  • Serves Harwood Heights, IL
  • Offer

Our fresh, custom, elegantly decorated ice cream wedding cakes are like no other dessert option in Chicago! I have been creating ice cream cakes for decades and have been serving wedding customers in Chicago since 2019, first through Bartleby's Ice Cream Cakes online and since 2024 from the Bartleby's Homemade Ice Cream shop. With my many years of experience providing wedding cakes of all sizes, flavors, and designs and in all kinds of venues and weather, you can be sure that your Bartleby's cake will be beautiful, structurally sound, and delicious!

My husband and I used Bartleby's for our wedding, and they were fantastic! W had tried their cakes prior to our wedding and loved them, so we knew we had to lock them in for desserts at our reception. We're both vegan, and were thrilled to find a vendor who made quality vegan desserts with a plethora of tasty options, with countless ways to mix and match flavors. Plus, how fun is ice cream cake?! Our guests loved it (it was entirely gone by the end of the evening!) and they also enjoyed the bonus ice cream sandwiches we also ordered from Bartleby's. The entire ordering process was super easy as well, from tasting all the way up until finalizing delivery.

Molly's Cupcakes 

5.0

  • Starts at $3
  • Serves Harwood Heights, IL

Welcome to Molly's Cupcakes! Ms. Molly was my third-grade teacher. Whenever my classmates or I had a birthday, she would bake us cupcakes. She had her special recipe for chocolate and vanilla cupcakes. In honor of Molly and as a way to help our kids and community, a portion of our profits is donated directly to schools in our community. Every time you eat a cupcake or sip a latte, you help our kids. So eat up!

So happy we decided to get our cake from Mollys cupcakes. We had our wedding in Chicago but live in NYC so the fact that Mollys had bakeries in both cities was a huge plus! They provided a free cake tasting of 6 different flavors, was very easy to work with and was priced very well compared to others I looked at. Their cupcakes/ cakes were DELICIOUS! Would highly recommend.

Milk Bar

  • Starts at $300
  • Serves Harwood Heights, 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
We had the pleasure of working with Milk Bar to provide cookies for our client's wedding in Aspen. They were a NYC based client who wanted to add a personal touch and incorporate their favorite local dessert, Milk Bar. Milk Bar was beyond wonderful to work with. Their communication from the very start was prompt and informative of the shipping process from NY to CO. The cookies arrived perfectly on time, even with all the winter storms and travel delays and the cookies were a huge hit at the event. We highly recommend Milk Bar for your event or any personal purpose they are beyond delicious and a true treat!

Delish Cakes

  • Starts at $30
  • Serves Harwood Heights, IL

Delish Cakes started in 2010 out of Alicia's family home. It quickly outgrew the house and a storefront was born shortly after! Delish Cakes will be 11 years old in August of 2021. Delish Cakes creates custom cakes and sweets for any occasion, and we love to make each order just as special as the clients who order them! Everything is created in small batches and made just for you. We do Cakes, cake pops, custom sugar cookies, sweet tables, cupcakes and more.

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.

Nadiya’s Cupcakes is a small business wedding cake bakery with an organic cake design style and a European-inspired cake flavor menu. Your wedding details are the most important ingredients in achieving your ultimate wedding cake vision, and you are part of every step to personalize it. Our cakes come tall and our specialty is buttercream; we do not use fondant. We love using fresh fruit and high quality raw ingredients to produce balanced flavors that have just the right amount of sweetness while retaining their natural, key-note taste; you and your family won't feel guilty going for a second slice, we promise.

Nadiya created the most magical Harry Potter inspired wedding cake we could have dreamed of. From our first tasting to the final reveal, the entire experience felt thoughtful, creative and enchanting. She took every idea we shared and turned it into something far more beautiful than we imagined. The cake itself was pure magic. The hand painted Forbidden Forest, the white stag Patronus, the elegant gold detailing, the “Always” inscription and the Golden Snitch on top all came together so perfectly. It truly felt like a piece of the wizarding world brought to life in the most elegant way. On top of being stunning, the cake was completely gluten free for my allergy and still tasted absolutely incredible. Our guests were amazed that something so beautiful could also taste so good. People are still talking about it. Seeing the cake on our wedding day was a moment I will never forget. Nadiya’s talent, care and attention to detail made the entire experience unforgettable. We are so grateful for the magic she created and for giving us a cake that was meaningful, delicious and everything we hoped for. Thank you, Nadiya, for bringing our vision to life so perfectly.

Welcome to my page! My name is Ethalle, and I always loved to watch baking and cooking competitions. There was always something incredible about seeing how much technical skills, ingenuity, and creativity it takes to create something so beautiful and delicious. It's my absolute pleasure to design your wedding cake and desserts to make your dreams a reality!

Ethalle's Cakes and Bakes was the absolute sweetest to work with for my wedding. I gave her my wedding mood board and she made sure all the cakes and bakes she created matched the theme perfectly! I was especially excited about the rice crispies and cake pops, but by the time I had a moment to grab some, they were all gone! Everyone kept raving about how delicious they were, and Ethalle even gave me a rice crispy treat afterwards (with my wedding colors!) so that I didn't miss out. Tasty custom sweets at a great value - I highly recommend Ethalle's Cakes and Bakes!

Baking is therapeutic for me. Having baked with my grandparents as a child, I've baked all my life and I really truly enjoy seeing smiles when people try my made-from-scratch sweets. My fun bubbly personality has transferred over into my business brand and products.

Such a great addition to our perfect day! The cupcakes we ordered were incredible and all of our guests loved them!
