The sourdough pancakes at little goat diner have been my favorite meal for years. When Sugar Goat bakery opened up and turned those pancakes into a cake, all my wedding cake dreams came true. ALL of the cake was gone at the end of the night and people could not stop talking about it. We worked with Brennan and I couldn’t have chosen a better person to help us. She was so kind and accommodating. We even got an extra surprise treat from her at the wedding that completely made our night. Any treats you get from sugar goat are delicious - and they made their cake exactly what I wanted for my special day.

Bartleby's Homemade Ice Cream 

5.0

  • Starts at $64
  • Serves Northbrook, 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!

Some people first thought I was nuts when I said I wanted ice cream cake at my wedding. But man, am I glad I did and went with Bartleby's! Why go the traditional route when you can have ice cream instead? Rachel and team were so easy to work with. I went pretty crazy on the flavors because there were so many good options. The guests absolutely loved it and said the cake was genius! Rachel also gives great tips so we didn't have any problems with it melting before it was given to our guests, and there are plenty of options for guests with dietary restrictions. If I could do it all over, I would eat more of the ice cream cake - hah!

Windy City Cookies

  • Starts at $4 per serving
  • Serves Northbrook, IL

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!

Having sampled Audrey’s cookies before at other parties, I knew that she’d create something beautiful and delicious for our bridal shower. I was able to fill out a simple online form, and then did a quick phone consult to discuss our themes. Audrey delivered on several amazingly detailed designs, each individually wrapped, almost too pretty to eat! But these are definitely cookies that SHOULD be eaten, as they’re soft and delectable!

Elisa’s Cake by the #Pound 

5.0

  • Starts at $300
  • Serves Northbrook, 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.

Milk Bar 

5.0

  • Starts at $300
  • Serves Northbrook, 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.

When we started planning our wedding, wanting a milk bar cake was one of the first things we decided on :) The team was so easy to work with and shipped us multiple cakes on time to our wedding location, and all arrived in perfect shape. The cakes were such a hit, our guests were so surprised to see milk bar all the way in upstate new york!

I first found out about Delish Cakes at a wedding expo in Rosemont. I do not remember if the samples there were mini cup cakes or something else, but they were DELICIOUS! I reached out to Delish Cakes to do my wedding cake and loved that we we were able to do a tasting (you take a container home to sample different a few flavored cakes, frostings & fillings), although it was not free. Communication usually was not an issue. We were very happy with how our wedding cake turned out & are excited to have more for our 1st anniversary.

Nadiya's Cupcakes 

5.0

  • Starts at $640
  • Serves Northbrook, IL
  • Offer

Custom wedding cakes for Chicago couples who want something artful, meaningful, and unmistakably their own. At Nadiya’s Cupcakes, we design refined, story-driven wedding cakes that feel personal, never pulled from a catalog. Each cake begins with a thoughtful conversation and unfolds into a design that reflects your celebration, your heritage, and the emotion of your day.

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.
