Jitterbug Sweets 

5.0

  • Starts at $100
  • Serves Northlake, 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! 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 do not like traditional cakes for any celebration so we knew we wanted to do an ice cream cake for our wedding day. We have ordered Bartleby's ice cream cakes for numerous birthdays and other events and they are absolutely delicious. In addition to being delicious, I was able to work with Rachel to make this Celiac safe and free of any gluten cross contamination with a simple phone call. She made sure to make my gluten free wedding cake the first cake the day, to ensure all of the ice cream equipment was clean. She also works with another gluten free cookie company to add them to the ice cream cake as well. I can’t recommend Bartleby’s ice cream cake enough. Everyone will rave about your dessert and actually devour it!

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.

Milk Bar 

5.0

  • Starts at $300
  • Serves Northlake, 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
My husband and I have always loved Milk Bar cakes and they have made appearances throughout our relationship- at birthdays, our engagement, and just for fun. So it was a no-brainer that we wanted to have it as our wedding cake. We got married in Greenville, SC in October 2022 and it was so easy to arrange for them to be shipped down and arrive 2 days before the wedding. They arrived at our home and we dropped them off with our caters who placed the 6" cake on top of a 10" cake for the wedding day! It looked beautiful and our guests raved about how great it tasted. Months later, we still have guests asking where it was from! We also provided plastic to-go boxes for guests to take home the extras at the end of the night. We had 80 guests and purchased four 10" cakes and one 6" cake. Thank you Milk Bar for the easy and delicious process!

Delish created an amazing wedding cake for us! We just wanted a small cake to cut for the tradition, but I was so delicious!! Trying the cake and frosting flavors was so fun, and we ended up picking fun flavors we originally wouldn’t have gone with if we didn’t do a tasting. The cake was adorable and just what we wanted!

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!

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!
