Jitterbug Sweets 

5.0

  • Starts at $100
  • Serves Harwood Heights, IL

Elevate your wedding celebration with Jitterbug Sweet's exquisite, hand-crafted chocolate-dipped confections. We specialize in creating visually stunning treats that taste as divine as they look. We have the option for custom flavors perfectly tailored to your unique love story.

From start to finish it was an incredibly tasty process working with Jitterbug Sweets. My husband and I knew we wanted to do an alternative dessert bar for our guests and reached out to Jitterbug to begin the planning process. We started with a tasting of her many different types of chocolates and candies, deciding on different flavor and texture combos that would be allergy friendly, child friendly, and of course include our own favorites. After an hour of delicious decision making (hardest work lunch ever) we decided upon three different bites, one which Jitterbug Sweets designed especially for our wedding - a truffle featuring tart cherry cookie whipped ganache, dipped in dark. From there we determined quantity and delivery options. While we did an open buffet table, her treats would also make a great packaged gift option for guests. Overall, her treats were a hit with everyone at our reception. I'm glad we had the foresight to put a box aside for ourselves otherwise we would have been out of luck. Thank you Jitterbug for a great product and experience! Couldn't recommend her more.

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

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!

Our ice cream cakes were incredibly delicious, and we got so many compliments from our guests! 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!

Hello future brides! I'm Audrey O'Shanna, owner and operator of Windy City Cookies. I specialize in custom sugar cookies. From favors to bachelorette parties, showers, and every event in-between. I love taking your vision and bringing it to life in the most delicious way! Fun fact about me, I took 1st place in the pastry division at "The Chicago's Best Baker" competition in 2018!

We had Windy City Cookies make these beautiful cookies for a graduation party. They were the perfect graduation theme cookies , and I asked her to individually wrap them with for me. They were beautiful—everyone loved them! I heard from reliable sources that they tasted delicious, too. Sadly, I did not have any of the cookies for myself. Hopefully next time!

  • Starts at $300
  • Serves Harwood Heights, IL

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.

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.
