The Cake was delicious I had 4 types of cake; Strawberry Crumble, Carmel Cake, Chocolate Cake, and Red velvet cake. Out of those 4 different cakes 3 of them were my favorite. My least favorite even though it's their best seller was the Carmel Cake. It wasn't because I didn't like it...it was just my least favorite. Over all the cake was soft and moist and man when I got home I heated the Chocolate and Red Velvet in the Microwave....lawd... Service was great the man behind the counter was cool to talk to didn't feel rush and even suggested a Caribbean restaurant "FH Jerkhouse" good food there too Location is on a second floor with stairs... read more

Super sweet servers as well as the baked goods!! Enjoyed my purchases.. mmmmm, GOOD!! Please check them out.... You won't regret it!!! read more

The guy working was very friendly and appreciative that I stopped to support the business. After a discussion about the most popular options, I made a decision to try the traditional butter cookie and the caramel cake. He was confident that this cake is the best in the land. The actual cake is good, but the frosting was very sugary. It's a very small space to walk in and order only. read more

Brown Shuga Bakery - Outside - Desserts Near Me - Bolingbrook, Illinois

Ordered for an event and absolutely loved them! They were gone in a few hours! The delivery was on time, and the cupcakes was absolutely delicious! I heard someone say these were the best cookies they ever had! read more

I went in to check it out. Everything looked delicious. I tried to buy two small cookies, but was told they only sell them in batches of 10. The worker who took care of me, was very kind and polite, but this did not help the fact that I left being disappointed. read more

Stopped at this bakery today right before closing. It's the first time we visited. Usually I bake German chocolate cupcakes for my husband's birthday, but this year I didn't get to it so we found Brown Shuga on our way home from dinner. We bought a slice of German chocolate cake, a slice of red velvet cake, and a coconut cupcake. Joe, one of the co-owners, gave my husband oatmeal cookies because it was his birthday today. How sweet! I tried everything we bought and it all was so moist and delicious. The frostings were amazing! The cakes and cupcakes were not overly sweet, so the flavors stood out. So glad we found this bakery! read more

It's hard to find a place where there is absolutely, positively NOTHING bad to say. I have been to a few bakeries and I was so ready to find fault in something, especially since I have an absolute passion for baking. Would it invoke memories of home? Would their selections be better than what I can do at home? Believe me when i tell you that this place is the truth. There are not many places that understand not just flavor, but LAYERS of flavor. Combine that with great customer service and glowing personalities and you can't beat it. Everything that they have available is on display right in the front of the store in a clear case. The presentation is nice and clean and the kitchen where they prepare these treats is completely visible and absolutely spotless. To me that shows great pride in what they do. I have had the banana pudding, peach cobbler, lemon buttercream curd cake, pineapple coconut upside-down muffin, and a sample of the cream cheese pound cake. The banana pudding is great! It's not a pudding mix either. This is like your grandma used to make. The custard is made from scratch, and you can you can taste the richness from the eggs. The bits of banana throughout are a pleasant surprise. The first thing that hits you when you open the container though is the vanilla. I'd be willing to bet that the extract they use for this is either homemade, Madagascar, or Hawaiian. Regardless, smells and tastes premium. The peach cobbler - this is amazing as well. The peaches - fresh. The dough - flaky, crisp, and buttery. It's not too sweet and has just the right balance of spice - cinnamon, nutmeg, and the peaches have not lost their identity in all of that and it's all tied together by this nice, buttery finish. Top notch. Lemon buttercream curd cake was amazing. The curd is definitely the star! It's so difficult to get the balance correct and most tend to oversweeten the curd. This is well balanced. The crumb on the cake is so fine and it's very moist. The buttercream is a close runner-up. That lemon flavor is carried throughout with lemon extract and lemon zest, and the sugar is well-blended so the buttercream is smooth. Moreover, it's not at all greasy. I could go on and on but this is long enough. Overall, they believe in customer service here - they will definitely put you first and make sure that you are completely satisfied or they will do whatever they can to make it right. WHEN you go in to get your favorite dish, tell Joseph and Della that I said hello, and tell them that Chris sent you. They deserve our business! read more

The cookies and the service were both excellent. It was worth the trip to Bolingbrook on a Sunday to pick them up. I will definitely go back for more. read more

I'm going to start by saying I found this bakery on the Too Good To Go app. I had never heard of them but who doesn't love baked goods?! I purchased my surprise bag and figured ok if it's not great then it's still a discounted bag. For those of you who don't know about this app- you buy a discounted bag of food that's leftover or would go to waste is the basic idea. It's to help slow food waste. So we never know what we will get, but it's usually worth more than the price. I use it as a way to try places I've never had before sometimes it's not worth it some places like this hidden gem, are very worth it!!!! This little bakery is in a strip mall not too far from me and I was so surprised how often I must have passed it without realizing! Let me tell you, I will never pass up this place again, they may be a small bakery but oh man, BIG FLAVOR!!! This may very well be my new fave sweet treat place. I wish I knew about them sooner, they are amazing. In my surprise bag I received a slice of yellow cake with pink frosting I think possibly strawberry, a slice of cake that was half chocolate and half vanilla with a delish caramel frosting or glaze I'm not sure but it was heavenly. Both cake slices were SOO tender and moist, dense without being too much, buttery and so flavorful. I also received a buttery cookie that I'm not sure flavor bc my children inhaled it in seconds. They said it was "the best cookie ever" and wanted to know when we can go back for more. We will DEFINITELY be back for more regular purchases, now that I know how amazing this bakery is. The gentleman who helped us was friendly and kind, and made our trip short but pleasant. I am now not surprised at all how they have a 5 star rating, they have earned every single star and I wish I could give them an extra gold star for the epic deliciousness they have introduced me to. I will be going back probably this week to try more of their items, they had a peach cobbler that looked to die for, knowing now how well they bake I'm sure it probably is!!! Keep up the amazing work, you are killing it!!!! read more

On a trip to Bolingbrook I was looking for a bakery and Brown Shuga's Yelp reviews made it a must try. The owner is personable and has an automated payment system that allows you to share as much information as you would like, sign up for rewards, and keep your personal information private. I purchased a slice of cream cheese pound cake (there other varieties on a rotating schedule), caramel cake (delicious and moist), chocolate cake (moist with a hint of coffee flavor), German chocolate cake (perfect balance of coconut and nuts), and lemon cake (melt in your mouth delish); single servings of banana pudding and peach cobbler; two lemon cookies and two butter cookies. The next time you are in Bolingbrook and looking for delicious desserts at an affordable price stop in. They are located in the area behind Checkers on the second floor. read more

I ordered a classic caramel cake for a birthday celebration. The owners and employees are so kind and the cake is simply out of this world. The frosting and filling is hand made and you can tell it's from scratch. The cake was moist and stood up on its own. I also tried a slice of the banana pudding cake and it is outstanding on every level. Delicious cakes. read more

My bride wanted to have a banana cream pie for dessert on her birthday, and I wanted to get something special (better than what you'll find at the grocery store), so I called Brown Shuga Bakery and they suggested their banana cream cake and it was incredible! She also suggested the caramel cake and that was just as good. If you haven't tried a caramel cake, you're missing out! Great service and amazing cakes. I'm definitely going back! read more

Delicious food from friendly people. Sweet potato pie was delicious. Lemon pound cake and lemon cake were outstanding.

Visited this bakery at their booth during the Taste of Bolingbrook. They has a large selection of cakes and treats refrigerated to keep their cool. I selected the red velvet cake but was not able to eat it until hours later. It was the best red velvet cake I've ever had. Light, fluffy and not too sweet. Perfect frosting not heavy but delicious. Looking forward to shopping their brick and mortar soon! read more

My family and I love treats, so I heard of Brown Shuga's bakery. I stopped in and was Greeted by Joe. He had a smile from ear to ear, I knew I was in a good place. I chose the Caramel, Red Velvet and German slices of cake, as well their cookies Lemon, Butter, Oatmeal, Peanut Butter and the Brown Shuga. Oh So heavenly those Cookies are, Delicious and Fresh. The Cake slices were Moist and Perfectly made. My thanks to Della and Joe for your Perfection at your Bakery. Thanks, Dominick. read more

I had to make a review the very second I had Ms. Della's sweet potato pie!!! Let me tell you, it's the absolute best!!! She's going to make me say it... it's the bomb.com!!! I have never had a sweet potato pie I really liked besides my grandma's and my own. Anyone else's pies have never worked for me. But, OMG!! This is so worth it!! I said I was only going to try a little bite...and no as I end this review, I ate the whole slice of pie. I will definitely be going back for more!! read more

Delicious !! Fresh !!! Flavorful !! Moist !! Tried the turtle cake and omg It was amazing the homemade Carmel ! No exaggeration !

Support this local business! The birthday cake I recently ordered (chocolate cake, whipped vanilla frosting) was by far the best chocolate cake our family has had in years. I've been trying for more than 15 years to figure out and perfect my late aunt's cake. This cake was it. Do yourself a favor and make everyone happy, and order here. I was happy to meet who I think was the owner/baker when I picked up, and everyone was wonderful. read more

Great service. Made sure my order was perfect would absolutely highly recommend to check out with great deserts.

We heard about a new bakery & were very excited to try since good bakeries are few and far between. We certainly were not disappointed. Excellent variety, ALL of my favorites. We chose the German chocolate cake which was excellent. We bought a piece of caramel cake but haven't tasted that yet. We had a nice discussion with the owners about buying a whole cake & the different pound cakes that change weekly. They gave us a loyalty card. Won't be long before we fill that up. Can't wait to go back. I only wish they were on the ground floor. The stairs are hard on our knees but the reward is worth it. read more
