cake cutting - I reached out to sugargoat to coordinate a tasting as I was intrigued by their adventurous flavors. We were able to set up a tasting quickly - the tasting consisted of their traditional flavors and a custom flavor that my husband and I came up with on our own - Peanut Butter, Jelly, Potato Chip. The bakery turned our flavor into the most delicious cupcake, so of course we included it as one of the layers in our wedding cake. I emailed inspiration photos of how I wanted our cake to look, and the team at sugargoat exceeded our expectations. Everyone was kind, and we loved communicating with Brennan. The team at sugargoat seemed genuinely excited about our wedding and our cake, it was nice to feel a personal connection with them vs. feeling like a number to them. Sadly on our wedding day, we did not have a piece of cake saved for her to eat, so I reached out to Brennan and they were able to make us a small cake of our custom flavor which we could eat on our Anniversary. 10/10

Our fresh, custom, elegantly decorated ice cream wedding cakes are like no other dessert option in Chicago!

From our tasting to the day of the wedding, Bartlebys had great communication and were wonderful to work with. We were a little worried about the cakes melting by the time they got to our guests, but Bartlebys provided really helpful instructions to our venue, and the slices were delivered to each table in perfect condition. We highly recommend them to other couples!

Elisa’s Cake by the #Pound 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
Chicago, IL
  • Starts at $300

I am a self-taught home baker and proud mother of one. My journey began as a paralegal, but everything changed when I baked and decorated my first cake in 2014 for Ella's 4th birthday. I wanted to create a memorable experience for her party, and little did I know it would ignite a deep passion within me. Soon I found myself baking for friends & family. Before I knew it, I had developed a substantial customer base. Over the years, I have come to realize that baking is a pure and simple expression of love and joy for others. In January 2020, I made the bold decision to follow my passion and pursue my dreams in the world of baking.

Elisa's Cake by the Pound was a fantastic choice for our wedding cake. Their communication throughout the process was prompt and consistent, which put us at ease. The quality of their work was exceptional - the cake was absolutely beautiful and delicious. We only needed a small cake for our wedding, and they were very accommodating, offering the perfect sized cake for a reasonable price. It exceeded our expectations and our guests raved about how great it tasted. We highly recommend Elisa's Cake by the Pound for any couple's wedding dessert needs.

    Milk Bar 
    Rating: 5.0 (8 reviews)
    • Starts at $300
    • Serves Chicago, IL

    Milk Bar is a sweet (and occasionally savory) shop that’s been turning familiar treats upside down and on their heads, shaking up the dessert scene since 2008. Bon Appetit magazine called us “one of the most exciting bakeries in the country.” But you can literally just call us Milk Bar. We’re not big on feeding the hype beast. But we’re super into feeding our flavorful treats to those who crave the unexpected.

    Awarded Best of Zola
    Having Milk Bar provide cakes and desserts for our Wedding was one of the best decisions we made in our planning. We've always been a huge fan of Milk Bar, some may even say obsessed, so it was only natural for us to include their treats on our special day. Juliet was our main point of contact for our order and was so easy and pleasant to work with. She provided such thorough and efficient information that helped us place our order with ease. She was in constant communication with us from order to delivery. We had the order delivered to our home prior to the event and everything was packaged so carefully and kept cool! We only had one issue with our order, we received a regular Birthday cake vs. a Gluten Free cake, but Juliet was quick to respond and help us resolve the issue! All the treats and cakes were a hit during the wedding and EVERY SINGLE piece was enjoyed by our guests!! No one could resist! I would absolutely recommend working with Juliet and Milk Bar for any orders big or small. Thank you for making our wedding day so special. :)

    We cannot say enough wonderful things about the incredible baker who created my son and daughter-in-law’s wedding cake and the most stunning sweet table trays. Every detail was absolutely perfect. My son is a huge Star Wars fan, and she brought his vision to life in the most beautiful and creative way—one side of the cake was designed especially for my daughter-in-law, elegant and classic, while the other side was a surprise for my son with the perfect Star Wars touch. It was not only gorgeous but truly a work of art. The sweet table trays were equally amazing—beautifully arranged, delicious, and a huge hit with our guests. You could tell how much love, talent, and care she put into every single piece. She went above and beyond for us, and we are so grateful. If you want someone who is passionate, artistic, professional, and incredibly talented, look no further. She made their wedding truly unforgettable.

    Mariam (The Cake Lady) made the most beautiful and delicious wedding cake. We heard so many compliments throughout the night—people loved the elegant, simple design, and the cake disappeared almost as soon as it was cut. The flavors were fantastic: the red velvet with chocolate mousse was a hit, and the lemon with strawberry was bright and fresh. She also made sure our guests with dietary restrictions had gluten‑free options, which we really appreciated. Working with Mariam was a joy. She took the time to understand our vision, offered thoughtful guidance, and delivered something even better than we imagined. We couldn’t have been happier and would recommend her wholeheartedly.

    Working with Let Them Eat Cakes was an absolute pleasure. Ava's communication through text and phone was perfect - she was always prompt in responding and made sure we were on the same page every step of the way. I would give her a 10 out of 10 for the quality of her work and value, and if I could go higher, I would. Ava was always on time and was able to navigate each day without my help.

    We met Franco and his cannoli cart at a farmer's market and were immediately impressed with the quality of his products--which kept us coming back week after week--and the friendliness of his whole team. Each cannoli is handmade with care. We loved Franco and the cannolis so much that we replaced a traditional wedding cake with his mobile cannoli cart and couldn't have been happier with the way it added to our wedding. The guests couldn't get enough, and using two cannolis for our "cake cutting" was unforgettable. Reasonably priced, reliable, delicious, all served with a smile and Italian charm. Don't walk, run to get yours!

    Chicago, IL
    • Starts at $4

    Molly’s Cupcakes opened in 2007 in the heart of Lincoln Park, Chicago. Within 2 years of being open, we won the Food Network Competition Cupcake Wars! This love of cupcakes started when the founder was just in third grade. Molly was his third grade teacher, and whenever there was a special occasion, she would make her special recipe cupcakes for her students. As John grew older, Molly’s care for her students never left his mind. He decided to open Molly’s Cupcakes in her memory. As our company has grown, so has our love for helping others create lasting memories.

    We loved working with Sabrina at Mollys cupcakes in Skokie. She made everything so easy for us and they were so flexible. It made wedding planning so much easier. I would definitely recommend cupcakes over wedding cake since you can get more flavors.
